The comments is filled with people echoing this. Frankly, I don't trust people that say this and the primary reason is that it is UNTRUE. No matter how much you say it, it will never be true.
I've never slept with another woman while in a relationship....
This is not because my babe is the prettiest woman but because I am committed to her, I pledged to do right by her and I am disciplined.
It is easier to convince yourself about a lie (your partner is the most attractive) than to teach yourself discipline and responsibility.
This is why many of you jump on that convenient lie.
A friend once asked me and I quote:
Everyone looks up to your relationship and admires how you love and treat your babe. Do you think she is the prettiest lady?
Me: No, she isn't.
Him: Do you think there are better ladies out there? You know there are many fishes in the river.
Me: Very possible. But she is amazing. No doubt there are many fishes in the river & probably better but I like my fish. She is mine and that is what matter. I am committed to her.
What you need to develop is a sense of responsibility and commitment towards your partner. You chose them and so you have to respect them and respect the relationship. You don't have to lie about them being the most attractive person.
Relationship doesn't kill attraction for others. Commitment, respect for your partner and the relationship and a sense of responsibility is what would stop you from doing the unseemly.
In extending this thread, let me say that some of the values you project are your problems.
- Men are polygamous in nature
Maybe they are, maybe they are not. I cannot prove it but personal discipline will determine the respect you accord to your partner. Even a polygamous person can be irresponsible.
Polygamy should not be an excuse to be indiscipline. Be responsible
- Premium Pussy
This is just another excuse for irresponsibility. Interesting how your partner can miraculously be the most attractive person but their private part cannot be the most premium. There is no premium pussy anywhere, you just don't have control over your sex life.
I did mention earlier in the week that the best sex I had, I told the babe I didn't want to see her again. Coincidentally, I was her best sex and she was tearfully pleading for a relationship.
The point was simple, no woman would hold power of sex over me.
The same reason, I don't refer to emotional attraction as love. Love is intentional. It is not being a mumu. If my relationship end, the energy moves to the next person. I am not destroyed because I was loving intentionally not unexplainably as a mumu.
This is why, I can put a stop to it immediately if you choose to misbehave. There is nothing supernatural about you that made me do what I did. That was all me. I am always in control of my actions.
The greatest gift you will give to your family is discipline/responsibility.
You have to honour and respect your family - the woman you married because you are her home. You have to do it for your children because you are their first mentor and perception of masculinity.
Masculinity is leadership. Leadership is responsibility. You owe that to family.
I know I am responding to a woman but I tailored my response to men because the world will be a better place with more responsible men. Moreover, a woman can only dishonour and disrespect you if you allow her.
Meanwhile, the thread applies to both gender.
Yes, I shortened the thread intentionally. I had other things to write but maybe some other times.
As always, Peace, Love and Spaghetti 🍷.

Without you, I'm like an abandoned dog on the side of a highway. I have gift anxiety, even though I don't know your birthday. We can spend perfect days cooking and shopping together. I will write you real letters and send Daffodils when world apart.
I promise to always say YES when you ask "is my hair looking good tonight?" If your favourite colour is black, I will never point out that a red gown on you would make Venus jealous. I promise to cook you dinner every Friday and go to you your favourite places on our anniversary.
If I've never called you beautiful, it was because you look better than my compliment. I pledge to bring a whole new meaning to the world cannodle. I promised my mama that I'm not gonna settle for anything less than the best and if you say yes, thennI think I've kept my promise.
You people are too privilege on this app. You are far from the bite of poverty.
"No matter what" is a privileged statement. When I say people have excuse for going into crime, it basically means the action is wrong but I can understand why they did it.
I guess if you've been thrown out by Landlord, watch your dad embarrassed by debtors, seen your mom die cos you couldn't afford drugs, watch sister sleep with hunger aftwr hawking oranges and unable to go to school - the realities of millions - you'll understand better.
Countries are intentional about job creation because they understand that the human nature to survive will always surpass morality and law. No one cares about death sentence when inability to afford 20k drugs is killing their siblings.
A friend reminded me of the era when men were dragged 24/7? Era when guys were on the defensive. Drags day & night and guys were barely saying "Not All Men."
Even "Not All Men" dey bring more insult and many guys went quiet. Worse are those that turned ally for safety😊
OZOEMENA
He credits me and Odanz for changing the game, that men are now free to speak.
Now he says he feels for ladies because it feels like they are the ones on the defensive because there is always dragging of 9ja women left and right.
You all be safe. I'm retired with Alex Ferguson
Really, it was a terrible time. I was just observing and ignoring till it was impossible to ignore anymore. What broke the camel's back was that all allegations were easily believed and everyone turned against people without asking questions because you were afraid of E-feminist.
"I never want to be tagged a woman beater." 🤝" I swore I would never raise my hand on a woman no matter what"
What does that even mean? You think you deserve an applause. SMH
A woman beater is not someone that returns a slap. It is someone who beats women unprovoked. If an adult hits you, feel free to return the favour.
"No matter what" only teaches women that their actions have no consequences and that is why with they are consistently violent.
You are not a gentleman for opting to be a mumu. If you can overpower somebody, there is no reason to allow them put you under the yoke of physical bandage because you think saving yourself makes you violent or a woman beater.
Nobody tagged her a man beater for the knife marks.
"But I love her" is the reason may of you are dying in toxicity. What do you think love is?
Like @Mrpossidez said, "true desire is beyond chemistry. I agree that there can be no profound romance without chemistry, but chemistry in itself is not love, it is not genuine desire.
it is just compatibility combined with an addictive attraction."
You can keep holding on to the dance of butterflies to determine the reality of your intimate relationship. It is always a question of whether you like your peace or not.
I don't believe you can only love one person. That is a Hollywood proposal that has been repeated too often for the feeble minded. Love is not blind. Love is intentional. Just as you intentionally choose whom tondate, you can intentionally quit.
Brad was a fantastic playboy who knew what to say, what to do, where to go and damn well how to fuck. He was unapologetically toxic and noncommittal but of course, the bad guys always wins because the rush is more pleasing than peace
Cooper is a nice guy. Perfect career, gentleman, intentional man, family values, faithful, dream husband and perfect father but of course the good guys get nothing.
This is no canon but it is what hold sway most times when a toxic ex/lover is an option
Can you have it all? Maybe yes/maybe no
But the goal of marriage isn't to have it all. The goal of marriage is to strive for healthy family structure in which you can heartily love, be vulnerable but safe and raise children successfully.
