How to screen dates for character?

No way to find it now but a long time ago I posted my list of 100 or so red flags on the 5-10 minute instant coffee date. I use them well to vet partners -- my LTRs for the past 14+ years have always been amazing, even the break-ups are relatively drama-free.

The key element to LTR is to plate a bunch and don't LTR anyone for at least a year so you can see her all 4 seasons. Some women are amazing in summer but become depressed fascists in winter. And vice versa.

Plate 5 women, drop the low hanging fruit and replace, and if anyone floats to the top for over a year she's likely an LTR potential.

Plate them first. Let them earn a LTR promotion. Looking for an LTR from a tinder profile or a first date is a fools errand. Also, your lack of commitment will keep your frame strong, their hamster spinning, and get them to really show what they're willing to do to earn that promotion / be a good LTR.

Going to an LTR really quickly is just asking for broken frame beta bux treatment from the first date.

All these guys make good points, but as an older man I can tell you that the sensitivity to character and crazy comes from experience. Well, they’re all crazy but the level can be determined fairly quickly once you have the knack. Unfortunately you just have to accept you’ll be burned a few times. Keep frame and try to maintain detachment.

Are they on their phone during the date? Are they rude to staff? Do they give a fuck about your interests/stories? Or do they just want to talk about themselves? How's their appearance? Slutty? Respectable? Sexually, are they moving too fast or too slow for your tastes? Do they have any ambitions? What are their parents like? PM me if you questions about a specific case.
