My question at the time was concerning attachment and if then it was somehow un-buddhist to be attached to my partner whom I love very much or for that matter anyone you love deeply?

Hi EinsteinsGhost,
Attachment can be egotistical at one extreme and unconditional at the other. I guess dharma shunts us from the egotistical end across to the unconditional end. I'm married with kids and I don't feel that Buddhism compromises my love for my family. If it did, I'd dump it.
