What does it mean to make your spouse your first priority?

Before other family and friends, etc.? How would you describe that when explaining to someonewhat that would entail and why a chosen family (spouse and children) are first priorities in your life and why they aren't even with other family and friends, but are actually more important?





How would you debate this when the other person sees it that family and friends are just as important as a spouse?What does it mean to make your spouse your first priority?
You chose your spouse to be your family and best friend (at least that is the theory.) They are the only ones who have vowed to be at your side for life (again, in theory. we all know this is the case about half of the time.)





So, it is about the choice that your spouse and you have made to elect to be committed to each other. That is the differance.What does it mean to make your spouse your first priority?
All things need balance and in that sense there is some degree of equality amongst family and friends, BUT, closer to home you have your immediate family (ie husband). So when it comes to the laws of proximity, he is your first priority. It's a matter of who you are planning to live the rest of your life with. At it's worst, it's a juggling act, but you will always come back to your center, with your husband.





We are all important to our families, just more so with our partner.
Humm, good one, How's this.


When you where dating %26amp; getting to know each other, didn't you feel special - needed - wanted -happy with yourself - %26amp; with your special friend / at least at the top of the others ( most important) list,,,


Isn't that how you fell in love,,,,


Why should it go away as soon as you say ('; I do';) does that mean


(he or you) doesn't mean any more or your feelings don';t matter or are any less important then they where back then???
the spouse is first on the totem pole,because they are your new family,ADAM AND EVE,not Adam and Eve and everone else.you are supposed to be partners,bestfriends and a team in this game of life.
If they insult my spouse, I have no problem ripping them a new asshole. Any questions?
