A second said, “That’s one thing I really try to do. If I’m wrong, I try to own the mistake and admit it.”

3. Not Having Close Friends
One person shared, “My guess would be not having a close friend because I know people view my lack of solid friendships as a huge red flag. I just got held up with having a kid to take care of while going to school and working, both full-time, which turned into me working full-time and raising two toddlers by myself.” said one person.”
“I can tell you why that is an issue for me, I have a pretty good group of friends and busy social life. I’ve dated women who didn’t have many friends. One on one, it was fine. But then I realized I was becoming their only outlet for social interaction. And that wasn’t fun.”
4. Not Taking Your Dreams Seriously
Many had the same views. “When they don’t take your dreams seriously.” said one. Another added. “When they don’t take you seriously period.”
“Underrated. My gf does not support my decision in studying computer science because now I will become ‘a nerd’. Makes me kind of sad.”
