Gloria Kyallo, media personality Betty Kyallo’s youngest sister, has defended her approach to relationships, saying she is not ashamed of loving deeply and believes genuine affection should never be mistaken for weakness.
In a post shared on her Instagram Stories on Sunday, July 26, 2026, Gloria reflected on modern dating, arguing that many people have become so focused on protecting themselves from heartbreak that they have forgotten what healthy love looks like.
Lover girl
Gloria described herself as someone who loves wholeheartedly and remains committed to the people she cares about. She added that she expects the same level of love, loyalty and devotion from a partner.
“This is genuinely one of the most misunderstood parts of relationships. I’m a lover girl through and through. The devotion and loyalty I’m capable of giving the people I love goes beyond words, and the beautiful part is, I’d want exactly that in return,” Gloria wrote.
Her remarks appeared to challenge the growing online belief that showing too much affection in a relationship makes someone a “simp” or emotionally weak.
Healthy love
According to Gloria, people should not feel pressured to hide their feelings simply to avoid appearing too invested in a relationship.
She argued that the focus should not be on caring less, but on choosing people who genuinely value and reciprocate that love.
“Let’s be real. There’s nothing shameful about loving deeply or being deeply loved. We don’t need to downplay affection just to seem less invested. The goal isn’t to care less; it’s to care for the right people who choose us wholeheartedly,” she said.
Gloria also noted that healthy relationships should not revolve around keeping score or constantly questioning who is making more effort.
‘Love should be freely given’
She said many people now spend too much time worrying about who sent the last message or who appears more emotionally invested, creating unnecessary pressure in relationships.
“I think we’ve become so focused on protecting ourselves from looking ‘too available’ that we’ve forgotten what healthy love is supposed to feel like. It shouldn’t feel like you’re constantly calculating who texted last, who cares more, or who’s giving too much,” she explained.
She added that when two people genuinely choose each other, openly expressing affection should be seen as a sign of a healthy relationship rather than something to be embarrassed about.
“When two people genuinely choose each other, being openly affectionate isn’t embarrassing, it’s just love,” Gloria wrote.
Gloria concluded her message by making it clear that she has no problem being labelled a “simp” if it means loving sincerely. “There isn’t anything greater than love. If that’s ‘simping’, then sign me up. Immediately,” she concluded.
