I believe that there is no one person who can be everything to another person.

I believe that a person needs several people in their lives to be there for them.

Why are people so selfish in thinking that they can and should be the only person in someone's life?

In every marriage or relationship there are three people. There is Me and You and Us.
My husband and I had a good marriage because we each had friends and hobbies outside of the marriage. That gave us something to bring home to each other. It worked well. Only his death separated us.

Well good questions Penny. I think that if your are lucky like with my parents you have that one person in your life who for the most part has completed you. That they are your soul mate. I see my parents an how well they get along and complement each other and that they are always there for one another but they also have other people in there lives to share things with. You are right you need others in your life for various reasons. Friends and family to chat with and be a big part of your life also. I believe that you need other perspectives on things so you need other people in your lives to have that. YOu need more than one person to share everything with or you will both eventually explode!

People are selfish when they think they should be the only one in your life, well maybe selfish is the wrong word. Controlling and insecure. Sometimes I think looking back on a past relationship I realize that he wanted to be that for me because he knew if I had alot of support from family and friends I would have gotten out alot sooner than I did.

People who refuse to let others into someone else's life, a controlling husband for example, has issues ranging from jealousy to low self-esteem possibly relating back to their childhood. People on both ends of this situation, as well as any children exposed to this, needs professional intervention to understand that it is both an unacceptable and unhealthy situation.

I agree, even if you are married you need female friends, and male friends as well, as long as they are just friends, I don't believe in being unfaithful for any reason!! It helps to balance things out to have people that fill different kinds of needs, like having a female confidante, things that maybe your partner is not interested in!!

Penny me dear, unlike me ,lots don't realise how insignifant they are in the big picture of life.
More folks need to realise they are not as important as they think.

I agree with you. No man is an island unto himself. We are all diffrent, with different qualities , and different points of view. We are not ALL there is to be, with everything to offer.

Sounds like your referring to a control freak husband. They are insecure individuals and lack self esteem.

It is found focused in the teaching's pf Zeus, of Jesus, called monogamy. It is not scriptural, however.
