What are some relationship red flags, things to look out for in a partner that don't bode well for the future?

I'm looking on a larger scope than the usual red-pill sexuality/fidelity stuff: career & finance, work ethic, cleanliness, habits, ambitions, health, sex life, that sort of thing.

Particularly want to hear from people whose (long-term) relationships didn't work out and can look back and identify the early signs/omens.

Each relationship is different, but ask yourself how you will handle selfishness, narcissism, level of cleanliness. You're looking for a person you can't live without, not someone you can bear living with. There are always going to be things to fight about, so make sure you are ready and able to put up with sharing your life. Good luck!

Also
Lying, to themselves and to you as well
The next girl who lies to me and catches herself in her own lie I'll dump immediately

My red flags:

Someone who doesn't know how to properly convey emotions.
Anger issues.
Unhygienic and messy.
Being very hard to talk to about any concerns or issues relating to the relationship.
Thinking that cuddling while watching tv is foreplay.
A porn/masturbation addict.
Any kind of addict.
Someone who calls sex lines.
Overly private.
Workaholics.
Poor eating habits.
Little dating/relationship experience.
Has many friends of the opposite sex. (one of the girls/guys kind of people)
Doesn't drive.
Unemployed.
Aloof.
People who dislike their parents/Mother for no valid reason ("She is annoying" type stuff) This is a big one.

Whoa, that's some true shit right there.

ITT: High standards

No wonder why you all can't find or maintain a long term relationship

If you can't tell whether or not someone is a emotionally stunted piece of shit just by spending time with them then you probably deserve to be in garbage relationships.

It's never goes like this
>Oh he's so great I love spending time with him.
>He plays a lot of videogames though, huh.
>I knew I should have ditched you when I saw you playing League of Legends! It was clear you were going to cheat on me even then.

Clearly if someone plays video games to the neglect of your relationship that is a redflag, but the problem is that they play video games. So the redflag is really "they neglect your relationship", which isn't a redflag so much as a "fucking duh".

Having a father who won't let you see your loved one.

He's forcing me to break up with my girlfriend, it's a long story, but yesterday I only half-assedly cleaned his pool, and this was his reaction, he said he was serious.
>>

>Passive aggressive
>Makes a huge drama out of everything
>Threatens to break up
>Talking to relationship problems with other people
>Very bad at handling stress
>Ignores problems and doesn't accept advice
>>
If she's a communist
>>
Red flags for me:
Lack of shared interests.
Inability to appreciate interests I have, regardless of trying them, i.e. a different 'taste' in interests. This one goes both ways, obviously.
Incompetence
Over-dependance
Over-avoidance
Histrionic personality disorder
Irrationality
Inability to think realistically
Inability to talk openly about problems
Dishonesty
Arrogance

and plenty more, but I don't think I could be in a long-term relationship with someone who hits one or more of those. Over-dependence, I could maybe put up with if they were otherwise perfect.
>>
They talk shit about their friends(or anyone) behind their back a lot

They have no respect for their family or yours

They wont let you do things you want while they do everything they want

Selfish

If theyre a hypocrite
>>
>Unreliable communication, texting, phone calls, etc for days at a time
>Intense and unfounded jealousy
>Multiple opposite gender friends that clearly want to fuck them
>Happily unemployed/mooching off parents with no remorse
>Inability to control anger (throwing things, yelling)
>Inability to let my feelings take priority (for example, any time my partner makes me sad, they're sad for making me feel sad, and thus I have to comfort them even though MY feelings were hurt)

That's all I've got.
