If you love your children more then your partner.

I am in a thread right now and one BG mama is upset that I said I love my SO more then my kids but I would never tell them that. I bolded that part because no one seemed to read that part. A lot of woman said that they do love their children more then their husbands.

I want to know for those woman, what happens when the kids leave? What happens when the kids move out and have families of their own?

Edit; Not asking if who you love more, just what are you going to do when they (the children) leave.

I love my husband more than my children.  

I will still love them more. But it is a diffrent kind of love then I have for my husband.

I get what you're trying to say....
But I don't see it that way. I see the love I have towards my children as a completely different type of love than I feel for my husband. I don't see it as being more or less.

Its a different kind of love. If I ever needed to choose between my partner or my kids my kids would come first, its the same kind of thinking. Nothing will change when they move out and have their own family.

I don't have an answer to your question, because I love them equally, just in different ways.

Quoting 𝒮unкissed:" I love my husband more than my children.  "

Lol

I think it's two different kinds of love.

But I love my daughter more than anything and everyone hands down

I love my husband a lot i love my baby alot. I love them both the same equally but in different ways.

I was told by a pastor that you're supposed to love your partner more than your children. I think I love them all equally in different ways.

I couldn't imagine my life w/o my DH or DS. I love them very much but in different ways. I am pretty sure I love DS more than DH. I carried him and felt him move and was in agony while birth lol. I donno, it's just me though  

I guess I don't really think of it quantitatively. They're two completely different things.
My son is a part of me and that right there is a completely different bond than you will ever have with another human being. I was deeply in love with my ex but I wouldn't take a bullet for him like I would my son.
It's just different! I dunno, I can never really imagine thinking "I love my husband more than my kids" or vice versa.

I love them the exact same. I'm absolutely head over heels for both of them- very different kind of love though.

I can't really compare my love for both of them....they are completely different tho connected yeah...I would die for both

Quoting kate & tilly:" I was told by a pastor that you're supposed to love your partner more than your children. I think I love them all equally in different ways."

Why would a pastor tell you that? Seems silly.

I love both my child and my husband, just in different ways. I can't say I love one more than the other. I just love them both. *shrugs*
