QUIZ
What’s your winning trait? Answer honestly and we’ll identify it!
Are you good at spotting red flags, or do you tend to overlook them? Take this quiz to find out how you handle warning signs in relationships.!
1
Your partner has not asked you for money before but informs you of an emergency financial need, 3 months after you got into a relationship. How would you respond?
Communicate that we don’t know each other well enough yet and suggest that they ask other close people for help
Use the opportunity to discuss financial expectations and set up boundaries around money
Send the money and follow up on whether they got out of the fix
2
Your bestie stuck with you through a financial crisis and even though you repaid them fully, they keep reminding you that they helped you. They use this reasoning to justify why you should listen to their advice and come running when they call. Is this a red flag for you?
Yes. Friendship is valuable but personal boundaries are still very important, I can always cut them off.
Yes. There’s this type of person in every friend group and we learn how to live with them
I’m not sure. I’d expect someone this close to mean well for me. It is coming from a good place.
3
You find out that your best friend has been sharing personal details about your life with other mutual friends yet you expected it to remain between the two of you. How does this affect your friendship?
That’s a huge betrayal, I’d never trust them again
Trust is affected so I’d not share anything personal for a while
It doesn’t change a lot in the friendship, it’s just a matter of reminding them not to do it again
4
Sometimes the other person is the one showing red flags and other times you might be the red flag in the situation. How do you evaluate your own behaviour to know when you are the problem?
When I realise I’m being overly critical, it’s time to take a break and resolve the insecurities
I’m always open to being corrected and I believe everyone should have this attitude
If someone points out something I need to work on, I will accept it and try to change
5
Your partner frequently checks your messages and calls, asking about people you contact. You are not comfortable with the scrutiny and would like for the behaviour to change. How would you start the conversation?
Say: “This behaviour crosses my boundaries and I believe it’s time to end the relationship”
Set up new passwords, explain how I feel and ask that they respect my privacy
Understand that it’s a trust issue and let it slide because I have nothing to hide
6
You’ve noticed that your partner is poor with communication. They go for weeks without responding to calls or messages and when they finally do they give sketchy explanations for why they’ve not been reaching out. What does this tell you about them?
It’s disrespectful and this person does not deserve my attention
They might do better with a different communication style, they are not strong with communicating over the phone
It tells me that they might not like me as much as I like them
7
Your partner keeps making comments about your appearance and tries to brush them off as a joke, but you find them to be hurtful. How would you handle it?
I’ll let them know I don’t find it funny and explain why it hurts me
I would make similar comments on one of their insecurities, they should know how it feels
I wouldn’t mind it too much, I’ll believe they are meant as jokes
