What are some "warning signs" in suitors?

Contributor: kdlt kdlt
When someone becomes interested in you and starts trying to "woo" you, what are some signs you consider to be foretelling of future issues?

For me, when someone is clingy (text messaging every couple hours if you normally don't text them very often, e-mailing multiple times in a day if you don't respond right away) it's usually a predictor that I'll find them far too dependent and needy in a dating/relationship structure.

Also, bragging. If they're constantly bragging about achievements and "one-upping" other people, I know that our personalities will clash too much for me to enjoy a long-lasting relationship with them.

What are some warning signs you guys look for??

This is why I don't date Cancers.

If they do a lot of things "because they can". Example "She was wearing crocs, so I was a bitch to her just cuz I could. Teeheelol".

Aw yeah, the "cuz I could" when it relates to cruelty or rudeness really bothers me too!

This could end up being such a long list.

Right now my friend started to see this guy she met online. She's seen him three times so far for no more than a few hours. Suddenly he posts on his facebook that she's his girlfriend and he's trying to get her to making living decisions with him, be a part of his custody battle with his ex, and be a mother to his children... I say he's a drama-causing nutcase. Not a good sign three dates in when she doesn't want to know anything heavy yet. TOO MUCH, TOO FAST.

One thing of my own that I experienced in a past first date was a guy that freaked out at normal conversation. We were at a book store and looking at pictures of unique and cool tattoos. He says something like, "I'm thinking of getting a tattoo." I say, "Cool, me too. What do you think you're gonna get?" Well he then freaked out an acted like a snobby asshole and said, "I think that's a very personal question and I don't want to answer." It's called making small talk and getting to know each other. And you brought it up, dude! I stayed long enough to be polite and ran my ass out of there.

Heh, we'll never have a burning passion then, as I am Cancer.

The silent treatment for more than two days after a date. I don't play games, so any sort of "make them wait to sweat" automatically means they're childish and more concerned with societal expectations than being a grown up who thinks for himself.

This reasoning has proven true for me.

When everything they say is negative, I know the relationship would just stress me out.
