Before The Red Flags, There Are Subtle Signs

Relationship realignment.

I’ve coached many who don’t notice the signs until it’s too late. Until they’ve moved in or invested in someone for a year or more. Until they have committed, went “all in”, exchanged vows, decided to build something.

The signs they notice they choose to swallow as the norm. They feel the cement is dry. So they minimize, ignore, or just accept the relationship as it is, and with that decision comes drift, feeling trapped, and internalization — believing it’s their fault or that they are defective and lacking in some way.

Now the signs have turned into flags.

And we all know how that story ends.

You don’t have to take a blacklight to your relationship every single day but it’s important to be aware of sublte signs. Once you’re aware, you have choices. You can do something about them before they create cracks in your relationship.

Flags can create panic and a call to action.

Sublte signs can be a door into exploration, growth, self awareness, and relationship glue.

Reminder. I’m talking about subtle signs, not obvious things that spell get the fuck out of this…
