“A promise must never be broken”

What this means is that if you break a promise u are unfaithful. You can not be trusted to being there at all time.You technically broke the rules. You can lose a friend by not keeping a promise because that's how much it meant for them for you to keep it. You are suppose to be loyal and honest. You can't lie and say that you kept it because they could find out later. An example is if you tell a friend that you promise to take them somewhere for their birthday and what happens when you don't keep it. They will be disappointed with you and hurt because that was important to them. Another example is if tell ur mom you promise to clean the house and end up not doing it. What are the consequences is your mom doesn't reward you or she might ground you for not keeping your promise. That is why a promise must never be broken.
