1. Inconsistent communication

2. Generally moving too fast (physically)

3. Fiddling with the phone (possibly tinder/some app) while on a date

4. Generally obsessing over something on one's phone while on a date

5. Getting too publicly physical/demonstrative before having appropriate milestone conversations

6. Gossiping and asking around too much about a current/potential partner instead of being direct and asking them any questions you have

7. Offering too much praise too quickly/too soon

8. Offering too many gifts too quickly/too soon

9. Having shady friends and connections

10. Having many key people in your common circle who don't talk to the person of interest

11. Making too many excuses

12. Treating a person very well in public but then going silent in private

(Generally any shady sort of behavior is a red flag.)
