It is easy to point out red flags because they are always what people highlight.

Here are some green flags I think we should focus on and celebrate more:

Their presence is calming.

They genuinely care.

They don’t do things for the spotlight or to be seen.

They listen more.

They respect your boundaries.

They have healthy hobbies.

They make an effort.

They are non-judgemental.

They are accountable.

They are not controlling.

They are respectful.

We may not have all of the green flags, but just recognising and picking up one green flag is a solid start in the right direction.
