In reply to the discussion: Dating Advice: To avoid racists, look for Star Trek fans. [View all]pink-o
(4,056 posts)13. Also add: the way they treat your friends.
Many years ago, I was having breakfast with my best friend and her then-boyfriend. I made some off-handed remark and before I could swallow another bite of the omelet, he was ripping me 5 new ones! I remember being too astonished to even react...and to make a long story short, I told her the guy had serious anger management issues.
She didn't listen to me: but most young women NEVER heed their friends' warnings about bad boyfriends. Well, she married the jerk, and it wasn't long before he turned that same irrational anger on her. They are long divorced now, and I never said I told you so.
But I'm telling YOU, folks! Love is only blind for so long, beware the angy man or entitled diva woman!
