This proves how much society has changed

I was watching an old show the other night like made in late 70s. Anyway it has a single dad that was rummered that he was getting married. His dd was very upset and hid from him. I he found her and explained that the love he has for will never change but no matter what he will love her. Then he asked her if she had a bf would she still love him. She looked at him and said oh 2 types of love. And they hug.

My point is that it was so much different then the view compared to today. They had it right then and now it's so screwed up. The idea is that if daddy is not single then he is turning his back on his kids. Makes me sick

I agree. I was watching the movie "It's Complicated" with Meryl Streep in it the other day and I had that same unsettling feeling in the pit of my stomach because watching and seeing the bm and XH get all cozy and secretive and actually have a full blown affair really did bother me!

I know that my BF loathes bm and doesnt even want to talk to her or see her EVER and I know he would never go back to her after everything that transpired between them BUT the insecure, side of me kicked in and got scared and I had that what if feeling...it is truly frightening to think that my BF that I love sooo much could/would ever love or go back to the very woman that destroyed and still destroys his life!!! :jawdrop:

That is true. However it's

That is true. However it's still the way the book handle it such as it can be a neg. Or a positive. Example in my op the dad asked his child if she had a bf would she still love him? Her answer she understood that she could have a bf and still love her dad just as he could have a wife or gf and still love his dd as it is 2 types of love. My point is that society has changed that view for kids so much so that we as parents think we have to always put our kids before our spouses in order for our kids to feel the love of their parents. Instead of letting kids know that it's a different love and healthy for us as adults to have a relationship like they will one day.
