It's like asking if having a bottle of wine you love will stop you from drinking water, you may not want to drink water because of how you love your wine

but the truth is that when you become thirsty you must drink water because the wine alone can't quench your thirst

Love does not exist anymore.

It is all about interest.

Everyone comes with some expectations.

Love

OP, clarify what you understand "love" to mean.

Most times, it is a feeling we feel, more of passion but certainly not love. If you want to understand the meaning of love, watch how a chicken defends her chicks at the risk of its life. How many men do you know, who claim to love their wives, would instinctively give their lives for those they claim to love?

How many?

If you genuinely love your partner, you'd respect them and not cheat. Again, the dynamics of a cheat is not so complex to unravel other than plain stupidity and confusion.

PS: Love is not a feeling, love is not passion, love is not fickle, love is not a temptation, love is not greedy. When you truly love someone, that person would become the centerpiece of your existence. You'd put that person first even above yourself and your needs. You'd bother about how your actions may affect that person. You may look stupid, but you'd jump to take the bullet for that person. That love, provided it is genuine, may even push you to heroic deeds. The things I wrote about are impossible with many of us today. Many go into marriages with the intention of getting a partner to share the bills, many go into marriage for free sex, some to have their financial needs covered, even more do because others are getting married. How many people truly marry for genuine love? To further accentuate the meaning of genuine love, look at the Christ, the Love of God, the Word incarnate; despite all the atrocities we commit, the Lord Jesus Christ has never abandoned us. How many of us strive to be Christ-like in love?

How many can beat their chest in this regard and say "I do". To answer your question, genuine love and betrayal (cheating) are eternally parallel lines: they can never cross each other.

All is LOVE.
...isn't LOVE the slave, savouring the whip of despair suffered by the heart?
...one stole to eat, another ate and stole.....
LOVE bears them all.
How enticing the taste of the Devil's adventure, seeking you to be his wiseless advocate, only to find out that you lost all
...yet LOVE bore it all.
..this is beyond the flesh, it is about the soul.
LOVE rewards.

Nope, it isn't, some people just like adventures, it doesn't mean they don't love their husband/wife

Check out this theory.

LOVE is one thing outta hundred things a relationship needs.

But LOVE has been painted in such a way that, we expect LOVE alone to get a 100% passmark even when in reality it cant.

Nothing can stop a fornicator from cheating. Such person wouldn't even know what exactly love entails sef. Cos Love in it real essence is definitely enough to stop one from cheating...

xynerise:
Funny enough, I have heard people especially married men say they love their wives but they have side chics. I begin to wonder what power does love has towards infidelity?

Does it mean one can hurt the person he/she loves intentionally and still profess love for that person?

You reading this should ask yourself when you cheated (if you have), were you still in love with your partner?

If yes, then what is this LOVE we are talking about if it involves hurting the one we love? smiley

Does it mean we love verbally and not practically, or Love is not enough to stop one from cheating?



Love is nothing without faithfulness, commitment and common respect.
And any attempt to oversimplify love so as to accommodate lust should be considered awkward and grossly inappropriate.

If you truly love your partner and care about his/her emotional state, you won't share what solely belongs to him/her with anyone else.

Besides, exercising self control is central to keeping the sacred vows you made to your partner and realising you won't take infidelity from him/her will require you to desist from doing same.

Infidelity is not love and should be condemned and avoided.

Love has gone extinct a long time ago.

What we have is lust..

I love him because he’s tall or has money or big dicck

I love her because she has big boobs and azz or she’s beautiful or she’s this or that..

Those things are the gum but not a permanent gum..

Nah 1% people dey love he or her for who he or her is..

So in today’s world, cheating is allowed. Don’t get your hopes high that she or he won’t cheat at all..

Sometimes it’s usually necessary to cheat self cuz it’s kinda sweet and humans love doing sweet things regardless...Nah unnecessary cheat no make sense!

Love is enough, not the definition of love which to most people is all about emotions. Love is what is left when emotions are spent. It is integrity, responsibility,discipline and respect under one umbrella. Emotions are just accessory parts.

Love is self-control. You can't claim to love when you lack self-control.
