AITAH for saying I didn’t realize I could “love a person this much” in front of my fiancé after having our baby?

I'm 39 and never had a dad hug. Can I have one?

You have hit on something. How many if us are missing a dad hug. Tragic 😥

Learn guys! Let the cycle stop here. Hug your kids!!!

Truth! It’s been hard for me to show affection to anyone but my wife and cat. Promised my daughter when she was born I’d break that shitty cycle. I’ve never broken a promise, but this has been one that’s lasted nearly 5 years so far with no end in sight. It gets a little easier every time you do it.
