According to Tems, unfriendly or uncurious partners are major red flags. She explained that the foundation of any relationship is built on genuine interest and friendship between partners. “My dating terms are someone who is not trying to be your friend is a red flag. Anybody that isn’t curious about you is also a red flag. Because what are we doing? Why are we here if you don’t want to know me? If he or she doesn’t want to know more about you, end the relationship,” she said.
Tems described herself as a “lover girl” but admitted that past experiences have made her more cautious in matters of the heart. She emphasized that her current focus is on self-love and personal growth, suggesting that meaningful relationships will follow naturally once she prioritizes her own well-being.
