Short answer
The main Garden Field red flags are mothering a partner, over-giving until resentment builds, and saying yes when they mean no; they come from love, but they wear both people out.
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.
