The Brand New Significant Other

I don't know about y'all, but my wheels have completely fallen off! This article is for all the ones who had that supporting spouse or significant other in their corner, and treated them like a sub-level human after "making it". Yes, I have not lost all faith in relationships, but I will never put another women through school and to see her run off with another guy.

I can provide example after example and story after story of how people are treated like this all the time. Are we at the point where help from the other is no longer a requirement to pay back loyalty? What is the purpose of building relationships, when the person with the lesser moral compass decides to take the back door route when things are sunny to leave the supportive one in the rain?

We are in a state of social disorder! DMC was the worse case of them all. His long time girlfriend, was left with nothing after his death. I'm not a die hard fan and not the one to walk on anyone's grave, but this man was not right by her and there is no telling the support she provided behind closed doors.

My intent for this article is not to lower the moral for the audience, but raise a thought into something that should be created in law. We have marriage to protect (unfortunately mostly women) people when there is a divorce proceeding that will hopefully divide the estate to the departed. This is not a fair process because the person with the most money wins the divorce (this sham, right here) in most cases. There are business contracts to help regulate business deals and there are even leases for apartments. There is just about everything in place to protect a great deal of our lives, but nothing when it comes to a spouse or a significate other to start acting "brand new" when they have "made it".

This is why "ride or die" is rapidly going south and there is no sure fall when a person is abandoned after supporting someone to have that very person spit in their face when success comes. So what is the term "Brand New"? Well it is normally when a person is on the bottom half of success or with limited financial resources, and they cannot remember the individual or people that helped them get through the hard times when they have "made it". We've all experienced someone who has put the "Brand New" vibe on at some point or another. Very disappointing to see our family members turn on us, but it is most painful when the people we open our feelings and turn on us at the brink of success.

What are some features this law should have to encourage people to be loyal, or just leave others alone and not to use people for their good intentions? The main problem is that we cannot encourage people to "do" better. This is one of the reasons why there is a gap in relationship building. My advice to those who are still trying to seek relationships is to take time, and let that person establish themselves as much at possible. There are no laws on Earth to punish disloyalty. There is no true method to expose a person's intentions or read their mind. This method to "ride or die" is not a comforting feeling when the supportive one is dying, while the immoral one is constantly riding. Watch out for those who are quick to use this term. "I need a ride or die by my side". Sometimes, it might just be better to die and not let anyone ride on the labor of others.
