Interestingly enough, I recently had a conversation with one of my girlfriends about people (men and women), who cheat. You see, most of us have had a relationship that just didn’t go as expected and basically, we… got… played. But why?
Back in the day, couples tried to work things out, but the rules got lost somewhere in the younger generations… we lost our way. What happened? I recalled a conversation I had with one of my male friends who said; as long as he had options, he was going to cheat. Wow. Options huh?! But these options, why are they available? The problem is, people are allowing outsiders into their situations and as we all know, outside people will not respect commitments, especially if they see that it is not a priority to you. What’s worse, the persons in relationships are not regarding their commitment either. This is the ultimate formula for failure. Here it is, 2009, and we have females running around, hopping in bed with anyone who offers them a hot meal or drives a slick car, we have men trying to see how many bodies they can “catch,” and the victims are sitting at home taking the abuse. What is going on? Are options really to blame? Seemingly so.
So how do you eliminate options? Most likely, you can’t. All you can do is set your standards and tolerate nothing less than that 7 letter word, R-E-S-P-E-C-T! Really get to know someone before you let them into your world. While there may be options in the streets, you need to make yourself the only option at home. Otherwise, Opt Out!

Opt OUT! haha Luv it :) .. just like marketing preferences that you see at the bottom of all advertisements. Females should know its that easy. Good words mama!
Heather, I always get interested in what I read and your opinions on things and I do say I gotta agree.. Sex these days is too easy to get, I'm from the UK so I dunno how your boys in the states act but ALOT of my boys will sex someone just to say to there boys "I got laid". & girls will sleep with the "gangsters" thinking that they will get themself some respect from the people that supposedly "run things". So as you say RESPECT yourself, then respect from others will follow shortly.
