Is it a Red Flag or Deal Breaker? Play the Game!

Relationships are complicated. They can be filled with love, laughter, and joy. But they can also be fraught with frustration, confusion, and heartache. One of the most challenging aspects of relationships is figuring out when to stay and when to go. It’s not always clear whether a behavior or circumstance constitutes a red flag that can be worked through, or if it’s a deal breaker that signals the end of the relationship.

Fortunately for you, dear reader, you don’t need to navigate these treacherous waters alone! In this article, we’ve put together an entertaining game that will help you determine if what you’re dealing with in your relationship is a red flag or a deal breaker.

The Rules

Before we get started on the actual “game,” let’s lay down some ground rules:

• Play honestly: This game only works if you answer truthfully.
• Look at patterns: A one-time occurrence might not mean much; consistent behavior is what matters here.
• Use common sense: If something feels off about your situation and it doesn’t seem like either option (red flag vs. deal breaker) fits quite right – trust yourself!
• Have fun: Relationships can be tough – this should at least bring some levity to the process!

With those guidelines in mind, let’s dive into our handy guide:

Section 1: Emotional Health

The first section focuses on emotional health – both yours and your partner’s.

Are You Able To Express Your Emotions?

Healthy communication requires getting feelings out in the open but without putting all blame solely onto another person so yes (/!)

Does Your Partner Respect Your Needs And Boundaries?

Respecting someone’s boundaries means letting them do things their way as long as harmony ensues between wants/needs respect each other’s expectations since part of being close with someone means having compromises at times. Yes (/!)

Is Your Partner Happy When You Are?

Your partner’s happiness should be a top priority to you, but like anything else in relationships— enjoyment must go both ways, fairness is important too which entail that being happy with the person concerned cannot solely define the relationship as positive or lets one forget about their own self worth .It’s mutual and both of your deep happiness should make each other ecstatically exhilarated. (/!)

Section 2: Alignment

Having common goals and values is an essential element for a healthy relationship; therefore it’s time to unravel whether or not they exist between you two.

Do You Share Values?

If not all values are shared then there can still be wiggle room especially if these disagreements can teach both parties something new so mostly yes (/)
however divisive issues such as political affiliations may lead to differences particularly around elections(/o)

Do Your Long-Term Goals Align?

Compromise on any goal must come if they are not completely matched. Mostly every couple has distinct long-term aspirations that differ but complement this will help balance things out.
For instance,

• She wants children soon
• He isn’t sure yet;
  The ability solve some areas of conflict while also respecting divergent choices towards major life paths require much thought and pragmatism on what was discussed before committing together.It happens,but oftentimes feelings might completely invert either way.Knowing priorities here would definitely identify deal breaker potential situations very early compared to later..which could hurt more. (/!)

Section 3: Physical Compatibility

Physical harmony is just as relevant for a healthy bond between partners; From compatibility in sexual drive kinks…

	NEEDED	WANT
Sexual compatibility(requisite sex drives/interest)	YES	YES
Physical attraction	MOSTLY	YES
Common interests in hobbies	NO	unsure

Both a physical and sexual compatibility are deemed quite important! (/) Couples who can connect “well” with each other strengthens the relationship but if one is not satisfied or doesn’t prioritize this aspect it is already heading towards danger (depending on what an individual really considers as meaningful /reasonable). (/o)

Section 4: Communication

It’s essential you and your lady/man establish healthy communication for total transparency.

Do You Both Listen Without Distractions?

For instance, no phone usage during conversations among others, both parties should show respect to each other by maintaining eye contact with either affirming speech/ body language. Yes (/!)

Can You Speak Openly And Honestly With Each Other?

Not everything has to come out all at once;however, free expression of opinions concerning critical issues must be cultivated overtime while making sure there’s emphathy understanding from both sides.This means that diplomatic responses discourage honesty.
But overall ,yes .(/!)

Section 5: Future Prospects

Besides discussing genuine future aspirations,it’s also good fun completing current and near-future goals.

Are There Viable Plans For The Next Five Years Together?

Life takes unexpected turns so leaving leeway in plans would do no harm.Therefore , plans will inevitably change just as prioritization does based on certain factors like career shifts etc. It is more vital that when reassessing trajectories couples ensure mutual support aligns for these respective “lifestyle” adjusting times since they hold implications beyond themselves. Just being flexible yet considerate of partner’s wants especially long-term would minimize irreconcilable differences.So the answer here? Mostly yes.(/)

With every section successfully completed,you’ve likely realized which areas need fixing or improvement or confirmed otherwise
Every answer: /(O) – When the experts speak, it’s essential to remember that there is no perfect solution as every couple and relationship is different. Ultimately, you’ll have to trust your instincts and decide what is worth staying or leaving for on road towards relationship fulfilment.
