"I will hate them because you do",
"I won't speak to them because of your insecurities",
"My child is treating their friends like shit, so I'll enable it",
"My best friends are fighting so I'm going to pick a side".
What loyalty does mean:
Honoring unconditional love in it's purest form.
Not a manipulated, contaminated, narcissistic form because of another person's sob story or actual trauma.
Loyalty has alot to do with connection and being committed to those you love, especially when they aren't committing to themselves or are treating your other loved ones like shit too and especially when it comes to self.
You don't have to pick sides to be loyal.
As lonely as it is, be loyal to yourself
when all else and everyone else fails in their conditional love.
