AYRT—this reply is my second of two comments on this secret. I don’t think it’s a bad thing to love your spouse a lot, but putting all your emotional eggs in one basket is really risky. What happens if you outlive them? What if they have or make a best friend they love with the same, but non-romantic/sexual, intensity with which they love you?

Also, your initial comment was incredibly dismissive of non-romantic relationships to the point of being insulting, and while it sucks that at least one person compared your situation to abuse, “maybe someday you’ll have a loving relationship with your spouse” is also super insulting; you have no way of knowing if they do already.

Also, despite sucking at making friends and romantic relationships both, the idea that love is a limited resource to be conserved or hoarded or only shared with one person creeps me out.

It's also putting a very unfair burden on the spouse because they have to be your Emotional Support 24/7 since you don't have anyone else to go to for emotional support. You're totally dependent on them for all of your emotional needs and that really isn't fair to them. They deserve the right and the ability to have an emotional life outside of you.

AYRT—I agree, but a couple people made that point already. I’m actually kind of weirded out by the original comment, up until then, no one had mentioned spouses at all and it just seemed random.
