10 Red flags to note in relationships .

A thread !

1. Secrecy - There is a difference between being private and being secretive . Anyone who doesn’t want people to know you are dating may have somethings they are hiding . It’s ok to be private but alarm bells should ring where there is secrecy .
2. Barter - The relationship is almost always about what is being exchanged . While there will be exchanges in every relationship, an undue focus on this will indicate that someone is there for something they can get and not what they can give .
3. Misaligned values - What is sacred to you isn’t respected by the other .values like honesty , integrity , respect isn’t important to the other party . A relationship with nonaligned values cannot work ! There will always be conflict .
4. Mystery income - Some folks are dating thieves , robbers and fraudsters and always have signs to indicate that their partners are fraudulent. It is a huge red flag not to know what your other half actually does for money . It’s not wise to join a sinking boat .
5. Apathy - Don’t ignore “disinterest “ . It is a symptom of a deeper disease. Some folks after sometime just lose interest . Ensure you are able to discern this . If there is romantic apathy it is a sign that someone has moved on and you are only dating yourself .
6. Financial indiscipline - Money is very important in this life . Especially in marriage . Be very careful of any one whose presence in your life always brings about emergency spending of money you have plans for . You cannot build with an indisciplined partner .
7. Sexual indiscipline - Nobody just cheats . Cheating is a decision . Never minimize sexual indiscipline in your relationship. There are serious consequences for permitting it . Plan your peace early . Don’t give your heart to someone who will shatter it .
8. Lack of compassion: Be worried if your partner is “nice” to you but cruel to others . The way people treat folks they don’t feel they need reveals who they really are . We are all nice to the chicken we want to kill on Christmas Day .
9. Propensity for violence - If a partner ever lifts their hands against you ensure you run . The violent partner is a dangerous partner . Do not excuse physical abuse under any circumstance. Extricate yourself fast . That slap you received was a sign from God ! RUN!
10. Disdain for authority- The partner who doesn’t submit to anyone will not be accountable to you . They can feign it but really cannot be . Always check for the accountability systems in a fellows life before you give your heart to them .

THREAD: 12 Things Everyone Should Know About IQ

1. IQ is one of the most heritable psychological traits – that is, individual differences in IQ are strongly associated with individual differences in genes (at least in fairly typical modern environments). https://t.co/3XxzW9bxLE


2. The heritability of IQ *increases* from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, nurture less.

3. IQ scores have been increasing for the last century or so, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. https://t.co/sCZvCst3hw (N ≈ 4 million)

(Note that the Flynn effect shows that IQ isn't 100% genetic; it doesn't show that it's 100% environmental.)


4. IQ predicts many important real world outcomes.

For example, though far from perfect, IQ is the single-best predictor of job performance we have – much better than Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five, Grit, etc. https://t.co/rKUgKDAAVx https://t.co/DWbVI8QSU3


5. Higher IQ is associated with a lower risk of death from most causes, including cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, most forms of cancer, homicide, suicide, and accident. https://t.co/PJjGNyeQRA (N = 728,160)
