WHEN DID CHEATING BECOME ENTERTAINMENT?
We turned betrayal into entertainment.
A married man cheats, people laugh. A married woman cheats, people trend it. Side chicks are now “goals”. Secret affairs are now “content”. Loyalty is mocked like weakness.
And somehow, society calls this “cruise”.
What exactly happened to shame? What happened to integrity? What happened to protecting the people who trust us with their hearts?
The painful part is not even the cheating anymore. It is how comfortable people have become destroying homes, traumatizing partners, confusing children, and calling it fun online.
Some people are secretly battling depression because the person they built their future around betrayed them.
Some children grow up watching hatred replace love in their homes. Some people can no longer trust again because one act of selfishness damaged them emotionally.
Yet the internet claps. Friends encourage it. Comment sections normalize it.
We are raising a generation that laughs at loyalty and celebrates deception like it is wisdom.
Not everything should become “cruise”. Some things reveal the collapse of values in real time.
If faithfulness now looks old-fashioned to society, then maybe society is more broken than we want to admit.
