The Dark Side of Loyalty: What Class 8 & 9 Taught Me About Trust.
THE DARK SIDE OF LOYALTY: What class 8 & 9 taught me about Trust. ----------------------------------------------- INTRODUCTION:- We are often taught that loyalty is a strength. From a young age, we hear things like “stay loyal,” “be a true friend,” and “never leave your people.” It sounds right. It feels right. But what no one tells us is that loyalty also has a dark side.

In school, especially in Class 8 and 9, friendships feel everything. You trust easily. You support without thinking. You stand by people even when things don’t feel right.

Blind loyalty is not strength—it is a silent weakness. ---------------------------------------------...
