[quote=Anonymous]When people talk about red flags theyre often thinking of red flags as predictive of the partner's negative traits, as if the partner is the main or only cause of the divorce. I'm divorced and I could tell you a bunch of things my Ex did that made me want to end the relationship, and the red flags that foretold these things. But I'm not doing myself any favors if I don't acknowledge my own behavior and my own issues and how they were part of the whole mess. My red flag was myself: I couldn't look my ex in the eye during our wedding dance. That should have been my warning that things wouldn't end well, though I couldn't consciously see it at the time. In retrospect I see that the emotional "wounds" that brought us together and that seemed to be so compatible, were the things that also broke us apart. The bottom line is that I chose to marry my ex for fundamentally dysfunctional reasons, and that doomed the marriage from the start. [/quote]
