The difference between relationship red flags, amber flags and just annoying habits:
and professor of sociology and intimacy at The Open University identifies controlling behaviour as one of the most important red flags to pick up on.
“If the red flags concern your safety, either physically or emotionally, it is advisable to consult a therapist,” stresses Dr Ben-Ari. “This will offer you a safe space to share how you are feeling, and will offer you the tools to make healthy decisions for yourself and your future.” “Having a hard-and-fast traffic light system of flags that you bring to a relationship and which impose arbitrary codes of conduct or expectations onto the relationship are problematic,” says Dr Gabb.
An amber or yellow flag could be them not talking openly about their family, or having a significant amount of debt: something to be mindful of, but probably not enough to end the relationship alone. So you’ve noticed some amber flags in your partner, what do you do now? All three experts stress that communication is key.
“If there are niggling doubts talking them through can often resolve them and generate deeper knowing and feeling closer”
