    If she treats the guys she is not attracted to gracefully and kindly that is a green flag. For example if a guy she is not attracted to approaches her and the guy is respectful and nice, she is kind towards him and doesn't knock his confidence, but declines gracefully.

    You described my wife to a "T". But, she actually had 8 green flags. My cat that I've had for almost 15 years has never, ever left my lap for anyone else's. She also never chose anyone's lap over mine. I had long term relationships and family that came by my house a lot. One day I was sitting in a recliner and my Susan was sitting on the couch. Miss Kitty just got up and went and sat on Susan's lap. I was in absolute shock! I took that as a sign that Miss Kitty approved of Susan. We just had our 10th anniversary a couple of months ago.

    A green flag that gets so overlooked is sticking with your partner during the low times whether it was a job loss or going through medical episodes. My fiancée drove me to the ER when I had asthma and through COVID. She also bought me dinner when I was losing a job or had no money. I’m better now and I am not where I’m at financial wise but I want to make sure she deserves to be spoiled by me for putting up of what I went through.

    I come from an Islamic culture but was raised here in America so dating and meeting men has always been the most difficult aspect of my life. Recently, I went out with a man after having not dated or had romance of any kind for 4 years (my preference based on my culture). This man brought me out of my comfort zone with his kindness and gentleness towards me. When we went out on our first date, I kept saying “thank you” so much so that he told me he was going to get me a shirt that said “thank you” on it. He then proceeded to tell me that he was highly interested in me because I was feminine and kind and because I wasn’t a tomboy or masculine. At first I was confused but even myself, as a woman have observed that a lot of women act very masculine nowadays. After a couple of dates I proceeded to make him lunches (he works across the street from my job) and bring them to him. In my culture, this is normal behavior from women, in fact the bare minimum. It’s crazy how backwards it is now and luckily gives us feminine women the upper hand but I tend to feel deeply for the men that just want a normal feminine woman that isn’t going to spar with them 24/7. Unfortunately this kind of woman is a rarity being that even other women look down upon women like this.

When I met my cute, goofy semi-goth girl who is now my wife she surprised me early on with her passion for sewing and dressmaking as well as her cooking - which she used to present her "credentials" as GF material early on. She always had a project going on like making outfits for herself and friends as well as studying as a PT student. She was a busy bee, plus working towards being a professional carer of course. Plus as said, communication. We could just talk about anything really. She was inquisitive and read widely, then we'd talk about that.

    Getting a woman to show gratitude and say "thank you" is like getting a woman to admit she's wrong: it rarely ever happens. When a woman shows you appreciation and gratitude in this era of entitlement, it shows her humanity and overall character because most women believe men SHOULD do things for them just because which is just ridiculous. Also, for as much as women talk about open & honest communication being necessary, they sure do expect men to be mind readers because they don't know how to do the thing they expect men to do which is be open & honest.

    My partner and I have amazing communication. She’s 26 and I’m 29. But she’s sweet and kind and shows so much gratitude. She makes me feel extremely valued . And she follows my lead . While I let her put the emotional emphasis. I think the biggest ways guy mess up is being sensitive and fearing being open . If you’re not open with your needs, you’ll become needy, which women hate . If you speak of your needs clearly , you guys will be on the same page . It’s not just my partner . But lately I’ve been attracting amazing women , with Great careers , a great outlook on the world . Being healthy and fit inside and out , not playing games etc, And I currently live with my mom. I haven’t graduated college yet due to me taking a different path after highschool . But my past isn’t a negative , most women love that I was able to change and become a new man all on my own….I’m merely an upstanding person who values myself . And is kind and respectful to everyone . Merely by being a cut above the rest mentally , attracts me so many great people . Once upon a time I used to attract toxic women, but at the same time, I had a warped perception of what love was , idolized women, and was overly sensitive myself and needy . It’s cliche , but you attract what you are .

    Women neither apologize nor show gratitude. It makes no sense, but it seems like women would rather blow up a relationship, rather than say ‘I’m sorry or thanks’. And this isn’t just age… I’m 54 and divorcing. My wife said ‘I’m sorry about a dozen times over 5 years.’ Rarest words she ever uttered. She has to “win” at that moment… well, she might feel she won the point, but lost me.

