I feel faithfulness haven’t been given enough publicity
that it deserves; when a young man is faithful to just one lady, he’s ridiculed
by friends as not being cool enough to have loads of ladies in his life. If the
thinking before marriage is to be promiscuous then how can one change that
mentality after the person is married? By then, it could become extremely
difficult to change from a promiscuous person to a faithful person.
Being faithful shows a whole lot of good qualities and I
would list seven qualities a faithful partner exudes.
1. MATURITY
Faithfulness shows maturity; only a mature minded person
can keep his or her calm and remain loyal to just one partner, while not giving
room for unfaithfulness to grow. Only a mature person can see the wrong in
cheating on a partner but see the plus side in remaining faithful. Faithfulness
isn’t just faithfulness, faithfulness is maturity. How mature are you?
2. CONTENT
Promiscuity shows discontent. It shows you just can’t
handle a relationship and be faithful to just one partner. Discontent isn’t a
good quality; it’s a symbol of greed and dissatisfaction. When you ask or agree
to a relationship with a partner, you have to find contentment in that
relationship, anything other than that shows immaturity.
3. SELF-CONTROL
Self-control control is total maturity; taking control of
your mind and your body isn’t an ordinary feat. Self-control control as well
shows content and satisfaction in your partner while blinding your eyes to
every other person. Self-control control isn’t being uncool, it shows maturity
and that’s what being faithful is all about.
4. VALUE
I would say this; if you value your partner totally, you
wouldn’t want to cheat on that person. Sticking to that partner and not
cheating shows that you value your partner and value your relationship as well.
Having value for your relationship and for your partner is a good quality
that’s exhibited in a relationship.
5. RESPECT
Being faithful is a respectful thing to do; it shows
respect to not only your partner but your relationship as well. When you
respect your partner’s feelings and emotions then you would fully understand
that cheating on that partner would hurt, and hurting the same person you
promised to care about doesn’t show respect—faithfulness shows respect.
6. FAITHFULNESS SHOWS
LOVE
Love isn’t just a mere word; it’s shown in words and
action. If you totally love your partner and you are honest with your partner
then you would be faithful to that partner. When you are faithful to that
partner, it shows you love your partner too much to have a fling with any other
man or woman.
7. TRUSTWORTHY
Of course, being a faithful man/woman shows you are
trustworthy. You can’t buy trust, you can only earn it, and it can’t be earned
by mere words but by action and faithfulness is one of those actions that would
make you earn the trust of your partner.
Faithfulness doesn’t mean you are weak and unattractive
like some people would say; faithfulness means you are honest and mature enough
to be in a relationship. How faithful are you?
