When relationships end badly, people frequently question why they weren't able to recognize the warning signs from the start. They could have avoided a lot of turmoil, heartbreak, and wasted time if they had realized all the drawbacks of the person they were dating early on and ultimately determined they weren't right for them.
The problem is that predicting the future based on a first date is incredibly difficult. Because of this, if we didn't see anything particularly worrisome on the first date, we usually go on second dates.
It also sounds like the exes who clashed at the same party, leaving the host stuck in the middle.
That is usually when the red flags start getting harder to ignore.
