Too many guys coast on being “not terrible.” Like the bare minimum is enough to deserve loyalty, commitment, or admiration. Newsflash: avoiding red flag status is the starting point, not the finish line.
The danger of comfort is that it breeds complacency. “I’m not toxic, so I must be great.” Wrong. Greatness comes from effort, growth, and self-awareness, not just the absence of chaos.
So no, you’re not a red flag. But don’t confuse neutral for exceptional. Keep growing. Keep proving. Don’t let “at least I’m not awful” be your only selling point.
Final Thought: Surviving the vibe check doesn’t mean you passed it.
Disclaimer: This is humor, not hostility. Neutral isn’t bad but don’t stop there.
