Hard to say, but I suppose it would be my friend. I'm pretty much solo though.

Incredible lack of “offspring” on the list.




That being said, the relationship you have with yourself is the most important you’ll ever have. It’s the foundation on which you build every other relationship, and if you don’t constantly work on your relationship with yourself you can’t be the best person possible for all the others in your life. You are also more likely to develop relationships from a selfish perspective(ie what does this person offer to my life), whereas if you optimize the relationship to yourself all others can be built on actual love and wanting what’s best for others else regardless of whether or not it’s the best for you.

My wife. No kids, so she only has competition with the rest of my family

She’s pretty incredible and I’m lucky I was able to get her to marry me. Hard worker, outstanding personality, and there’s no one else that I could spend every minute of every day with and be as happy.

Srsly. Mgtow’s are really missing out, but I think that it’s more a reflection of what kind of person they are

My doggo.

Wife is cool
Parents are on my last nerve and stress me the fuk out
Friends are great...most live far away and I only see them a couple times/year
Sister is alright....makes life decisions I don't agree with and stresses me out, but I'm always there for her

Come to think of it....I should probably start talking to a Therapist.

My kids are always unconditional love, which is always amazing. Mornings they love coming into my bed and just hanging out talking about dreams, etc. They love doing things like making coffee and getting their own breakfast, good to build independence.

My girlfriend is also amazing, super positive and chill to be around.

I have one friend that's never judgemental and we tell each other the most fuked up chit, everyone needs a friend like this srs I got extremely lucky

If not for that, I wouldn't have anyone, most of my relationships are pretty surface lvl (mostly my fault because I don't open up much)

My wife is the best.

We have been together almost 10 years, grown together, romped around the world together, had so many experiences and phases (good and bad), and she's giving birth to our first child next year.

And still, today, her waking me up with that smile and a cup of coffee - that *moment*. I'm blessed.

Wife is #1. I have a fantastic relationship with my parents, too. They are both amazing, and I have a good high school buddy that I know would do anything for me. My kids are great. We are still in the parent-child phase with me as the benevolent dictator. The hope for them is that as they grow into adults the relationship will change into more of a mentoring role, but that we will remain close.

I'm close with pretty much everyone in my life. But, to answer your question, probably my wife. Your spouse is the person you spend most time with and become closest with, after all.

How's your relationship with your cow?

One of my longterm goals is to get a cow and form a friendship with it (dead fkn srs). They seem like animals capable of great compassion.

Husband for me. Always the best person to just be with.

You’re right should’ve added grown up kids to it but that will always be a different type of relationship. Love the benevolent dictator line farmer

As for cows, they are scary and stare. Would not befriend

There's no option for a child, although I know that not many on here have kids. After a few rough teen years I'm close with my daughter again.

Cows love me, lol.

The picture is from a few years ago. Each year in the fall we always feed the cows in our pasture with extra apples that fall off my parents' apple trees. The cows get conditioned to it and come running when they see us out gathering apples. My sister was visiting with her kids and one of her boys was trying to feed an apple to a cow but would get nervous and drop it before the cow could get ahold of it. I wanted to show him there was nothing to worry about so I told him, "watch this", and put an apple in my mouth. Somebody had a camera handy. Cows are pretty friendly if they've been around people and treated gently. Just a warning, they do have bad breath.

ETA: And watch out for their tongues, they are super long. The offside of my face was covered in cow slobber.

I've interacted with cows at farms and rescue events and stuff like that before. I remember the breath and that deceptively long tongue. I'm slowly working my way towards a laid back hobby farm lifestyle. I've been raising hens for a few years now and have socialized them nicely. The other day I had someone come work on my property and he was amazed that the hens just came up to him, let themselves be pet, ate out of his hand. This dude was like 40 years old and looked like an excited boy kneeling down feeding friendly chickens lol. Twinkle in his eye, big smile plastered on his face.

It's probably hard to rank a soul mate vs great kids, no?

I mean at the end of the day if we're blessed enough to have multiple positive relationships, it probably reflects in our general approach to life.
