#209: 5 Green Flags in Early Dating

When you’re anxiously attached, it’s easy to fixate on red flags and warning signs — scanning for danger in the early stages of dating. But if you’re always looking for what’s wrong, you might miss the important signs that you’re with someone who’s actually safe, caring, and aligned with you.

In this episode, we shift the focus to green flags — the encouraging behaviours and feelings that can help you recognise when a connection has potential. You’ll learn why these signs matter, how they can soothe an anxious system, and how to pay attention to the way you feel in someone’s presence.

We’ll explore:

  • Why paying attention to how you feel around someone can be more telling than analysing their every move
  • The importance of being remembered and feeling genuinely seen
  • Signs of sincerity, effort, and sustained interest (and how they differ from love-bombing)
  • The role of humour, playfulness, and ease in creating a healthy connection

If you’re ready to reframe your approach to dating and start recognising when something is right for you, this episode will help you spot the cues that matter most.
