First impressions can be deceiving, especially when emotions are involved.
Kenyan content creator Shorn Arwa has sparked conversation online after candidly describing how she behaves when she develops feelings for someone.
The digital personality shared a light-hearted but honest reflection on her TikTok page, saying that people should appreciate the affectionate version of her while it lasts because it eventually fades.
Her remarks have resonated with many social media users, reigniting discussions about love, emotional attachment and how people’s personalities can change as relationships evolve.
‘Enjoy That Moment’
In the video, Arwa explained that her behaviour changes once the excitement of a crush wears off.
“When you suspect that I’m in love with you and I’m all sweet to you, enjoy that moment because once that delusion wears off, I’m a totally different person,” Shorn Arwa said.
