Those who are married or in a long term relationship

Can you survive and do well enough without your partner?Would losing them affect how well you will function?

I’m sure I could handle it, always have, before Phil.

we thought we’d break up a couple different times,
but yeah, we both need each other, for many reasons.

I remember those days. I had two babies at one time.

my ex used to fall asleep feeding my son, and my son would
then fall asleep with a bottle of breast milk in his mouth.

it used to make me so mad. I had to feed my daughter.
it’s hard, cuz he was working as a cook in restaurant here.

hard to adjust to getting very little sleep.

well, things change dramically after having a baby.

you should try to make peace, seems you’re a family now.

If you aren’t independent and can’t survive without your partner, you shouldn’t be with someone and even to have a child to begin with anyway

I’ve had five babies, all c section and one baby was born three months early. I understand how tough it is. Just know, that it is rough. But if you can support each other through this difficult, that it will get better.

we get into the pettiness too,
like
“These are mostly all your dishes, so you can clean the kitchen.”
and
“Well I bought this for you, you didn’t”
and
“Well she’s Your dog.”

if we do fight though more seriously, we both get over it rather quickly. We don’t walk around on egg shells, and I would never deny him sex.

If I didn’t have my husband, I’d be homeless. I can’t work, anymore, since June. I depend on him for a home, a car, food, my meds and medical devices…

I hate to admit that I am so dependent… but it’s the truth.

I’m dependent on my husband. I don’t know what I would do without him. I don’t work so I rely on him for everything.

Everyone has a hard time when a new baby is is keeping you up all night. All babies need tons of attention and it’s perfectly normal to be overwhelmed. Just try not to argue and try to help as much as you’re able
