Woman’s Long-Distance Boyfriend Slams Her as ‘Red Flag’ for Asking Too Many Questions

A woman, who's been in a long-distance relationship for 10 months, is confused after her boyfriend told her it's a "red flag" when she asks too many questions.

"Due to how I grew up, I don’t ask questions about stuff I don’t think is my business. If my boyfriend goes out with friends, I would not ask 'where.' If he has plans, I would not ask 'what plans.' If not explained, I assume it is something that is not important," she began on Reddit.

However, the woman explained she and her boyfriend have been experiencing a "repeating issue" in their relationship.

"My boyfriend and I were going to watch his brother perform. While getting ready he changed his mind and said: 'We’re not going, the energy will be bad.' I then asked 'Why?' I was then ignored and given the silent treatment. After explaining it made me feel like the 'bad energy' might be me he was referring to, he then after hours explained 'It is because my brother has friends that I do not like,'" she recalled.

Her boyfriend apparently has a habit of starting a sentence but not finishing it, and then acting like nothing happened — a behavior she considers "a cliffhanger."

Recently, he told her that her asking him questions "could be a red flag in the long run."

She told him that she "would work on it," but is "confused and not sure how to handle or address it."

Users roasted the boyfriend in the comments, slamming his communication skills.

"The real red flag is his poor communication about this," one person wrote.

"Why can’t he just answer your questions? Sounds like you’re trying to connect, and he’s not willing to. Then he’s gaslighting you about any questions you have. What an awful communicator," another commented.

"What you're describing is literally having a conversation with your partner. They say something that doesn't have much other context, and you ask a question about it to get clarity. That is literally a conversation. It is not you cross-examining him. It's not you being nosy. He made a statement and then you just made an inquiry based on that statement. He's being so weird," someone else chimed in.
