May be my 'red flags' are just decorations?

People keep talking about “red flags” like they are something terrible. Honestly, I used to panic about mine too. I thought: “Who will like me if I overthink at night, sometimes say things I don’t mean, or get emotional for no reason?
But recently I realized something funny, maybe my red flags are not warnings. Maybe they are… decorations?)

Yes, I can be jealous sometimes, but only when I care. I ask too many questions, but that’s how I show interest.
Yes, I need attention, but I also give a lot in return!

Maybe the right person won’t be scared of my “messy parts.”
Maybe he will think they are cute, or at least honest??
I’m not perfect, and I don’t try to pretend anymore.

In the right relationship, these things become part of your story together, not reasons to run away.

So if someone comes into my life and sees my red flags… I hope he knows how to enjoy the view. They’re just pieces of me — a bit bright, a bit chaotic, but real;)
