The most disturbing “trend” is taking place and I cannot wait for it to go out of style! Take a minute to scroll through any form of social media and you’ll find countless stories of cheaters. Most of them are making fun of or flat out condoning the act.
The new term fuckboy is thrown at guys left and right and they LOVE it thanks to social media! Why doesn’t anyone see it? They haven’t come up with a cleverer name for a girl being a hoe that I have witnessed but it’s just as bad with girls.
The countless amount of “people,” though I rather use the word animals, that are out there cheating on someone they blast all over social media about how much they LOVE them or people out there bragging about “stealing” someone’s spouse is getting out of hand.
Social media has brought on the ease of secrecy in all relationships and has caused an influx of people jumping right for another person’s comfort and approval instead of working on what they have already. You and your significant other get into a fight? Okay, let’s just scroll through the hundreds of followers and find someone to take their place to feed you lines that make you feel happy again for a few hours.
It’s too easy. And there lies the issue. Everyone today wants something easy, not real. One girl has a backbone (or attitude as you may call it), cool, you can jump to the next girl in line on your Instagram account. This guy didn’t buy you the overly expenses stupid thing you wanted, cool, you can go and message that Fuckboy back that has been messaging you on Facebook.
Honestly, I feel social media has caused more issues than it has every helped eliminate. Everyone is over-stimulated with non-stop photos of overly photoshopped or filtered men and women and overly exaggerated happy couples and it has created this unrealistic idea of what your SO should look or act like.
Horribly enough, there are humans that are born with that hoe or fuckboy gene and can’t contain themselves. The ease of contact through social media has made it a “playground” of sorts for people looking to ruin the cute relationships or slightly rocky ones with their inability to keep their fucking hands to themselves!
But, what do we do? We make “funny” memes and videos out of people’s infidelity. We gossip about people’s failed relationships like they are daily news and never bat an eye when we hear another relationship was ruined by a cheating partner.
We have made cheating so mainstream that no one seems to hold relationships to the high standard that they once were. We, as a generation with slipping and at times downright nonexistent morals, have lost all the true meaning of giving your heart to another person.
If we could all just stop liking, sharing, following, etc. the posts, pages, and sites that condone this type of behavior I think we would be a lot better off. Also, if our generation would stop getting into a relationship just to be able to say we are in one.
My wish is for people to stop having their hearts go through a meat grinder because our generation just lacks comment decency. We need more old souls in this world and we need more REAL love.
