Once a liar, always a liar. Once a liar and cheater, always an ex.⁠


👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨 Speaking of romantics, lovebirds are something that pops up on my mind. In some cultures, however, Mandarin ducks (aka yuan yang) might be even more well-known.⁠

🦆They are the most terribly mistaken bird couple. In real life, there’s nothing romantic about them. Even worse, it’s the opposite. God knows why there’s a love story based on them.⁠

🔥 Hear me out. When mating season ends for the ducks, the males would just walk away from the female he just banged. He would just go on about his own business, and target another female, waiting for the next mating season to start. Instead of being the icon for love, they should probably be the new mascot for Tinder for their player DNA.⁠
