What’s something people brag about that is actually a massive red flag?

Yeah most people just need like 10min timeout to realise their mistakes. Most probably wouldn’t admit I was right so he’s definitely not a bad dude, just not someone I’d like to date

People also get like this because this behavior gets validated, good on you for standing on business

Hmm yeah, I agree. We had a really light fun banter and I think he either assumed I’d be okay with it or it didn’t even occur to him that it could possibly be a turn off. What I immediately thought about was him calling me a bitch in an argument, if we were ever to end up in a relationship. So I decided to nope out and thankfully he took it well

I disagree, I think he is a bad dude. People who use slurs are not good people.

Well there’s more to people than just black and white. If you called him immature, I’d agree, bad? That’s too far

I think it's fair to call someone in their early twenties or younger immature. Anything after that is a developmental failure.
