We all know who a security guard is and what he does. Well not all of them are uniformed, not all ifothem have a badge, not all of them report to an agency. Don't be surprised, they live among us.

We have people guarding other people like security guards. It is called being over protective. Some mistake this for love, it's not exactly love. It's selfishness.
Let me give some instances: husbands and wives watching each other's every move, suspecting every little thing and quarreling for little or nothing. Unmarried people holding down someone they are not married to. This one is also not good.

Beware of some people who hold you down and not let you get involved with any other person, but do not have any intention of being serious with you themselves. Run run run from time wasters.

Siblings of opposite sexes also get so attached that they do not feel comfortable with the other being with an opposite sex. Another one is a father who can not stand the sight of his grown daughter being with a man. Will he marry her? No! Yet he just can't let her feel free.

Then a mother whose son is married, yet she detest his wife for taking her son away from her, but does not blame the son for getting married. She wouldn't even consider how much her son may have chased this lady before she decided to be his wife. She just chooses to think that the lady must have forced herself on her son. How pathetic .

Well this is not love, because love has many attributes and selfishness in not one of them. If you truly love someone then their freedom should be important to you.

Some people walking outside prison walls are not as free as they look. Don't imprison your loved ones.When you keep them in prison the relationship becomes really toxic for them. One day they will be free and you may end up becoming their enemy.Whatch it!
