Is it a red flag if they want to move too fast?
Short answer
Yellow, red if there's pressure
Excitement is lovely, but rushing big steps (moving in, exclusivity, meeting family, shared money) in the first weeks can be a way to lock you in before you know them. The key sign is how they react when you ask to slow down.
It depends on
- Whether they pressure you or just share hopes
- Whether they respect a “not yet”
- Whether money or moving is involved
