After all she has been through. She still has healthy boundaries, self esteem and non negotiable values.
By making it public, she taught a powerful lesson to other women.
Cheating is a character flaw and I wish people weren’t so forgiving about it. It shows a willingness to deceive, to prioritize short-term desire over integrity, and to disregard the trust someone else has placed in them.
Disgusting.
I have ALWAYS believed that you can be cordial and close-ish with a man’s family but you HAVE to always remember that they are NOT your blood kin. I have seen my biological family wait until my SIL leaves the room to shit talk her WITH my brother.
They are NOT your family.
My own hot take is that nothing will stop a partner who is bent on embarrassing you, no matter how careful, cautious, discreet, or calculating you are.
Also I hate the phrase “men will embarrass you”. I refuse to internalize a man’s inability to have self respect and loyalty.
He didn’t embarrass me, he’s embarrassing himself. He’s mad!
I am fiercely opposed to women moving straight from their parents' homes into a shared living arrangement with a romantic partner. Live alone first. Get to know yourself outside those attachments.
You tell yourself you’ll stop ranting about Nigeria, but every day you see bad news that makes you angry all over again.
It’s really exhausting. This is not life
Men aren’t confused… they know exactly what they’re doing. They know when they’re inconsistent, when they’re giving the bare minimum, and when they’re playing games. They just hope you like them enough to accept the BULLSHIT
its not even this, the problem is that they are recording you as well. the last wedding i attended, all the vendors had content creators, some people in the bridal train had content creators, two guests on my table had content creators, even some content creators had their own content creators to film BTS content. there's literally a mobile device shoved in your face from all angles. its exhausting
most importantly, ensure you have an excellent work ethic. they may say you are difficult, but nobody will ever deny that you are the one who will get the job done
