In early dating, it is hard to tell if someone's interest is authentic, or if it is driven by something that has nothing to do with you.

Maybe they're just driven by lust, or by the search for a rebound after they got their heartbroken, or just out of ego to see if they can get you. It's easy to see all of these

types as bad actors who know exactly what they're doing and some of them are of

course but others aren't even conscious of what's driving their behavior so you

wouldn't learn the truth even if you asked them. This is why signals like someone

being open about their feelings towards you,

eagerly setting up the next time you'll meet and taking you on fairy tale-like dates are not necessarily

strongly correlated with how great your relationship will be with them in the future or whether

there will ever be one. A classic error is mistaking someone's attention for their intention.

In truth, some of the best relationships burn more slowly,

have less certainty in the beginning,

and even have more friction, which we will talk about later in this video.

And some of the worst relationships start off like a perfect Disney movie with fireworks.

It is confusing. It is hard to tell what emotional availability actually looks like in the beginning.

So in this video, I wanted to share with you a few signs or green flags for a change of what to look out for in the first few weeks or months of dating

that can help you figure out if their behavior shows real intention and possibility

or if this person is doomed to break your heart.
