I didn’t notice the red flags because they didn’t look like danger.

They looked like love.

He texted constantly. I thought it meant he cared.

He joked when I shared my wins. I told myself I was “too sensitive.”

He went silent during conflict, and somehow I always ended up apologizing.

The biggest red flag wasn’t cruelty it was inconsistency.

Big promises. No follow-through.

Affection when things were easy. Distance when they weren’t.

The moment it clicked was simple:

I was upset, and he said, “You’re too sensitive. Everything becomes a problem with you.”

That’s when I realized:

Someone who loves you doesn’t make you feel like your emotions are an inconvenience.

Red flags don’t always scream.

Sometimes they whisper and you ignore them because you want it to work.

If you’re slowly disappearing in a relationship, that’s your sign. 🚩 ✨
