Is this a red flag or just a bit odd?

[Pteuropa]

My friend has been with her partner a few months. They’re moving very fast. He booked them a weekend away with an early morning flight so they stayed in the airport hotel the night before. He’d bought a new shirt for the break. She’d packed the suitcases and forgotten to put the shirt in. He realised when they got to the hotel. He then drove a 2 hour round trip to get it. He did have other clothes to wear! It obviously didn’t sit well with her but everything else is going really great.

Just weird behaviour?

Or maybe cos the shirt was new he didn’t want to buy another one so quickly.
Perhaps he went back for it because he’s not frivolous with money.
Maybe it was an expensive shirt.

I really cannot see red flags, well apart from her doing the packing perhaps.
I cannot understand how it’s going too fast.

If she ever finds herself in the car, going back to collect some forgotten thing, she can simply ask. Would save all this speculation.

I would have thought 4 hours of petrol money would be similar to the cost of a shirt???
Unless it was a very expensive branded shirt?

yes now that would make much more sense! We didn’t think of that.

What I don't understand is why your friend doesn't just ask him directly.
Instead she is gossiping to her friend and than talking to random strangers who will be just guessing at best and as worst ill be basing their assumptions on prejudice.
Did you reply on why she does the packing?

she was bothered enough to ask you about it. It could just be odd, or it could be a problem. Things to think about:
Is he love bombing her?
Is he getting her to do lots of wife work?
Is he punishing her and trying to make her feel guilty if she does something wrong?

Those are all possible red flags, and this maybe is red flag behaviour, or maybe just a bit odd.
