He believes that if someone can\u2019t even muster up a \u2018hello\u2019 to a passerby, it\u2019s a major red flag. \u2018When you\u2019re out on a run or a walk or a bike ride, do you say hi to people that pass?\u2019 he asked on his show. \u2018If you don\u2019t, I\u2019m not so sure about you.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Seacrest even went so far as to say that if someone ignores a friendly greeting from a stranger, it\u2019s a deal-breaker. \u2018If someone says \u2018good morning\u2019 to you on the path and you don\u2019t respond, that is a red flag,\u2019 he explained. \u2018I take everybody out for a little exercise.

It\u2019s not 25. 27. Green flag,\u2019 he clarified. He also decreed that a chimey alarm clock is a must, not a loud, jarring one. \u2018Chimes.
