The difference between swap with or swap for
Please tell me the difference between swap with and swap for.
I could not make out an explanation which is on a book.
I hope you'd give me some concrete examples.
There was an example sentence on the book like this.
1. I wouldn't swap my husband with anyone else.
2. I wouldn't swap my husband for anyone else.
Thank you for your help.

"swap for" usually refers to the things being traded. Example: I swapped two dollars for one pound.
"swap with" usually refers to the persons who are trading. Example: I swapped shirts with my sister"
