Essentially, we're all a bit self-centered; we are obsessed with learning about ourselves, even the not-so-nice things.

The latest personality quiz to take the internet by storm has us all asking "what are my red flags?" The questionnaire is garnering plenty of attention on social media and encouraging millions worldwide to learn about their "red flags."

A "red flag" is a slang term in the context of relationships, and it typically refers to a sign or warning that someone is a problematic or toxic partner. Now that we understand the "red flag" lingo, what exactly is the "what are your red flags" quiz?

The first question asks how you feel about your parents and whether they've done too much or too little to shape the person you are today. The questions get exceedingly random as the quiz goes on, such as what kind of phone case you have (OtterBox for the win) and what you need to do before you die.

After you finish the 10-question quiz, you will see your results. Some red flags results include gatekeeping, self-obsession, constantly disrespecting others, being emotionally unresponsive, or being a manipulative individual. Yikes, this is surprisingly heavy. Hopefully, you aren't too upset about your red flags.

Another user declared they took the quiz seven times, and each time, they received a different red flag as their result .... Interesting.

Also, if you were wondering, we took the quiz too, and our results hit close to home. The quiz told us we are obsessive, meaning "you're always fixated on certain things, preventing you from moving on." We feel attacked.
