- He's not alone in his beige flags. My girlie group chat was readily available with an arsenal of them when I called upon the roundtable for their boyfriends' offending habits. Like a set of magicians pulling earth toned strings of handkerchiefs from their sleeves, they offered a plethora of beige flags: one friend's boyfriend makes plans with her in his head, doesn't tell her, and then gets upset when she "double books" him, despite her not knowing they had plans at all.
