My mum because she has to. My sister. My dad in his own way. I think that’s it. Pretty sad really.
I did have someone who loved me once but it didn’t work out. And I don’t have children.

my DC love me dearly as do my parents. I also like to think that DCat loves me too but I may just be his major food source.

DH doesn't love me, I don't have siblings or friends so I suspect that is it.

YouWinAgain · 22/02/2019 17:14

My DD

My mum

My brother (50/50 I think, sometimes we hate each other)

My granddad

My cat (although she's currently glaring at me and then at her food bowl so she might hate me right now)

DM, she always has and I am very grateful, but she is in her 92nd year and in need of our support now

DSis, because she was the first person other than DM, that i noticed loving me unselfishly. I am no longer #1 with her, but ai know that she would help if i needed. I am still in the process of showing her i am an adult and to be trusted to support

DH is older so more likely to need help, but would have my back and i

Kojak.

Probably definitely showing my age there... Blush

Budsbegginingspringinsight · 22/02/2019 21:28

DC and dh . Every one else dead

Mamabear12 · 22/02/2019 21:38

Interesting question to ask. My mother, dd, ds, sister, dh, dog, (my father, but he has passed). I have extended family and friends that I know care about me.

Op I hope everything is okay with you and times are better. Hard times can really test us. I went through a very hard year and I’m still trying to get over it all. I am lucky there are a lot of people around me who are there for me. I think there are more people out there willing to help then you know. I’ve felt people care and be kind, who I barely know (I know them through a course I’m doing). I’ve also seen people help others and care and be kind. I hope you too are able to meet such people.

GirlOnIt · 22/02/2019 21:39

DP
My mum
My grandparents (mums)
Grandparents (dads) I think do but not in the same way my mums do if that makes sense.
My dad would say he does but he doesn't love anyone but himself.
Three friends whom say they do and I do them. Others I think care but loves probably too strong.
My great aunt

DS is 4 months so he loves me because he knows no different. I guess that counts though and hopefully he'll still love me when he's older.

Kojak.

Damn, beaten to it!

All those people saying cats......not a chance. You can lavish love and affection on it for years, but if someone moves in down the street with better food, you won't see the fucker for dust.

Whatjusthappenedthere · 22/02/2019 21:44

My dogs
My children
My Husband - he tells me all the time.
At least 2 of my 3 siblings

My ex Husband wishes me dead. Grin

DimplesToadfoot · 22/02/2019 21:59

No one... Ever

I don't have a mum or dad so no other relatives. Live alone,, no bf and as the last one nearly killed me there will never be another.

As a kid I felt it, but now I don't think I give a monkies

C0untDucku1a · 22/02/2019 22:03

My parents my children my husband my dog my grandma

Im not sure about my cats. One of them quite clearly sees all humans as an inconvenience. She also frequently appears to ‘accidentally’ trip my on the stairs.

LifeOfBriony · 22/02/2019 22:03

DS, DD, 2 parents, DH (but not as much as he should or did), 2 brothers, young nephew, one friend. I used to have cats who did.

What makes me sad is that I don't think I am the most important person in anyone's life. DS might say I am (I can't think who might be the most important person to him). DD, parents and one brother are all happily partnered. Other brother and nephew would say each other. DH - dont know who he would choose, tbh. My 'best' friend has a different 'best' friend (and is happily married with 2 DCs).

I have very few friends, and I have colleagues who think a lot of me (and I do them) but that's not love.

RJnomore1 · 22/02/2019 22:04

EVErybody loves me

Well everybody that matters does anyway.

RickOShay · 22/02/2019 22:05

My dog, he knows the words I love you Grin
dh
dc though question mark over teenage dd
my sister
my nephews
my two best friends

my mum is long dead, and my dad doesn’t really love anyone, same with my aunts.
I am close to a couple of my cousins, but I don’t know if they love me.
i fail the cats dailyGrin but the important thing is I adore them obvs.

LifeOfBriony · 22/02/2019 22:05

There's a lot of sadness on this thread. Flowers to all who need them.

ethelfleda · 22/02/2019 22:18

Doesn’t feel like anybody does to be honest! DDs (15 months) seems to only want me for boob and even slaps me when nursing and DH can’t seem to stand the sight of me - I’m currently sat on my own in my living room with wine while he has walked to the pub to have a pint on his own.
I don’t even love me!
Wine loves me though.

ethelfleda · 22/02/2019 22:19

That should say DS not DDs!!

cookiemon666 · 22/02/2019 22:27

My kids, the dogs, my amazing parents and the cats if its food time🤣🤣🤣🤣

Notcontent · 22/02/2019 22:29

I have to confess that I also always think that everyone has loads of family and friends that love them. I only have my parents (who I know really care about me) and my dd. I know that feeling sorry for yourself is not an attractive trait but I can’t help it.

wheresthehope · 22/02/2019 22:30

My dogs the most
My mum
My DP
1 of my cats (other hates me)

Maelstrop · 22/02/2019 22:32

My DH. My dogs. My horse. My aunt and cousins. I don’t think my parents understand the concept.

Samcro · 22/02/2019 22:33

DH, ds and dd
other family ....who knows

Amanduh · 22/02/2019 22:33

Ds, dh, mum, dad. Brother, SIL and his 2 children. 8 aunties, 7 uncles. 10 cousins. 3 grandparents. One very very close best friend and her dh and her dds. It may not seem that much but I feel lucky to be loved by 30 odd people. I love them all.
