Red flag or green light? In this episode, we put some modern-dating habits on trial and test the line between a green flag and a flaming red one: “daily grand gestures” vs love bombing, constant texting vs control, sharing locations as safety tool vs surveillance, opposite-sex friends, “I don’t like your bestie,” public jokes about private insecurities, keeping score in fights, one partner paying all the bills, and whether a prenup is protection or a problem. We land on context, consent, and changed behavior—plus the scripts we use to set boundaries without killing the vibe.  

Why this hits now: “Love bombing” and “green flags” are everywhere in dating talk, and couples are debating location-sharing and prenups more than ever—especially Millennials/Gen Z.
