[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you going to leave your child too? Selfish (as you say you are) doesn't end with your husband.[/quote] No I could never leave him. I don't enjoy being a mother but I love him and am bonded to him. My love for him is instinctive but I find the rote tasks of caring for him completely exhausting and utterly joyless. In no way did motherhood complete me as a person or make me feel more whole. It stripped me of my identity as I struggle to work and take care of this tiny human. It's a weird contradiction bc I love him so much. It's hard to explain. [/quote] OP, you won't have to wait 18 years for this feeling to go away. Can you give it 2 years? You will likely feel much different then.[/quote]
