 Who makes all these rules? And using the universal language "never" makes the article even less believable.

So it's OK to talk about my meeting with my probation officer?

Ha ha!

Apparently it's safe to continue using my favourite line too ... "You'd look amazing in a cheerleader outfit!"

I think ya'll complain about every article eHarmony puts out.

As for this particular one, I have to agree that almost every single one of these is a red flag, except for maybe hating your job or having a crazy family. A lot of people claim to have crazy families and a great deal many people hate their jobs. Inviting them back to your place is definitely NOT a red flag as long as things feel right. You don't necessarily have to have sex going back to someone's place.

This article all depends what you have talked about before the first "date." The "will you marry me" one is common sense though and the "I'm still in love with my ex" means a first date is the lest of your problems.

If I ran you for warrants would you come up dirty?

Okay so some of it seems common sense but I've worked with the public many years and you'd be surprised what people say when they aren't thinking (or nervous). The article was amusing, the comments hilarious!

If you bring up your probation officer make sure you're dating a Jersey girl, lol.

I thought the article and the comments were entertaining and maybe a little informative…but that’s coming from a person who has not dated in years. This explains why I read the entire article and ALL the comments. LOL!!