    Saying "thank you" and being appreciative is so important. I can not stress how important it is that women appreciate you. When I wasn't appreciated it literally ruined my marriage and ultimately I would say that was what lead to the divorce. She blamed me for her problems (which I wasn't) and didn't appreciate anything I was doing for her. She did appreciate me before we were married and things were great but she just got sorta different and she scapegoated me for her mistakes and she didn't appreciate anything I did and ultimately that lead to me withdrawing and pushing her away too. Her response to my withdrawal was cheating and that was the final end of it and it was over. But frankly the root of the end was that she didn't appreciate the little things or the big things that I did. She just felt like she was entitled to it and she blamed me for her own stuff and it ultimately killed the marriage. Look I know that I am not perfect but I tried. Being appreciative is the bare minimum. It's acknowledging the worth of the person that you are appreciating. Even if you are not perfect you still have value. Not being appreciated is denying that value. Who wants to be with someone who makes them feel worthless? Heck I have been single since my divorce and I have no desire to go back into the dating pool. Probably because I feel more appreciated by myself than I did with my exwife. Women just appreciating a guy have a profound impact on the guy, but them not appreciating the guy has just as profound of a negative impact too. So I guess my advice to men is to make sure that the woman you give your time to appreciates it. And to the women I would suggest that you keep in mind that men need appreciation. We're only human.

    Courtney, these are some other green flags in girls, according to my experience: She likes kids. She is kind to people in general. She actually verbalizes what she likes about you. She cares about the wellbeing of your friends and family. She enjoys making plans with you. She has at least one passion and follows it. She doesn't enjoy complaining overall. She has at least one friend who truly loves her. She acknolowdges your effort and she motivates you. She is reasonable with her money (and yours, potentially). She verbalizes clearly and carefully how she feels about you and the relationship between you two. She invites you to be part of her activities and lets you invite her to yours, never being pushy. She cares about the way she looks, in a healthy way. She has a respectful attitude towards knowledge. She supports you when you have a setback in your life. She talks to you about her dreams openly.

Whatever mistakes they are, we are all flawed beings. Has realistic expectations. Treats people with respect (doesn't look down on people) Takes care of herself physically. Huge green flag, kindness. Takes interest in others. Being just an overall genuine person. Dresses modestly. That's so sexy when a woman is confident enough that she doesn't have to show as much skin as possible.

    #10 is so important. I just ended a relationship with a girl I was totally in love with because of one single reoccurring problem that she wouldn’t take responsibility for. I didn’t even need her to agree that what she did was wrong but just apologize and take responsibility for it just because she loved me. But she couldn’t. I think the issue is that girls are more easily sensitive to feeling shame about themselves and for many girls hearing the words “this hurt me” gets equated in their minds to “I’m a bad person” and they will be defensive and deflect blame to not feel that shame. It was just ironic because of how emphatic she was about “emotional availability” and “vulnerability” but when push came to shove , she was the one that couldn’t be vulnerable and apologize for the sake of the relationship because she didn’t want to “grovel at my feet”. It makes me scared to open up again and be vulnerable myself like I did when I was just open and honest with her about how she hurt me. #10 is the most important for me at this time

    So after hearing all 7 of these green flags, I realized that my now-ex-wife did not have ANY of them. In fact she was often the opposite. But, she's been kind of sneaky in how and how slowly these crept up and became RED flags. I've since realized, after much research, that my ex is a "Covert Narcissist". This little gem of a title is considered one of the WORST types of people to try to get along with. Read up on it. You might find out (hopefully not too late) about someone in your life that's making you crazy. I ended up being married for 20 years. I didn't even find out the details on WHY I was always feeling so uneasy and so judged and so much more, until AFTER I finally got divorced. I only knew, FINALLY, that I just could not go on in that relationship. What it boils down to is that it's NOT one or a few heavy duty bad things that the person does, where it's obvious. It's like the Chinese water torture that lasts and lasts and each "hit" or "slap" is not that bad by itself. But, it wears you down over years. Anyway, maybe others can be aware of this.

