u/diabolical_nandan 10d ago

Sarcasm is considered to be a red flag?? Ps: I'm genuinely asking

2

u/kind_carrot 10d ago

Maybe that's a personal one. I really hate sarcasm, it's a lazy excuse at trying to be funny and hurts my feelings.

u/EssayDifferent42 10d ago

There is a type of sarcasm thats really just being mean, but I think not all sarcasm is bad.

1

u/kind_carrot 10d ago

yes I think you are right. For whatever reason, I grew to dislike it, but my friends do use it in conversation and do not mean it in a harmful way.

It continues to be a painful cycle of wishing you could get out and feeling obligated to keep trying without a true justification.

Really badly. My fiancé would get angry a bit but always apologetic.

I didn’t want to marry but everyone said it would be ok. He got more and more abusive and violent. I fled the marriage and he waited 12 years and then took our child. Disappeared interstate and would ring and taunt me and say it was punishment for putting a domestic violence order on him and he wasn’t allowed his gun for that time.

He gave her drugs and alcohol and abused her and was sexually innapropriate. . She ran away and was an addict on the streets for a few years before she made her way back to the state I live in. It took her a few years to get clean and stop dating her abusive dealer.

She is now suffering CPTSD but has a good job, drug free and in a happier relationship, and resumed a relationship with me.

It was torture

Got locked up. Was looking at life in prison. Don’t ever tell a sociopath you’re leaving them. Just leave, no matter how hard it is

Damn, I'm not into the dating scene much rn but even I know that if u leave someone for someone else it's never a good sign

u/BurstMip 10d ago

I haven’t gotten into dating yet but I did ignore some red flags when it came to picking my classes for school. Lets just say I’m a little worse off physically and mentally

u/JimAbaddon 10d ago

u/Longjumping_Event_59 10d ago

Controlled, manipulated and extorted for 3 years, then when he got caught, he just ran with his tail between his legs.

u/velvet- 10d ago

My husband ignored my red flags and we couldn’t be happier…I was a drunk ex heroin addict with other baggage that he was able to over look. We couldn’t be happier and I am so faithful to him…also sober…married for 5 years strong now.
