Better than when your kids were born?

Don't tell the mrs but I think it was.

A rag mate asked me yesterday and straight away I said yes because you don't get that massive release of joy when your kids get born. You know it's going to happen.

Don't get me wrong in terms of being happy I would actually put it on par with the kids being born. But as an event Sunday 13th May 2012 takes it.

Anyone else feel like this or am I a bad person?
 
Re: Better than when your kids were born

No I agree, I put it down to this, the birth of your kids is wonderful, but while people are happy for you the group of people that itsd special to is pretty limited. On Sunday you are sharing a day with 1,000s of other people all of whom will remember it for their lifetime.
 
I dont have kids so I'm speaking in ignorance here but I should imagine fatherhood is a much more profound experience overall. But when the times comes to bring a Toma Jr into this world if I react like I did on Sunday I'd be kicked out of the maternity ward and probably sectioned.
Never before and never again since will I have that instant outpouring of pure uncontained ecstasy.
 
Also its not like you've spent 9 months wondering if a baby is going to come out whilst your mates all say it cant be because your impotent. Then the doctor says sorry its only a hamster and its a only got three legs and then whilst being televised live around the world your wife births a fully grown Brad Pitt. Even then it wouldn't be as good because youve got to feed the bastard for the next 20 years.

Anyway you get my point.
 
The main difference being that my wife went through all the fucking agony when my boys were born. The pain of the first 91 minutes on Sunday was, I imagine, akin to the breech delivery of pumpkin on steroids.
 
when my kids were born the sense of relief that they'd got here without anything bad happening to them or my wife was immense (especially with the first as there was complications) on Sunday i felt the same relief at the final whistle but Tbh the sense of euthoria that i felt after the relief was like nothing I've felt before...and when my kids were born i didn't have 7 of my best mates sat next to me who'd shared the previous 25 years with me. It was completely different!
 
No; two differnt kinds of euphoria. I would fight for City, but I would die for my kids.

Still on cloud 9 by the way
