Why You Should Always Call out Disloyalty When You See It!

Silence Brings Violence!

As I sit here wonder if I'm good enough? Did I do something? Is it my looks? Was I too pushy?

You might ask yourself these questions after a partner has cheated on you or when a friend talks behind your back might even tear down the self-confidence that you have left. Truth is, none of those questions will get you a frank answer. Disloyalty is mostly an act of selfishness or being loyal to someone else which usually is a cause of one manipulating or another act of selfishness in the process. What in this universe makes that ok or acceptable? Why would some of us still be a friend or spouse to one who does that action? Why would we settle with someone who is disloyal?

Love? Understanding? Desperation? Lack of love so we settle with fake love? Most of us been a victim of one of these reasonings or even all of the above. When we settle for this when we let disloyalty fly act like it never happened, let it go without proper communication, it allows that human being to think that disloyal act was easy to get away with or maybe even think it is ok. Yet the worse is letting that person get away with it so they feel comfy doing it again or a bystander who watches it happen to think your someone they can run over on as well.

Let just ONE fake action slip by unaddressed many more will come your way possibly by the same person who originally pulled that action or others who know about it. Damaging your reputation, at some point, you have to stand up for yourself. If you don't then who will? If you allow betrayal today then when will you stand up for yourself? Let it happen once, twice then it becomes a habit at this point you will become a doormat.

Intimidate yet still be the same you. Intimidate anyone who crosses that boundary, you do not want people to fear you but respect you. Intimidation does not always consist of fear or terrorizing one physically, be intimidating with knowledge, beauty in the soul, how you walk, the rareness of loyalty you possess people are going to grab ahold of and never let go or mess it up.

Scared of losing you. Doing anything to keep you on their side to have your loyalty, love, trust in their lives that is when you know you made it known not to cross that line with you. Just make sure you know when one is taking advantage of that or is lying then draw that line again kick them out of your life. The biggest thing you do not want happening is people thinking it is ok or you going off doing the same to others continuing a cycle that can be deadly. Be the difference in your generation put your foot down in the start and keep on doing so.

Know your worth then anyone who did you wrong will be the biggest regret they will carry on with them for most of their lives. Silence only brings violence. If we all stay quiet when we something wrong where would the planet be today? Slavery still be going on? would Hitler have decades of more power? Do women have no voting rights even any rights at all? Brave men and women did not stay silent when they saw an action that was wrong or violent keep that tradition going SPEAK UP!

Do not let disloyalty slide it will get you hurt, and hurt people hurt people, don't be someone hurt and commit the act of disloyalty. Stop the cycle or it will keep on going. Stand up for what is right because if you don't who will ever know it is wrong? STAY CONSISTENT SHOW HUMANS HOW YOU DON'T NEED A GUN TO INTIMIDATE
