Green Flag
[/ɡriːn flæɡ/]
Definitions
A positive signal or encouraging trait in a person or situation — the opposite of a red flag. Green flags indicate emotional maturity, trustworthiness, kindness, or compatibility. Spotting green flags early in a relationship is considered a healthy sign of self-awareness and dating literacy.
“He remembered a small thing I mentioned two weeks ago. Total green flag.”
