What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you?

Everyone has had their share of pain. Either we caused it or it has happened to us. Because of that type of duality, none of us are innocent.

While we share stories of what others have done, I tend to walk away from people who don’t admit they had a time of weakness or they were wrong. It’s a scary mindset to believe you’re never wrong. It’s hard to say if people like this are incapable of understanding they’re cruel. Or, is it that they’re doing it for fun?

But a person who cannot say, “I once hurt someone,” is very concerning.

Tough to spot in the beginning, and tell tale signs are overlooked. If they have a story about what someone did to them, but never a reflective cause and effect…chances are they’re lying. If everyone is always wrong in simple conversations…this ties into that type of behavior. And lastly, if it seems they tell their stories a certain way in the beginning, in the attempts to keep important information about themselves from you, you can believe they’re probably lying as well.

It took me ages to spot it, I am a person who will fully admit to my wrong doing. I am glad I’ve learned this so I know what to look for and who to avoid.
