Should you ever compare the love for you mother to that of your wife/husband??

Love from your mom it`s the strongest . That can`t be compared with anything . Love of your wife / husband it`s next in the top because with him / her you will live your life if you want and if you feel so . That person will be with you whenever you need it and will make anything to have a better life . That person will remain the most important after your kids when they will come , and you parents will not be with you .

I do not agree with you... at all. In the Bible, it clearly states that after you become married, though your love for your mother of father should not diminish... you shall "cling to your husband/wife". Perceiving to love your parents so-called MORE than you love your spouse is ridiculous. I go through this with my husband constantly and I can say that it puts a wedge in our marriage... I would be a lot closer to him if it weren't for her. I feel that if your spouse feels that way about you... maybe it isn't true love after all.. because it does not fit the criteria that the Bible states. Something to think about.... Because even though our parents raised us in this world and we should love them wholeheartedly.. they are not going to be around forever. So... putting your spouse on the backburner for your parents.... will do nothing but create problems in the future. That's my take on it. And most CHRISTIAN and GOD-FEARING individuals... feel the same.

I never said to eliminate her out of your life or to stop loving her or any of that. I am simply stating that once you become married.. your wife becomes your IMMEDIATE family.. so there should be no thoughts of "if this doesn't work out" or any of that because if you are to become married and be then on out considered family, the trust that family is supposed to have is to be entrusted in that spouse. The issue is not in whether you see your mother or not.. but in what type of relationship that a husband establishes with his wife and yet maintains with his mother so that it does not conflict one relationship or the other in a negative type of way.

I agree with delkar on this one because tho's 2 things aint even on the same level.You as in mrs.callands22 said we would be alot closer if it wasnt for her but even if shes not around all the time the love isnt going to change so i dont see your point.God does say take care of your home before you help anyone else but that doesnt mean put your mother on the back burner either after you get married because sometimes marriage dont work but your family still going to be there either way and thats all im going to say
