He lamented that people are leaving relationships quickly because of false information about what the ideal relationship should be today.

‘‘People are quick to leave relationships because we are in a woke generation now where there’s a lot of misinformation going on, on how a perfect relationship should be.

“Maybe your man is treating you right, then you go on TikTok and you see something like, ‘Seven Signs He Is Not Your Man’ and if it resonates with your reality a bit, you dump your relationship,” the actor added.
