[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my husband couldn’t support me emotionally and be my best friend, we wouldn’t be together. For me that’s an important part of feeling complete trust in our relationship.[/quote]

I’m  an earlier poster.  This [b]whole “husband as a best friend” thing is kind of dumb.[/b] Is he probably the closest person in the world to me in terms of knowing my inner thoughts and day-to-day activities? Absolutely. And we connected emotionally? Absolutely. Do I also use other people in my life for emotional support? Also yes.[/quote]

¯\_(?)_/¯ You do you. But I’m being honest. Men are capable of having this emotional connection. Most of the men my friends are married to are this way. If it works for you not to have it, that’s chill. For me it would be a nightmare to live with someone who wasn’t a source of emotional support. I’d be sad for my kids too not to have someone who was fully emotionally available as a father.[/quote]

Let me repeat from above:
Are we connected emotionally? Absolutely.

He IS a source of emotional support, but far from my only one.  [/quote]

Then why are you arguing with the post you responded to? She said her husband was her best friend, not her only friend. How obtuse are you?[/quote]
