Why is loyalty important in a couple?

At all times and in all cultures faithfulness was considered the foundation and pledge of a strong family and healthy offspring. And infidelity was considered a great sin and was often punishable by death. It can be assumed that all these are medieval prejudices and that in the modern world freedom of will and freedom of choice reign. But what do these beliefs lead to? To the fact that whole generations of people grow up, unable to build normal relationships and become happy. These people believe that sex in a relationship plays a major role, so when choosing a partner, they are primarily oriented toward his appearance, attractiveness, sexuality. They do not become attached to their partner spiritually, emotionally, they can easily change him to another, more attractive, or succumb to a sudden flare-up passion and commit treason.

Loyalty in relationships is first and foremost a sign of a person's maturity. Loyalty allows the partner to realize his value and uniqueness. Loyalty is a marker of the harmony of relationships. If both partners are true to each other, appreciate each other, communicate respectfully and on an equal footing, then such relationships can be called happy. If one of the partners starts to cheat, it says either his unwillingness to take responsibility, or that something goes wrong in a relationship. But attempts through infidelity to attract attention or satisfy one's ego very often lead to even more deplorable consequences. It will be better if you tell your partner about your experiences, about what does not suit you, and try to solve the problem together. If the partner really loves you and appreciates, then he will go to meet you. If not, then you should think about whether you need such a person? And on the path of betrayal, you run the risk of not only aggravating the problem, but also losing your partner's trust forever.

Loyalty is the free choice of a conscious personality, which is why it is so important in relationships. It shows the seriousness of the partner's intentions: one can not force a person to be true, neither threats nor appeals to a sense of conscience and justice will help. Loyalty teaches to control one's emotions, not to succumb to momentary desires and lust. Aware of making a decision to be true, a person fully assumes responsibility for the relationship and for his partner.
