Hello all! Hope your all well, lovely sunny day here in the UK and I'm in a much better frame of mind than when I last posted.

So, I've decided to not date for a while. Spend some time thinking about what I really want before I delve back in. I'm making a list of all the qualities I'm looking for, that's easy. But I also want to list red flags to look out for, as I think I can sometimes get swept away in the moment and miss these all important signs. What are your red flags and total no no's when dating amd getting to know someone??

Also, for when I'm ready again... dating sites? Which are best? Don't mind paying. I'm also going to get out there more, join some clubs maybe.

Stay focused on what you are. Red flags are the antithesis of what you actually are so there is no worry at all there being repelled by characteristics you dislike or won’t find attractive. 

Glad to hear you’re feeling better.

Gotta go with first impressions count. If they edge towards sex talk, talk negatively, don't make effort to get to know you, pour you too much alcohol, talk about their ex, have no confidence, talk about things they are going to do but never accomplished, don't put their best foot forward, get stinkin drunk, feel a bad vibe from them...when it hits ya like a bad comment, stop and cool your jets, and say goodnight, block/delete.

It depends on your area and expectations. Why not try a paid one and free one. The paid ones may have more screening and questionnaires for matching. 

So deal breakers and red flags are very individual. For example: Kids? Drinking? Smoking? Drugs? Couch potato? Active? Homebody? Employed? Lives alone? ...the list goes on.

So pick what is important to you and what you personally couldn't live with.

Men who come on too strongly, too fast.
