    All my away from work time, I want to spend alone. At this point in my life, I guess I am a grouchy old man :-). I can not wait till retirement so I can get up at 0600AM and make other people late for work ;-P

    LOL, when my husband and I were in our 20's, we would be in a rush to get to work. There was a seniors community on the way. So at 6:30, they were up, pulling out into traffic, putting on their brakes and then creeping up to the 7-11 at the corner to get a coffee and the newspaper. And making us crazy, wondering why the *kitten* they were out there in the way of people trying to get to work. I mean, they had all day.

    I will judge you on your cheese of preference.

    What cheese is your favourite?

    All the cheeses!

    I'm a momma's boy. I'll clutch onto your skirt tail in public and ask if we can get ice cream later. :pensive:

    -I get needy and want lots of cuddles.
    -My house is either complete perfection or a mess (OCD), there is no in between really.
    -I say things too soon because I start getting the feels...

    Being single can sometimes be toughhhhhhhh. <3

    Gah.... red flags about me....

    -I'm lazy

    -I'm very stubborn

    -I won't argue, just get quiet and shut down.

    -I can hold a grudge for quite some time.

    -This could be different if I met someone I wanted to be with, but at this point, if I have an issue with someone, and it's a repeat issue, I'm just walking away. I am more inclined to just cut you out of my life, than try and make it work.... again and again and again.


    -I always think I'm right. And will..... (usually grudgingly) admit when I'm wrong... quietly. Maybe. Don't push it.
    -When it comes to dating, I don't do second chances. If a breakup happens, its done. Over. Never again.

    -I am a pushover with those I care about, and depending on how often it happens, I can be resentful about it. But I won't say anything.

    -I'm passive aggressive.

    -I make excuses for other people's shortcomings.

    -I refuse to change anything about myself until I decide I want to.

    -I am picky when it comes to food (could be seen as a red flag to some....?)

    When you meet someone that pushes you out of these comfort levels they are a very special person. Some people go into fight/flight mode but it sounds like you might be someone that goes into a freeze mode. I do the same thing. (and i should note, these aren't red flags...just things that make you the wonderful you that you are)

    It's more like someone who has no follow through. And me not being a pushover about it.
    When I tell someone that something they say or do often, is hurtful to me in some way, and it continues, I am more inclined to deal with it and bring it up over and over, if it's someone I care about.
    But if it's a person I am not close to, and I mention it once or twice, there won't be a third time. I'm out.

    I do like to be pushed out of my comfort zone, and I have done it to myself many times. Some of those experiences have been amazing. But the timing needs to be right, or I will push back and be biotchy about it. hahaha
    I am an introvert and need to mental prepare for things in my own way. :)

    It takes no upper body strength to hold a grudge. Lose my trust, lose me.

    In myself:
    -I'm too trusting to a fault and always want to see the best in people and believe they always have the best intentions
    -Annoyingly self-conscious
    -SUPER ANTI-confrontational


    What I run from:
    -Too much too soon, like someone else here said a few pages back. If you tell me you love me on the 3rd date, peace out T-Swift.
    -Being mean/rude to servers

    You'll want me to call you out when I feel I've been wronged. If I don't that means I either don't think you're worth the time or I did something petty instead.

    Red flags (all from a first date Tuesday night):

    1. Says 'all fat people are lazy'. Dismisses my 5 inch thyroid scar.
    2. Says 'I'll grab your snatch right here' (*gasp*)
    3. Brags about all his stuff and how much money he spends on it.
    4. Has 3 more cocktails after the first 3 which makes him sloppy and handsy.
    5. Insists I'm the best that's ever happened to him, even though he only talked about himself (I take this one back...it's probably true.)

    Yep, I really know how to pick 'em. *sigh*

    When he sends you a selfie and bath and body works hand soap is in the picture along with some pink hand towels but he claims he single.

    :D:D:D this has happened to me. He finally fessed up.

    2 was awful! It ended up being comical. I didn't think it could get any worse and then it did, over and over. I forgot he insulted my car too. Laughed because it was a 2005. I laughed because I don't have a car payment.

    Gotta kiss some frogs...

    I could see that after 2 you might have thought he'd be the next president of the US.

    TBH, I don't know that I could have got past 1. It is clear that you put others feelings above your own, which is a two edged sword all
    on its own. Sorry you got the *kitten* edge on this one. Good things comin.
