Red flags (in no particular order)

•  "I like what you like."
• Explaining that you have to go to the ATM because the $1042 in cash you planned to carry was forgotten at home
• Too many gifts
• Expensive gifts too early
• Having an entire household in Thailand, where you don't even speak the language
• An interest in coins, where you let it slip that these are essential when the banks fail
• Having a loose panel on your car that you didn't get repaired, it flies off and then you take it to the shop, using your auto insurance.
• Being asked questions and avoiding them
• Saying you planned to be at the get together from your old job, but when the date is changed, you now can't make it because it's not worth your daily pay ("I'm not giving up $450 to go eat chili")
• Complaining about "losing" $30K due to taxes, because you didn't get to work overseas for a full year. And why did you have to come home? Because your dad died. But please, let's focus on the $30K.
• Telling a full grown woman that she's going to "blossom."
• Giving a full grown woman two men's size L shirts (one previously worn)
• Finding a new job and leaving a biohazard in the breakroom refrigerator when you leave, consisting of all the food you placed there and failed to remove over several months
• Telling someone to "ask you anything" - instead of just openly sharing the need to know information naturally
• Getting angry at someone for not asking you about your entire household in Thailand, where you don't even speak the language
• Wearing jeans with a hole in it at a nice dinner (okay, it's petty but I don't think it's too much to ask)
• Insisting on "gifting" someone a handicap placard that they don't need at all, and then being miffed that the person won't use it, on principle
• Offering unsolicited swimming lessons when the person you are interested in reveals she is not a strong swimmer
• Jarring spelling errors, while texting (I know, petty. These are *my* red flags)
• Saying "I don't like cats" to a person who has one
• Saying "I think I know why you're in my life" to someone, and then never actually sharing that thought.
• Excessive use of ellipses while texting
• Going on a texting rant, because the woman you're texting does not appear to have the same feelings for you, and also bashing her preferred method of communication because she's a "grown fucking woman." Throwing in insults about different generations, even though you are both Gen X
• Starting a very personal story about the woman who keeps your entire household in Thailand, where you don't even speak the language, and how this woman had never been kissed "on the mouth" (I did not get to hear if that status changed, or he he'd had anything to do with that)
• Saying "Good night" and "Enjoy your transition" when there is a hint of conflict
• Disappearing for two days after getting angry, and explaining that you had to "re-enter your body" to get to a place to be able to apologize 
• Saying "I'm going to die there" when discussing your entire household in Thailand, where you don't even speak the language
