| OP, all the women who are telling you that you're being unreasonable would scream "DIVORCE HIM NOW!" if a woman complained that her husband refused to say she was the love of his life. |
|
Does she love you now? Are you two compatible? Do you have a good life together? These are the important questions.
|
We wouldn't ask. Most of us do not have the mind-set of an immature teen. |
If my husband started grilling me about whether I'm the love of his life, I'd worry about early onset Alzheimer's disease. What does being the love of someone's life have to do with the quality of a relationship? |
|
Do you still have sex?
Is she still in shape? Are you being controlled or abused quietly? Do you have children you want to see every day? Answers should be Yes, Yes, No, Yes. And you are doing pretty well even if she isn't proclaiming off the rooftops that you are the love of her life. |

| Concentrate less on how your wife feels about you and more about how to be a great partner and have a great relationship. If you both agree that you're doing a great job as a spouse but there are still issues, then reexamine. |
If you're only hanging out with women who want you to be the love of your life then you're hanging out with silly women. |
|
Your wife has been with you for 20 years. She knows you, or should, and and should be able to sense that you need this proclamation. It's not immature, its just how you view marriage.
Some view it as a business transaction, especially on DCUM, and anything that gets in the way of continuing that transaction is not valid--love, sexual desires and happiness be damned. If this is what you need, go for it. |
| Barbara Bush—a fine and decent woman— would have almost certainly described George HW as the love of her life (and vice versa). Very few couples will achieve that type of love and partnership but it is certainly worth aspiring to. Nothing immature or fake about what Barbara and George HW Bush had together. |
Nah. |
x1000. |
Are you a man? How many times has a woman asked you this question in your lifetime? And don't lie... |
And I'm talking adult women, not middle/high school-aged girls. |
| People might say their partner is "the love of their life". People say all kinds of different things. Op thinks ending his relationship over this is ... normal? I'm a woman. I've been happily married for a long time. I think Op is very odd. |
