‘Oversharing. It can be comforting but then YOU’RE SUDDENLY INVOLVED.’
-EchoesOfZhivago

‘People pleasing. They seem so generous and considerate, but once you get to know them you realize it can come from a place of anxiety and that they are (unconsciously) manipulating people to like them, they can have trouble saying (or even knowing) what they need, they’ll create covert contracts and resent you for not reading their minds, they won’t be able to set boundaries with others, etc.’
-Locus-Maximus

‘They’re friends with everyone. At first, it seems great. They’re social, they’re outgoing, and they’re easy to get along with. You think it’s an awesome trait.

‘Then you realize they can never truly be your friend because everything you say gets out somehow. You can’t confide in them. If there’s a disagreement, everyone thinks you’re the issue because everyone has them as a friend. Very similar to the whole “a friend to all is a friend to none.”’

‘Always wanting to do exciting stuff. Eventually you’re going to have a boring day where you need to cope with being bored or create a conversation without having something around you to talk about.’
-Iezahn

‘Non-confrontational people. Conflict is necessary in deep relationships’

‘Lots of “therapy speak”. It can signal emotional awareness and an ability for self-reflection and psychological mindedness at first, but often – especially if it’s excessive – it can reveal a tendency for self-centeredness, conceit, and arrogance.’

‘Green flag 💚 – very social and happy , overly positive and brightens the room , can work any room or social situation.

‘Red flag ♥️ – loves the attention too much, is flirtatious with others because it’s a quick way to get positive attention, always has to be the center of everyone’s world.’
-LonleyNutBucket

17.

‘Being a people pleaser – they’ll throw your needs under the bus to be liked.

‘Being calm all the time – you’ll struggle to get them to be invested or passionate.’
-UltimateButtToucher
