Gen-G, who grew up with the Internet, not only think in a new way, they also understand and explain relationships through various symbols and signals. The words 'Red Flag' and 'Green Flag' are popular nowadays among Gen-G generation. Let's understand what they are trying to say through which color flag.

23-year-old Savita (name changed) who is from Pokhara and is currently studying in the UK, was in a relationship with a man living in Nepal. In an online conversation with Kantipur, she said, "He is a fool of green flag but I still broke up with him." Why didn't her relationship move forward with the boy who showed green flag? She said, "The boy I liked was exactly what I was looking for". Accepting what I say, loving, taking care of my little things, making me feel special . But the relationship ended when the family told them not to fall in love with someone from a different country.'

This is how Savita explained the meaning of green flag and red flag in her generation. According to him, Green Flag is a partner who appreciates. It gives an unexpected 'surprise' and the 'lifestyle' is also good, it is a match. She said that the seven-month long relationship was broken after the family showed the red flag to the partner who showed the green flag. She said, "My mother and father did not like what I thought was good." After trying to convince him many times, I left him but he is a good guy.' 

A month after the relationship broke up, Savita came to know that her old partner had started a new affair. She said, 'Who moves on so fast? Especially when he was in a relationship, he gave me a 'red signal'. I just don't know.

Pramila Paudel, a 20-year-old resident of Jhapa, said that a boy who loves her without doubt, understands what she says and never says bad things in front of others is a 'green flag'. said,  "A partner who doubts who you are as soon as you talk to a boy, swears, doesn't let you go anywhere, smokes, drinks, and tries to be cool is a 'red flag' for me." Stating that the red flag is fighting for no reason, trying to control and claiming that he is the right partner in everything, she said, "If they fight with each other rather than love and behave according to their mood, that's too much of a 'red flag' for me." Yes . I would not choose such a boy for me.'

17-year-old Sujoy Gurung, who lives in Pokhara, has recently passed SEE and is preparing for class 11. He said that even though he is very busy, someone who makes time for his partner and respects his partner before others is a green flag for him. He added, "Whoever can accept his partner as he is". His bad habit helps to correct the behavior, that is the 'green flag'. But if you make fun of your partner's weakness in front of others to be cool, hide things with your partner, make excuses, judge your partner's favorite books, movies, and clothes, then that is a 'red flag.' But they say that they give a green flag to a partner who is compatible with them and a red flag tag to those who are not a match.
