We live in a time where no one really believes in monogamy anymore. Everyone is so dead set on being “independent” or enjoy their youth by “enjoying” the company of the opposite sex.

Instead of treating it with love and respect we cheat, run away, or end it over something that could’ve been fixed or even avoided. I don’t think anyone cares enough to actually try personally I think we’re all too afraid to even make things better because we’re afraid of the unknown. We take the out we do what is the easiest we run and cower because that’s all we know that’s how we survive in his abyss of loneliness.
