He wants to keep the families out of it
He’s not interested in meeting your family. Conversely, he doesn’t want you to meet his family either.

He often talks about his ex
The ex: a difficult subject is almost every relationship. Especially if you suspect he still has feelings for her. He still calls her by name, recalls memories he made with her and may still speak to her. In short, he clearly hasn’t left the previous relationship behind him yet. Before you go all in with feelings, it’s important to realize that these are signs he wants his ex back .
He doesn’t call you his ‘girlfriend’
This one is pretty obvious, if he doesn’t call you his “girlfriend” after a healthy trial period, you know something is wrong. He doesn’t want to call you his girlfriend because it makes the relationship official , which he definitely doesn’t want. So when he introduces you to others, he’ll call you by your name and not by the label you’ve earned at some point; “This is my girlfriend, [….]”

He gives you hints about the “relationship”
He wants to take things slow because he’s just gotten out of a relationship. Or he doesn’t know what he wants yet because he’s unsure about his relationship skills. Whatever he says, if he says he’s not quite “ready” for a relationship (at the moment), don’t ignore it. Because this is one of the strongest signs that he’s going to break your heart.
“I don’t want anything serious right now .”
“I would like to get to know you, but I need time .”
“At the moment my work comes first , but I am open to it.”
He doesn’t make you a priority
It’s Friday: you finally see him again. Only he cancels at the last minute; “Sorry honey, something came up. Unfortunately I can’t make it.” And while you’re texting him back to ask if something serious happened, you find out that he prefers an evening of gaming with a random acquaintance. If he’s going to put you aside that easily, it’s only a matter of time before he breaks your heart.
He is never completely honest
No one likes it, but there is still quite a bit of lying in relationships. Not everyone does it, except for the white lies, but some men have a natural habit of lying and cheating in a relationship . And so if you catch him in a lie again and again, there’s always the risk that he’ll break your heart in some cunning way.
He hides his smartphone
It is a warning sign not to be ignored. If he only answers messages when you’re not around and never lets you check anything on his phone, then he has something to hide. Is he flirting with other women? Does he talk about you behind your back to others? Who knows what he’s hiding from you. And if it comes out, it might just break your heart.

He cheated
Let’s be real : if he hasn’t broken your heart by cheating yet, he will eventually. Cheating is one of the most selfish things you can do. How can you expect him to care about you if he cheats on you with someone else? Imagine a future with someone who doesn’t care about your feelings. In the end, it will definitely end in heartbreak .
He broke your heart once
We have special feelings for our exes, because it is mainly the good times that we remember. We forget the bad times. So it is not at all strange that you fall back into the arms of an ex-lover. But that in many cases this is not the best choice, that goes without saying. Unless you have both grown a lot in the meantime, have seen mistakes and learned from them, he will definitely break your heart again. And that is exactly what we are trying to protect you from.
