Would you like to be worshiped by your spouse? Would you like your spouse to worshiped you? Would you like to worship your spouse?

I think you meant who to be would. I'll answer. I do not want to be worshipped and neither does my husband, however we both want respect, and more than just respect, love and sooo much more. I know that i think of husband as if he is the best in the world and I know that he views me in a similar way. I am more attached so I mention to him more and physically show it more than my husband but he emotionally goes beyond what i necessary for me. I think that in a marriage no one should worship each other just put the other person first because that other person is really apart of you. I can't explain it, but my husband goes out of his way to make sure i'm happy, comfortable, etc and i try the same for him (but usually he is better
 - men are just so much more loving)

QUOTE Would you like to be worshiped by your spouse? Would you like your spouse to worshiped you? Would you like to worship your spouse? Pampered, on occasion. Worshiped? No way. A relationships based on pedestalizing the partner encounters a crash of disillusionment when this person turns out to be human after all. |

No, I think it's silly.

Depending on the definition, yes, yes, and no - respectively. -------------------- QUOTE (err) To me the only constructive thing to come out of the "OTD phenomenon" is that most of them are really ignorant or have primitive ideas about Judaism, so if people were more introspective we could reflect on the shoddy state of the schools and what kids are learning |

Means when I turn human and stamp my little foot and throw a wobbly, it doesn't look so good for me as a deity. -------------------- "Mommy, is this the house where we are allowed to swing on the chairs, or the house where we're not allowed to swing on the chairs?"

I don't think one spouse worshipping the other makes for a healthy relationship.