    Recognizable, be holding back on diagnosing by yourself though. Especially the covert narcissist and the subtype petulant of BPD can be easily confused. I always like to say I recognize certain patterns, but I don't have the graduationpapers framed on my wall. Have a proffessional do the diagnosing (which probably won't happen anyway, since they're not gonna seek help) and you just keep in mind those red flags for yourself. Never again.

But in reality it is more important if these girls are capable of recognizing issues and working on themselves. I know a few girls whose parents are excellent but turned out to be annoying brats.

    I'd like to distinguish fake positivity is a big red flag. It's tough meeting anyone who is genuinely positive, but I think it's easier to spot in the way they approach the future, like: "Oh I had that setback but I'm working on it and I'll end up better for it" as opposed to someone who looks at the world through rose colored glasses or thinks great things will come to them if they just sit and wait instead of put in effort.

    I think that was the point or at least one of the points being made in the video. So many girls out there without a common sense of decency that guys are only asking for the bare minimum. A Muslim girl commented how she makes her man lunch from across the street and that to me is a green flag and for many men that is a luxury (in North America). The green flags mentioned in this video are minimums everyone should exhibit but just happens to be what North American men are looking for since the minimums are hard to find in women.

And the crazy thing was she was single. She was a bit of an Ice Queen and probably intimidated most men, plus this was in KL where she was a bit of an outsider. But she was absolute 10 to me and actually very friendly once you made her comfortable.

    One huge "green flag" that I rarely see (even in some otherwise friendly or charming people) is SENSITIVITY: there is no replacement for a meaningful perceptiveness to the feelings and problems of others, and I have a very unique story to tell, in order to explain it . . . As some might remember, I'm the guy with Asperger's Syndrome who occasionally posts here. But back in college, long before I was diagnosed, the one person really sensitive to my symptoms was someone who knew nothing about it. I'll call her "Kris," and she was a beautiful, rather bright young woman who stage-managed a great deal in the theater department where I studied. Early in my years there, I had an autistic/ADHD "brain fart" that caused me to miss/be late for a rehearsal for the show I was on the set crew for, and the embarrassment pushed me into what I now know was a meltdown. As I tried to recover my composure, she briefly put her hand on my shoulder. Ansd when I unintentionally flinched, she responded softly, "you don't like being touched." I had never realized this before. But she was right, and it's actually one of my most prominent social problems to this day: personal-space issues. And she immediately picked up on it without issing a beat or taking offense! I can't remember when I've seen that kind of sensitivity in the years since, and this was literally half a lifetime ago. "Kris" was a real keeper. Unfortunately, she was taken, as well as probbaly being too mature for me at the time.

    Thanks for making this video Courtney. I honestly feel like something you've helped me see over the last bit is actually wanting to see more of this behavior towards me than the other. I know we call it unicorn behavior but it's honestly not even much to ask for if you do all these things for people anyway and ask for return behavior. It's called self respect. While I ask a lot out of them and I think women might see it that way but I ask a lot out of myself and want myself to be the best I can be. So I should be able to ask that in a life partner. It makes it easier to know what to pay attention for and when it's a good time to progress a relationship. Think of the green flag as the green light to go for it with her. Not only that but it's also a signpost for yourself and for her to keep your relationship good. Great video!

The statement from one girl that described it all and was the general consensus: "I'm not gonna shut myself for life". That's how they see marriage, settling down, the end of the good life. Why would any man accept that, do you really think he's going to be treated as he deserves in that marriage. And they were normal girls, nothing especially ratchet. Wow. The West is doomed. We men have many issues that we have to work on to be good husbands, I realize that, but I feel that despite men allegedly being leaders of societies we mostly accommodate to women and their wants and needs in dating and relationships. We adjust. Women are the ones who set the tone in that arena. And these latest modern wants and preferences of theirs are driving us all into the abyss. May God help us all.

For you guys it's all about setting high expectations that guys need to do or have A to Z which is 26 points on a checklist. And then blaming men because they can't keep up, even though it's your fault. No offense, but many people in the US don't deserve to be parents. Look around. Many have failed, and I fail to see how you would be any different, Courtney. Many young people there lack critical thinking skills, and some marriages don't even last 5 years, most not even 10, seems like...unless you get really lucky. Some international couples somehow make it work, and I'm not surprised that many choose that road instead and why it's becoming more popular.

