These are some green flags in people to recognize...
They don’t rush your healing or pressure your decisions.
No “why aren’t you over that yet” energy. Healing is not fast food.
They respect you without needing reminders.
You don’t have to explain your worth. They already see it.
They honor your boundaries the first time. No negotiating. No guilt trips. No “but I was just…”
They are consistent over time.
Not intense today and missing tomorrow. Steady is the new fine.
They take accountability.
They own their mistakes without blaming your tone, your mood, or Mercury.
They apologize clean.
No excuses. No sermon. Just growth.
They are secure enough to support your growth.
Your success doesn’t threaten them. It inspires them.
They show emotional maturity during hard conversations.
No yelling. No shutting down. No disappearing acts.
They protect your confidence.
What you share stays with them. Period.
They show up when it costs them something.
Time. Comfort. Convenience. They encourage your rest and well-being.
They don’t only value you when you’re producing.
They respect your autonomy.
Your money. Your body. Your faith. Your choices.
They treat you like a partner, not a project.
You are not something to fix.
You feel calm, not anxious. Peace shows up in your body first.
You don’t shrink to be accepted. You take up space without apology.
You speak freely without rehearsing. No walking on eggshells.
You feel clear after conversations. Not confused. Not doubting yourself.
You feel safe even when you disagree. Respect doesn’t disappear under pressure.
You can say "no" and still feel secure. No backlash. No punishment.
You leave interactions feeling stronger. Not drained. Not second-guessing.
They apologize without adding excuses.
A real apology. Not “I’m sorry, but you made me do it.”
They don’t compete with you or diminish your growth.
They clap when you win. No slow claps. No shade.
They celebrate your wins without making it about themselves.
Not “I’m happy for you, but let me tell you what I did.”
They don’t disappear when conversations get uncomfortable.
No vanishing acts. We’re not at the circus.
Green flags often feel boring or fake to people who grew up surviving. When your nervous system is used to drama...peace feels suspicious. That doesn’t make peace wrong. It makes it new.
And let me say this in my author voice from my book "Follow Your Heart, But Take Your Brain with You"....your brain recognizes safety faster than your butterflies do.
Pay attention to who brings calm, clarity, and consistency into your life.
That’s not small. That’s emotional wealth.
