Former NBA star Paul Pierce has come under intense criticism after a clip went viral showing him encouraging men to “ch+at” in order to test a woman’s love.
In the video, Pierce tells viewers that the surest way to know if a girlfriend truly cares is to be unfaithful and watch her reaction. “If you really wanna know if a girl loves you, go out and ch+at on her,” he said. “Then we’ll see what’s real.”
The comments quickly drew backlash across social media, with many branding his advice as t%xic and h+rmful. Critics argue that infidelity should never be used as a “loyalty test,” warning that such thinking promotes emotional manip+lation and undermines healthy relationships.
Relationship analysts also weighed in, stressing that trust, respect and honest communication not betrayal are the foundations of genuine love.
Pierce has yet to respond to the growing criticism as the clip continues to circulate widely online.
