There Are Those Who, Unfortunately…
There are those who, unfortunately, reach adulthood without having experienced loyalty—which, if we think about it, is not all that common. However, those who have been fortunate enough to find themselves in the right circumstances to assimilate it must take a step further. No matter how much they value it, no matter how many important lessons they have learned through it, they must realize its inadequacy for sustaining a relationship.

May at least the words and example of Jesus serve as consolation.
