If you and your partner were to separate, would it hurt more to lose your hopes for the future or the daily companionship you now share?
If we didn’t have children together, I would probably say that it would hurt a bit more to lose the daily companionship. I would be heartbroken, yes, but I could always pick up the pieces and try to move on. But with children? It’s a whole new ball game. I would definitely be more hurt and actually devastated to lose my hopes for the future of us, as a family. I would be hurting for my children, who would lose their father, in a sense, and not have an “intact” family.
Thankfully, though we do argue and squabble as most people do, we have good communication, we talk, and we can almost always work out our differences and come to an agreement or compromise, even if the ultimate solution is to agree to disagree, or turn a blind eye in the case of petty or insignificant things.
