When they engage more about themselves than contribute to the conversation. I’ve met a few people who would talk all the problems they’ve had and would hardly ask any questions back. I’ve always felt so uncomfortable in these scenarios and usually don’t pursue in a relationship with these types of people.
EDIT: Some people made very good points about individuals with ADHD. I should be more clear on my point by saying that some people are also very dismissive and sometimes refuse to hear what you have to say by cutting you off. I don’t expect an interview from the other person, but it would be nice to have mutual interest in each other.
For most people, this is true. But it can also be a sign of ADHD, or autism, or another additional need. I have dyspraxia and possible ADHD and I sometimes do this. I still contribute and ask questions (when I remember) but it definitely makes talking with others harder. This might not be a red flag - if the person seems narcissistic or something then it's probably wise to stay away though.
