Cheat?

Honore de Balzac, a French novelist once described love as a game, in which one always cheated. From the royal family to commoners like us, it seems that betrayal has been back into fashion these days. Even a couple happily wedded for 20 years could be cheating on each other secretly. Is it a sign telling us to give up on love?

These days, everyone could come up with thousands of various reasons or excuses to cheat. "I didn't mean to", "It just happened", "I was drunk"... Aren't they just familiar? Can you really get a free pass to cheat because you are high? No! Call me old-fashioned. For me, committing to a relationship is a serious matter. If you are not ready for the responsibility, why date?
