April's Article: The Dating Red Flags Worksheet! (Back by popular demand!)
.........from the Relationship Coaching Institute Training Manual
This is one of my favorite worksheets from my entire RCI Coaching education - as it gives so much insight. I use this worksheet often in my coaching practice. It gives you a checklist of the red flags you should be looking for in someone that you are just starting to date, or considering for a serious relationship.
In the beginning of knowing someone, very often because of the "chemistry" and the excitement of dating someone new, "lust blindness" often clouds our vision and you disregard the blantent red flags - the warning signals that this person has issues or behaves in a way that is not right for you.
Do this worksheet honestly - and add up the points - does this potential partner have too many red flags? Be careful not to fall in love with someone's potential. After doing the worksheet, either have an honest conversation about your concerns with your new partner, or seek a Coaches advice as to what to do next.
In today's world, it is too costly (both emotionally and financially) to have a bad marriage or failed committed relationship. A coach helps you to have a solid foundation in which to find a quality partner who is best for you.
