In today's world, it's pretty easy to meet new people. From social media to dating apps and even old-fashioned face-to-face meetings, the possibilities are endless.

However, the fact that options are available doesn't always mean that those options are viable, especially when the standards out there are higher than they used to be.

People are increasingly more enlightened about the importance of making the right decision regarding their partners. Hence, they are more careful about spotting red flags.

Unlike many believe, red flags in a relationship go beyond simple pet peeves. They also don't always have to be deal-breakers, though.

Undoubtedly, some red flags are more evident than others, while some signals always indicate that you should run as far as your legs can carry you. 

While it's pretty easy to spot red flags in other people, it can be quite challenging to spot them ourselves. 

We found a post under a dating subreddit where people shared the most absurd things others had pointed out as their red flags. 

Some of these red flags were so hilarious they've proven that anything can go for a red flag in today's dating world. Doubting? What if we told you that someone pointed out that not having a red flag is a red flag—crazy, isn't it? 

We assure you, this isn't the most ridiculous. Scroll down and enjoy the ride.

The post garnered 1.1k upvotes and almost a thousand comments. Let's see what the Reddit community had to say:

If you're one of those who doesn't get jealous, expect a query soon

According to this Redditor, their partner told them that, "...it's a red flag that my bathrooms are clean, my closet is organized, and that I know how to cook and clean"

In other words, it’s impossible to be a heterosexual man and be clean—her words, not ours.

"I don’t have an ig or Twitter"

On a diet; No social media allowed!

"Being on a dating website. The same one they were on"

"My ex said I was horrible at helping out at home"

"You're attractive. That means you're probably a player"

The first time we’ve seen that being attractive is a bad thing

“I can’t find a red flag for you and I feel like that’s a red flag”

The first time we’ve seen that being attractive is a bad thing.

"I’m in therapy, which means I’m crazy"

"They literally listed all of their own red flag qualities and then said they were all mine!"

"My last ex told me I was 'cold' and 'robotic' because I wasn't interrupting him when he was crying/talking during an argument"

At least now she knows that the best way to resolve an argument is by turning on the waterworks.

"My first name is a 'J name'..."

"That I was upset and negative every minute of every day"

"That I’m divorced"

When a potential partner has a strict "no divorcée" policy.

"When I was dating, a lot of men thought it was a red flag that I was in my 30s and never married"

"That I was to honest in expressing my thoughts and feelings towards her"

"That I was too good at giving oral which meant I must sleep around a lot"

Android users, looks away

"I am financially stable with my own home and car, have an active social life, varied hobbies, including renovating my house"

"Someone said that they wouldn’t date people who parents where divorced"

"That because I've slept with more people than he has, I'm automatically a slag and I'm gonna cheat on him"

“You’re too short and I need to feel safe”

We bet you laughed hard after reading some of these. We couldn’t hold back from laughing out loud either. 

Based on these red flags, we can tell that finding someone out there these days isn’t as easy as many think.
