Short answer
The main Climbing Flower red flags are hiding what they want, keeping a quiet list of disappointments, and testing you with distance; all three come from fear of conflict, not malice.
Every birthday type has red flags, including yours. The useful question is which ones are habits you can talk about and which ones wear a relationship down. Yeon wrote the list. Bom made her add the green flags.
The red flags, one by one
🚩 'Whatever you want'
What it looks like: They agree to plans, then resent them later.
What it usually means: Fear of being a burden. Ask twice and wait for the real answer.
🚩 The silent ledger
What it looks like: A forgotten text from March comes up in a fight in October.
What it usually means: They stored it instead of saying it. Ask for small honesty often.
🚩 Distance tests
What it looks like: They go cool to see if you will chase.
What it usually means: Insecurity. Fine once, tiring as a habit.
🚩 Shape-shifting
What it looks like: Their taste, plans and opinions start matching yours.
What it usually means: Watch that they still have a self in the relationship.
YeonIf they bring up March in October, March was never fine.
Green flags that balance it
- They notice what you need before you say it.
- They are loyal to friends and remember everyone's birthdays.
- Once they feel safe, they become surprisingly direct and funny.
BomUnder the 'I'm fine' is someone who wants to be asked one more time.
The Wood pattern
Wood red flags are mostly about growth gone sideways: pride that will not bend (Tall Pine) or bending so much there is no shape left (Climbing Flower).
