Mel Robbins, podcast host, author, and motivational speaker, sat down with a psychologist, Dr Thema Bryant, in one of her podcast episodes. 

And what was revealed might not be so pretty to hear.

It was said that they "may do so for a very specific reason: it might be because the trauma of it all is familiar to them." (Instagram)

That's pretty deep if you ask us. But it does have some logic to it. 

But we don't think that calling it a 'red flag' may be the right way to approach it. Especially with the deeper meaning it is associated with.
