I’m not under pressure to love anyone – Actress Beverley Osu
Actress Beverly Osu has admitted to ignoring many red flags in her relationships because of love.
In a recent interview, the Anambra State born stated, “Yes, I have overlooked red flags many times, even in platonic relationships, but never due to pressure. It was all about love, hope, and grace. There is absolutely nothing I would have done differently because everyone I have ever loved needed my love at that time.
“The reasons are endless, but it can happen to the best of us. Women are nurturers and healers by nature, and with the rise of narcissistic men, it’s likely that any woman will encounter a narcissist at least once or twice in her lifetime.
“However, setting boundaries is an ongoing process that requires a certain level of self-awareness. It’s important to prioritize yourself and identify your non-negotiables for the sake of your well-being and mental health. Most importantly, ladies, learn detachment. This way, we can move on from anything that doesn’t nourish our hearts, bodies, and minds.”
Osu also emphasized that she does not feel pressured to be in a relationship. She said, “I am never under pressure to love. I love to love; it can’t be forced. It’s true that today’s dating world has changed how we approach relationships. This change occurs because people are more aware of themselves, and the options are limitless. We are all evolving, so our needs, mindsets, and lifestyles are also changing.
“Let’s not blame ourselves for a love lost, whether in a marriage or a relationship. Both individuals are involved, and the outcome cannot be solely attributed to one person’s shortcomings. Be accountable, but avoid self-blame.”
