A Scots mum has revealed the ‘red flag’ comment that she claims puts women off when dating a new man.

Kerri Roma, better known as roma_0490 on TikTok, revealed the comment which she believes should raise alarm bells to her 225,000 followers and it quickly became apparent many others echoed her thoughts.

The mum was discussing the dating scene when she tackled the awkward topic of people bringing up their ex partners.

But there was one common issue where she believed men were falling short of women’s standards.

She said: “Tip for the lads, and this one is a personal pet hate.

“So if you do it, f***ing stop.

“When you’re talking to a lassie and then you decide to bring up your ex – which is fine – crack on a talk about your ex all you like.

“But when you turn round and say she was a psycho, tell me more about that. Please tell me more about how you openly chose to date a psycho.

“They say ‘well, she wasn’t like that when I got with her’.

“She just turned into a nutcase did she?

“Or has what you’ve been doing or what you’ve been saying or how you’ve been making her feel turned her into a nutcase?

“Or even better, has it just made her say something to you and you didn’t like what she said so she’s automatically a psycho?

“So lads, don’t say it to a lassie because it has the opposite effect to what you probably think it has.

“Instead of us going ‘oh my god, she was a psycho, we’ll go ‘oh my god, you’re a f*ing dk’.”
