Relationship Deal breaker : Watch out for the red flags.
Falling in love is a complex process. And, sometimes you miss the signs that can make a difference to your relationship happiness.

In the beginning, you’re either drawn to someone because you have shared interests or because the spark is so strong you can hardly ignore it.

Opposites often attract, and this is because you’re seeking different characteristics to complete yourself.

The person who has a preference for introversion may be charmed by the extrovert’s ease in large social situations, or the planning type might want to live vicariously through their spontaneous partner’s go-with-the-flow attitude.

But when the differences are too stark, they become difficult to overcome. The endearing trait you fell in love with, suddenly becomes a go or no-go situation: a relationship deal breaker.
