Why Do Women Ignore Red Flags in Relationships?

Gabriel Powell Season 4

In this What Would You Do? segment, a 62-year-old woman shares a jaw-dropping story: she fell in love with a charming man, said yes to his proposal… then found six mugshots—including one from last year. 

Now she's torn between the love she feels and the red flags she uncovered. He claims he’s changed. But is love enough to overlook a criminal past? 

This conversation dives deep into why some women ignore red flags, the psychology of settling, why companionship often overrides conviction—and the harsh truth about dating over 40 and 60. 

Is the pressure to find someone—anyone—driving people to compromise their values? Is the church creating unrealistic dating expectations? And are women being told to wait while men explore every option?
