I've seen a lot of references to moms being your best friend... and the same for husband/boyfriend/girlfriend/wives.
So I thought I'd ask who is your best friend! Or to narrow the definition a bit... who are you closer to emotionally: your mom or your SO?

My husband, I think. I can complain and cry about things to my husband that I know my mother wouldn't understand without being critical or judgmental. I think also because DH is a little bit more open-minded.

My husband. He hears about all my emotional drama! He is very good at coming up with solutions and fixing my 'problems'.

Closer to my husband! I am close to my mom but I don't tell her everything.

Husband! I tell both just about the same "amount" of everything but DH is definitely the one that I feel gets me the most. If there's only one person I'm allowed to tell its gonna be DH.

DH by a landslide, but that's also cause my mother and I are estranged.

DH, although I'm close with my mom...just not in that way as much. I'm more open with DH.

Hubs! No contest. He is the only person I have ever felt safe enough with to really open up to. (lovely sentence construction!)

I'd say both, but in different ways. There are things I would never tell my mother but there are also things I'd tell her that I know DH wouldn't care about.
I value them both and think they're both really important in my life. I don't think I'm closer to one than the other.

My husband, without a doubt. I love my mom, but I definitely don't share everything with her.

My DW, not that it is a hard competition. I know that even if I was close to my mom my DW would still take the lead. I know this because she is my all around BF.

Husband. I love my mom and we are very close, but at the risk of sounding super cheesey, DH is my partner in life.
It's a closer contest between DH and my big sister, but DH still wins. That was actually a weird one to realize.

Husband. I've always been close with my mom, but dh is at another level. I can say anything to him, no need to filter.

Dan is my all-time leading scorer bestie, and my mom is a close second. I would tell them both anything, but there's an intimacy with hubs that I just don't share with anyone else.

Husband, but I do talk to my mom about things I don't with him. Not because they are dark secrets, just because men usually don't want to talk for hours on end

My husband. We are just...best friends. But my mom is a close second....I would say I love them both so so much! Equally but differently.
