Dating Information: Red Flag Check List


🚩He Doesn’t Drive 

Each partner should have a car that they own/lease and are legally able to drive. I found myself constantly driving to my date’s side of town and wondered why he wasn’t coming to mine. It can be a red flag if the person you are going on dates with / dating never drives. This could mean a suspended license. Or other driving-related issues. This happened to me twice and neither of the men were forthcoming with the information until I pushed to know why I was the only one driving.

 

🚩He Doesn’t Pay  

It’s a red flag if a guy says he likes you, hangs out with you, has sex with you, but doesn’t pay for dates with you. Or he will only pay for small items like a drink from the gas station, a snack at the dollar store, or a cheap meal at a fast-food restaurant.  This could be a sign your date does not have a regular, sustainable income to take you out. In other words, he is broke. While money is not everything, you must decide if you’re okay being the one to pay for everything: from the gas to go see him to a date out. And how long you would be okay with it if he has no job. Or he chooses to earn money in ways that aren’t guaranteed, such as gambling.


🚩He Calls Drunk

If he calls you while drunk to pick a fight and to break up. Or to inform you that you deserve a better man than him.  Maybe he acts like nothing is wrong  after all the drunk dialing. This is a major red flag! Especially if this happens more than once!  And if he is doing it without any awareness of what time it is. Calling or texting you in the middle of the night while you're asleep. If he is leaving you I love you, I miss you, or I'm sorry text messages.  It’s probably an indicator that he and alcohol are not a good mix.  Or worse, this is a sign that he has a drinking problem. Addiction is a lifelong process and not for the faint of heart. Choose wisely and really do your research before diving into this kind of relationship.

Implantation Dips & Raised BBT

An Implantation Dip is when your basal body temperature (BBT) dips below your cover line post ovulation, usually said to occur around 7 to 9 days pass ovulation on average and then continues to rise without falling below the cover line again. 3 to 5 days pass ovulation for implantation dips is said to be rare.  Some believe implantation dips are myths, because of varying results in dips and outcomes for pregnancy.  Usually it is said when your BBT stays above your cover line without dipping below the cover line, it is a sign that you're pregnant.   This is just a theory, but it seems for some early implantation dips, may lead to earlier positive pregnancy tests. The exception to early implantation dips theory I have found is that  some women get early positive pregnancy tests as a result of having a multiples pregnancy, some women gets dips in many of their cycles that do not result in pregnancy and some women like me don't get dips during a c...