    I think having hobbies is a huge green flag for me. Reading and watching movies is fine and all, but what do you enjoy doing with your hands? Do you like to cook? Do you like to sew? Do you like to play tennis? Martial Arts? Workout? Mountain Bike? Sail? Music? All of these things are huge green flags that let me know she is her own independent and interesting person, and not just a generic 1900's housewife. My last relationship, nothing against her or anything, but she didn't have any hobbies outside of watching movies or reading, and that really affected our ability to have fun and connect. It really made our dates become just cuddling and movie watching, or eating. That's important of course, but it shouldn't be the only thing we do together. If we went mountain biking together, and we were both good at it, or if we played tennis together, or we went sailing together, or flying together, or camping together, shooting together, archery, or even martial arts. Those would be some amazing dates, and would keep the relationship from getting boring.

If I had one complaint about the girls I've dated recently, it's that they don't pay attention to what I'm doing with them in mind. She comes to my place for dinner, and when she walks in, I have old school slow jams playing, I take her into my arms and start dancing, setting a romantic mood...and she complains about the traffic on the drive over. So much for trying to set a romantic mood! I ALWAYS ask my girl how her day has been. Just wait for it. Thanks for these great videos Courtney. Girls and guys alike can learn a lot listening to you.

    I'm not so sure that that's a good indicator. My ex-wife listened to music, and she is a covert narcissist. I rarely listen to music myself, but I'm very self aware. My GF listens to music, and she shows every green flag. I guess my point is that both toxic and healthy people listen to music

    I liked that you also focused on the positive green flags to look for. Watching this made me realize just how bad dating is getting. We often hear that Men should be looking for a "good woman". But it is getting difficult because the bar of expectation is so low for women, and the expectations for Men so high. Maybe there should be a video on realistic Expectations vs Privileges in relationships.

    Well said on everything Miss. as a man, these are all key things I make note of when dating a girl. You are spot on. The last and longest relationship I had with someone, the one thing that made her different from every woman I spoke to was that she was an open and honest communicator. Whatever problems or disagreements we had, whatever issue she was dealing with, whenever I did or say thing that upset her or confused her, she sat down with me and openly talked with me about it. The amount of growth one feels in their relationship in those moments can be truly incredible. So yea, these are all very important but this above all is by far what can make or break your relationship

    FYI everyone: Make sure she has these qualities. People will fake these. Next thing you know, they’re bad mouthing their friends, stop taking responsibility for mistakes, dishonesty, put in minimal effort. In the beginning, my last girl was all of these, then she started taking these away one by one. After I broke it off, she ends up back with her ex. Just because they SAY “thank you” does not mean she’s thankful. Look at the actions. So I would add Consistency to this list.

She also gets mad at me if I even dare say that I'm going to visit her whenever there's even a slight chance the weather forecast shows bad weather because she doesn't want me risking myself just to see her

I've dated women years ago that absolutely refuse to ever apologize which means they thought they were absolutely perfect and can do no wrong where I've been constantly trying to improve myself overall since I was a teenager and I'm in my early thirties, but women tend to quit developing their personality at the age of 14 now because of social media

    From a guy perspective and speaking from personal experience, here are the green flags some girls showed me : 1. She compliments you or the way you are dressed 2. She buys you something - ice cream, drink, a nice t shirt - 3. She stands for you when someone tries to make fun of you 4. She recalls any random thing you said about yourself 5.she tries to find something you have in common 6. She tells you she was thinking about you when she went to a particular place 7. She asks you lots of question about yourself 8. She comes physically closer to you - like really close 9. She finds a way to touch you - hand on my shoulder, back, biceps, arm, back of my neck, or grabbing my face with both hands 10. Deep long staring with a shy smile 11. She asks you to come to her house These are the things that happened to me as far as I remember.

    I wish this video was around 6 months ago. It would’ve saved me a lot of trouble, but things are a lot better now. A green flag you mentioned that I agree with is liking kids and being good with them, but the reverse side of that is “baby fever.” It’s nice that she gets excited by babies and kids. I mean, it’s hard to not think babies are cute, but it gives a vibe of emotional immaturity or jumping the gun when the first thing she says is not “that’s a cute baby omg,” but instead “omg I want a baby!” especially if it’s early in the relationship.
