In certain cases, love can resemble a kid's game in which individuals are incredibly close to one another, but as time passes, the emotion gradually wanes to the point where people start to act as though they had never met.

Nowadays, there are a lot of pretenders when it comes to love, making it difficult to identify genuine relationships or to determine if you are actually in one. Both men and women who practice "mjolo" to fulfill their demands in life or for a certain amount of time use this widespread phrase, which is heard practically everywhere nowadays.

Both sexes have taken to cheating under the guise of "mjolo" because they are desperate for a lost connection .The rich will bribe them by flashing their wallets and asking them to fall in love, regardless of whether they are married or not—as long as they fall in love. Many wholesome relationships have been disrupted and scattered by the group known as "Ama2k," wherein young girls are falling in love with older guys in order to satisfy their own desires.

Apart from the ‘Ama2k’ squad, there are those ladies who call themselves slay queens. Slay queens are those ladies who are seen everywhere with a kind of stylish and luxurious lifestyle and also move from one man to another within a short period of time, and they are not even ashamed of that kind of style as they will be labeling themselves as ‘hot chicks’ in the city.

However, this trend also has negative impacts on life, especially for women, which will undoubtedly backfire in future life and relationships. The main issue is that when men notice desperation in a woman they will take advantage of that by acting like they are looking for a serious relationship, but in turn they will use that as a means to get to you.

The scariest case scenario is falling ill from all that bed-hopping. Jumping from one partner to another is being taken as a hobby, yet one will be destroying one's health, spirituality and overall well being.

Please, ladies and gentlemen, stop playing with life. Nobody can save your life when you are in danger; you are the only one who can defend yourself. The best way to keep your relationship intact is to practice staying faithful to one spouse; the strongest foundations are created while you are together. In addition, one must learn to work hard rather than take quick routes in order to obtain anything they may need in life.
