Do you want to know more about the person you are
dating? See who their friends are. Knowing who a person
hangs around tells you so much about them. What at their
values? Do they have long term stable relationships? Are
all of their friends short term newly minted friendships?
Does your potential mate keep you away from their friends?
Answers to these questions can be green lights, or huge
red flags. Let's take a look what you can find out.
First off there are many signs in just meeting their
friends that can give you major clues. Take note, do they
have friends? Now if they just moved into an area, cut
them some slack. If they have been rooted in an area for
awhile they should have some long term relationships. If
they have no long term relationships, they are not likely
to have a long term relationship with you. Now, if they do
not introduce you to their friends, stay away, no run the
other way. If a person doesn't bother to introduce you to
their friends, there is a reason behind it. Chances are it
isn't a positive reason.
Now, say you have met their friends. Look at their
character. Do they have similar beliefs as you do. If you
are against drug and alcohol abuse, make sure they feel
the same way. If all of their friends are complicated, for
example they lie, they have unusual criminal pasts,
bizarre relationships, chances are your potential mate
thinks these things are ok. We all have one or two friends
that come from unusual molds and we love them for it. If
all of their friends have issues, look out. Also note what
their friends say about your potential mate. Are these
positive things? Are they relating stories about your
potential mate that you wish you never heard before? If
this is the case walk away.
Now, we have gone over some red flags; failure you
introduce you to their friends, short term friendships,
the character of their friends, what their friends say
about them. Look at these things, exam them closely. If
you see a lot of red flags, examine the relationship
early. Do not wait. Also, keep in mind, if your partner
introduces you readily to their friends, and tries to
integrate you into their lives that is a wonderful
positive sign. Are their friends all people you want to be
around, you may have found the right person. Friends are a
wonderful barometer to judge qualities about your
potential significant other.
