[quote=Anonymous]Listen to your gut and realize that while marriage is hard work, relationships, especially early on should have a lot more good than bad. Find someone you don't need to explain away -- oh, he's only like that when he's stressed and boy is he stressed, he's hungry and that's why he talks to me that way, he's this, he's that... It should be fairly straight forward early on -- if it's not, that's a huge red flag. And me personally, I'd stay away from a guy that sees me as a red flag like that PP. You want someone who thinks you are fantastic and basically couldn't do better than you (even if he could, of course). Look for someone who is easy to be with. I'm divorced from an emotional and verbal abuser. I run from any relationships that have conflict at this point. If we have it now, it's not going to get better! Current BF is awesome...but man have I kissed a lot of frogs to find him. Just treat dating as it should be -- you're getting to know these guys, you don't owe them anything and they should be trying to woo you (and you are, naturally, putting your best self forward to). Look for someone positive. My ex was very negative -- thought the world was out to get him, he was entitled, he didn't have close long-term relationships. Look for the warning signs and heed them.[/quote]
