Good Father Without Being A Good Husband, How Possible? by bmoney9ja(m): 8:06pm On Jun 16, 2015
today when my neighbor's kids came to my apartment, i carried the youngest one as she rested on my shoulder, she slept off. I thought within myself that i would make a good daddy due to the way I feel around kids.

At that point, I started wondering how possible is it for me to be a good father without being a good husband due to my poor level of commitment in my past relationships.

I know I go extra miles when it comes to caring and giving attention to kids but doing that to women especially the ones have had something with, I find it very hard with time.

any suggestions on how to deal with that is welcomed.

Stop being a playa undecided
The fact that you love kids and love being around them does not automatically prove that you'll be a good father... Being a good father is beyond feeling good around kids, its interconnected with being a good husband because I don't know how you'll be good to your children if you're bad to their mother...hope I made sense

Seriously? Being a good father has nothing to do with being a good spouse. The same way being a good mother has nothing to do with being a good wife. The love one has for one's kids can't be compared with anything( except for an unortunate few) and IMO is independent of ones love for his spouse. My two cents. Howeva, I feel that every child should grow up in a loving home and being a good father means ensuring ur a good husband even if its js 2 mk ur kid happy.

You do. Are u in doubt?

The gal I loved deeply turned out to be 'wrong' and confused. She's set having my own kids back:@sad

This is why sometimes I don't blame playas - male or female!

@bmoney9ja
mehn, I'm pretty cool with kids too. Can't wait to have mine preferrably all boys.

You already know you won't make a good husband even before you're married? If you can love your kids, why can't you show same to their mum?? I pity whoever is going to settle down with you. .

If you know you can't commit in a relationship just as you've said, please don't get married cos marriage is about commitment.. Save a woman a life of misery biko..

d problem is, i give my all at d initial stage but after a while i ll start thinking abt why am into the relationship and before i know it..I lose interest even when sex isnt involved.
I really wish I have the zeal of commitment. not dat i never wish to be a good husband mbok
