4. Chronic money problems
While ongoing debt or financial struggles might not seem like a big deal while dating, they can become major sources of conflict as the relationship deepens or after marriage. Of course, everyone has a different relationship with money, and it’s okay to have financial ups and downs throughout life.
However, this partner’s red flag starts kicking in when your special someone is constantly in debt or completely relies on you for money (without taking any action to change the situation). Unfortunately, many couples call it quits due to financial problems.
When two people are financially linked, one person’s debt can affect the other. Assisting a partner in overcoming significant debt can lead to further financial difficulties and resentment.
If this applies to you, think about consulting a financial planner or attending couples therapy to determine if the issue arises from underlying problems or past trauma.
