Red flags get a lot of attention when it comes to dating, which makes sense because they’re the warning signs that someone might not be great for you or that a situation is unhealthy. There are also green flags, which don’t get talked about as much, but they’re just as important. A Reddit post asks, “What are some serious green flags in guys?”
These are some of the positive behaviors and traits that users see as green flags in men:
- “When a dude actively listens and remembers the little details from your convos”
- “Waiting until you get inside your house before driving away”
- “They text you to make sure you made it home ok.”
- “Basically being genuine and not putting on a show in front of you”
- “Knows what 'responsibility' means.”
- “Compliments your tiny creations. For example, if you like to knit, they’ll be like ‘Cute scarf, how’d you make it?’”
- “Doesn’t put his whole life on social media”
- “If THEY treat their mom well, that’s a green flag”
- “If they don't like/want kids, but are still genuinely nice to them.”
- “Having a non-monetized hobby that takes up a reasonable amount of their time”
- “He’s not lost his silly, playful side and laughs with you, not at you.”
- “When they treat servers well - bonus points for organizing the table before leaving”
- “Disagreeing with you, respectfully, honestly, then moving on.”
