So gone are the days when morals were held up so high but now it is like almost everything we were taught to avoid has suddenly become something people are so proud of, and honestly, one thing that still doesn’t make sense to me at all, no matter how I look at it, is how cheating in relationships has now become normal,ike how did we even get to this point?
While gowing up, we actually believed in love o, like alot, see , we believed that if you are with someone, you are supposed to be with them and not the whole community, but these days, you will just see someone in a full relationship, with the whole matching wallpaper and all kind of things, and they will still be flirting up and down, and when you now ask them, they will say, omo see, it is not that deep or they will say everybody cheats, Omo this kind thing.... since when did loyalty become so old fashioned like this?
And you see sometimes I just sit and wonder, Is it that people don’t just value the emotions of others again? or we are just pretending like hearts cannot break? people will cheat, get caught and instead of being embarrassed, they will start giving motivational quotes like, You have to understand that humans are not perfect, "Sorry dear, nobody is asking you to be perfect, you just be honest, if you are tired of a relationship, leave, nobody tied you."
Omo and don’t even get me started on how friends now encourage it, someone will literally say, abeg cheat back, don’t dull yourself jawe, so now revenge is also normalized, loyalty is now for mumu people, on top what? relationship that both of you entered by yourself o?
Social media has made it worse, Everywhere you turn, there is a meme making cheating look funny or cute somebody will post, if your boyfriend is not making you cry, is it even love, and people will laugh in the comments, meanwhile, somebody somewhere is actually crying and questioning their self worth because of the nonsense we now call cruise.
Maybe I am weird o , I don't know, but I still strongly believe that if you say you love someone, you are supposed to protect them, not be the reason they stop believing in love, I believe that loyalty is not something to be ashamed of, and yes, I know that people always say, If you don’t do them, they will do you, but honestly, I would rather leave than turn into someone I can’t even recognize.
Maybe we really are in a generation where being toxic is seen as confidence, and being kind or loyal is seen as weakness, but I don’t mind being the weak one then, at least I will be able to sleep at night knowing I didn’t deliberately mess someone up.
At the end of the day, everybody will choose how they want to live, but me, I choose peace, I choose honesty, I choose to love properly, without forming heartbreak warrior, because love is supposed to be a good thing, not a battlefield, and if that makes me old school, then so be it, I will gladly hold my chalk and sit in that class alone.

I choose peace too , to live differently while setting the pace for myself.
Thank you sharing such timeless piece
Thanks for stopping by
Like it's not even normal at all, or you will hear something like man are polygamous in nature, as how now. If you cannot be in a relationship without cheating then don't marry.
Omo.... Like do you get? It's actually very annoying to even think about
Huhm, so deep.
Honesty and loyalty is now a very scarce commodity in today's world, cheating is now being endorsed for a particular gender while the other is always at the receiving end no matter what..
There's nothing old-fashioned about being faithful.
Thanks for sharing.

At all , nothing is old fashioned about it.
