[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always feel like it would be impossible to fall out of love with your spouse once you've had children together -- having children just feels like such a bonding experience -- i can't imagine ever wanting to leave my spouse now that we have two kids. But you never know. It's scary to think how things can change quickly.[/quote] I think for divorced couples with children, they always love their ex-spouse [i]as the parent of their child[/i]. But that is not the kind of love that can sustain you through fundamental incompatibility and/or the tough things that life throws at all of us, so I can see how it happens. Be lucky you feel that way! [/quote] I strongly disagree with both of these statements. Kids can expose the minor cracks in your marriage and widen them. They are really the merging together of your upbringing and values -- so much moreso than marriage. I don't love my ex-spouse in any capacity... I barely have any shred of respect for him. However, that doesn't mean I would ever make it difficult for him to see our children. That only hurts the kids. (My mom used to make it hard for my dad...and all I remember is how that bothered me as a kid.)[/quote]
