As husband could leave anyday (they come and go, obviously )
Do you feel more love for your child ?

I love my DC and detest my XH, even when he wasn't X - I did love him but it's totally different love.

Yes, which is as it should be imho, and I would totally expect DH to say the same.

DumSpiroSpero · 03/10/2013 21:54

I do agree though, that it's a different sort of love.

On a day to day basis I don't 'notice' the difference in any significant way, but if the chips were down DD would come before anyone else every single time.

I love my kids more than my husband and have told him so where as he is the opposite. I don’t understand how you can love anyone more than your kids

I just made this account so that I could answer to all the people I tagged this: you, I repeat, you are ALL HORRIBLE PEOPLE. Looking at the profile of someone else only because they have a different opinion is disgusting and REEKS of insecurity. It's even more disgusting how bunnylebowski goes as far as to call someone "surrendered wife" only because of her schizophrenic delusions about a poster's life she doesn't even know and somehow implying that being to the person you love is BAD in the first place. Loving your husband more, as many people already said, is the correct thing. You have sex with your son? No. You sleep with your son? No. Will you live with your son together for all your life? No. The fact that you talk about how your husband would abandon you shows a lot of insecurity and how you either choose the wrong partner or are very mean to your husband for no reason at all. I can only hope your kids don't end up having a bad life with you as their mothers, but considering how you talk about your husbands, you will probably divorce him after the kids are out of the house. You better hope that any of youe children will keep visiting you after you are left alone and loveless (assuming your children even care about mothers that don't even love their husbands in the first place.

Don't worry, you said NOTHING wrong. More people are starting to realize this and are starting to shower with love not only their children, but their husbands too. With people like the ones that answered you, it's no wonder that the divorce rate is so high in places like the U.S.

And for any people reading these posts, PLEASE, IGNORE THEM. They come from very mean and bitter woman. Love your wife/husband MORE than your children and they will thank you for it. You should look at the point of view of the people saying that to understand them better (because surprise surprise, the morons that answered didn't even try to understand them). With all this said, bye!

Yes i agree that there is different love for a partner and a child but at the end of the day it's still love.

I see it in this way, could i live without a partner/husband- yes
Could i live without my kids- not in a million years.

I love my husband equally, if not a little more. I think weirdly that love is stronger, because it isn't unconditional. It isn't biological, inherent - i choose to love him, choose to work on our relationship, choose to be with him.

My child, my love for her, feels completely different. It is in my bones, it is a part of my DNA just like she is, just like my love for my parents, but just like with them i didn't choose her, i got her in the lucky draw of life.
