We can all give ideas for red flags but really red flags are personal to you and your standards, views, beliefs, experiences etc. A red flag is a feeling or sign when you are speaking w someone and something they say or do doesn’t feel right in your spirit and your intuition is saying…no. Just always make sure your not ignoring that and you should have nothing to worry about.

18:58 not justifying this behaviour but coming from a very toxic family, I think it’s important to understand that adults who were raised in non-Christian or very disfunctional households don’t want to be held responsible or penalized by our parents actions & decisions in life. Not everyone grew up in a two parents loving household and like Stephon at 19:46 said it *does* turn off people. I really wanted to point it out because I had to go through deliverance from generational trauma and I accepted now that my true family is the *kingdom family*. Plus, when meeting a men I can’t just bring him to my parents because he needs to be prepared and willing to face whatever. Please pray for me because this had stalled potential great relationships in the past (before I got delivered) 🙏🏾

What I love about God is that he gets the glory out of all our circumstances and literally nothing is too “messy, toxic, dysfunctional” or whatever the case may be that he can’t turn around for our good! He said he causes all things to work together for our good for those that love him. So be encouraged that nothing can hinder you from Gods promises when we invite him to turn our life around for his gloru! God will redeem the time and give you a beautiful love story in his perfect timing! Excited for you 💕

I just watched you all on the future wifey podcast, and I am amazed at how God connected you all. I am a single mom and has been burned in relationship, and at this point praying to God for a God fearing man to respect, honor and love me. I know that if he did it for you all, He will do it for me. I admire you all. God is always working in Jesus name.

If I date any guy as a single Christian woman I dont bring him into my family life because I have to see whats really happening first. My red flags of a man, communication, how he speaks/treats me, how he pays attention to things, not intentional, cant make decisions,dont have a positive outlook for life, not a go getter, to layback, not family oriented, not loving, understanding and cant serve as a man.

Hey sis and bro!! Y’all my absolute favorite couple! This video, just like others has so much nuggets. This video is much needed. I have ignored so many red flags 🚩 in the past, because I was giving others the benefit of the doubt, based on my heart and because I wanted genuine love so much! To be honest, genuine love shouldn’t be forced. You shouldn’t have to beg for time to be spent, texts, calls or FaceTime shouldn’t go unanswered. I was sleeping on myself, but I’m woke now! I know my worth and going forward, if I see red flags 🚩, orange flags, blue flags or purple flags, or any color of the rainbow 🌈 flag, if the flags are not white flags 🏳️, I’m out ✌🏾 and all they will see is the 💨 💨 💨 smoke from my 🚙 leaving!! 😂😂😂 Keep these videos coming as they food for my soul! Love y’all! 🤎🤍

One thing that stood out to me was the way she could share her past dating experiences that weren’t the best in the presence of her husband. As women we know how risky it can be to share previous dating experiences with new partners for fear of judgement or that they would use it against us or try to manipulate us. I believe when we experience pure love, we can be fully vulnerable and feel safe in doing so. Thank you both for such a positive video 🙏🏾 ❤️

Hi beautiful couple, great red flag content. Ignoring those red flags can cause a lot of heartache and pain. Sometimes we give people the benefit of the doubt and let things slide. But if the behavior is habitual then it's time to run for the hills. Especially close pay attention if they have anger, entitlement, compulsive issues. Another major red flag is the have narcissistic traits. If so, save yourself the misery by cutting off the connection asap.
