Relationships and marriages should be a sacred place between two people – a union free from distractions and outsiders.
However, many intruders and outsiders can stray into your relationships. Below are such people
1. Exes or former friends with benefits
Many people like to announce to their exes or people they’ve been intimate with that they are now in a relationship, and can you blame them?
Keeping boundaries and letting them know you are off limits and inaccessible is one of the best things you can do.
2. People who are just too nice
That nice friend that loves to help and orders food for you all the time, that neighbour that cooks for you, that man that sends you money, all that has to stop.
Even if your partner is not concerned about it, you don’t know what hidden intentions the ‘nice’ person may have and you don’t want to feel indebted to them.
3. Some friends
Friends are a tricky subset, some have your best interest at heart and some don’t. You don’t know what lies in the heart of anyone, so try not to discuss unnecessary details about your relationship with them. Many ladies have lost their boyfriends to their friends. Even guys make moves on their friends’ babes.
You really don’t want to give more space than is required in your relationship to any of these people.
4. Instagram baddies and Snapchat slay queens
Never underestimate the power of slay queens. If you know you are attracted to certain people online, the best thing isn’t to slide into their DMs but to mute or unfollow them – a word is enough for the wise.
