When going on a first date, we are often on the lookout for "red flags", the key indicators that whoever is sitting across from us couldn't possibly be the love of our life.
More often than not, these red flags, be it something they said or did, are often a firm deal breaker in finding a partner.
Sometimes, however, there might be enough to make you overlook the glaring red flag you just had waved in your face.
And much to your surprise, you might find yourself falling head over heels in love with them, in spite of their one, obvious flaw.
Redditor butterfly_sparkle9 wanted to hear the noticeable red flags people's partners possessed, leading them to ask:

Always remember though, first impressions can be misleading.
And love has a way of helping you overlook the imperfections of others.
