A literal flag colored red, if you or the flag is moving towards the other so fast as to blueshift it to green.

If a person with protanopia/deuteranopia looks at a red flag, one sees green-ish flag.
Hi, protan here, you are not a correct. I am red-blind and it's more like reds are extremely muted, with weaker reds looking kinda grey.
Yellows turn into greens, though, for perhaps predictable reasons.
Red flag: My friend once saw what looked like people setting a RadioShack ablaze and stealing all the expensive electronics and making off with them all.
Green flag context: It was actually a faulty electronic that caused the fire, and the "thieves" were Good Samaritans saving everything from getting burned.
Everything!
Say "I love you babe!"
- Long term relationship - green
- First date - red
Say "I'll beat you!"
- Racing a kid - green
- When stoping in the middle of the woods with your date - red
Let a fart rip
- With a friend when the room is silent - green
- On your date when she rims you - red
I can go on
Lying and pretending to know something who's actually a complete stranger to them
When the stranger is a drunk woman in distress clearly trying to get away from a predator.
Partners who want to do everything for you.
They're very giving, and will do you so many favors, and cater to your whims. Favorite ice cream? Let me go buy it for you! Need something from the store? I'll go get it! Need a ride? Got you covered!
Once they have you "locked down" (married, pregnant, in a long-term lease, dependant on them for transport, etc.) they can do a 180 and suddenly "you owe them". No more favors. Only guilt. They'll isolate you and make every negative emotion they feel be "your fault."
They want you to become dependant on them so they can use and manipulate you.
Be so very careful with overly kind/giving people. Never let yourself be 100% dependant on someone else. Ever. No matter how nice they are to you.
