chance of they doing the same thing again. Once shame is gone, talking
about such things, cheating and thinking about rude things becomes
normal. Secondly one person should know the real defeat does not live
outside in the world, it lives inside once you get defeated inside then
nothing can make you face the world. Once a person does such thing
before marriage, then the charm of family relationship does not grow

marriage they can still do them after marriage. By the way mind control
by bad guys gets a bigger share from making people think and do
"unlawful rude things" than any other event and information source
