Quiz: Do Your Friends Show Betrayal Red Flags?

Not every friendship is meant to last forever and not every red flag shows up as obvious betrayal. Sometimes it starts quietly: a shift in tone, a lack of support, or a feeling you can’t quite explain. This quiz isn’t about jumping to conclusions. It’s about awareness, intuition, and emotional self-protection.
