To put the woman by your side into a position where others see her as a joke is nothing but sheer cowardice.
When you allow people to laugh behind her back while you wrap your arms around her in front of everyone, youre not just failing as a partneryoure failing as a person.
Theres nothing more humiliating than watching a woman love genuinely while others give her pitying looks, simply because they know a truth youre hiding from her. Theres nothing lower than betraying someone who trusts, cares for, and respects you.
She walks proudly next to you, completely unaware that someone else is stifling a laugh, thinking to themselves, If only she knew…
Thats not manliness. Thats fearfear to leave and fear to be honest.
Cheating and turning the woman by your side into a target for ridicule destroys what matters most: respect. Without respect, theres no love. There are no excuses, either.
A true man isnt the one who impresses dozens of women, but the one who protects the dignity of one. And if you dont have the strength to keep your word, at least have the decency not to make her the last one to find out.
Because that kind of shame never disappears. It lingers.
Today, writing this in my diary, Ive realised that respect is the foundation of everything. When its lost, nothing else can take its place. Thats a lesson I wont forget.
