Why can't you just say husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/partner/lover/whatever-else-they-may-be?

Are you and your partner so insecure in your relationship that you need to make each other feel significant by literally adding the word "significant" to your titles?

Although it's not nearly as bad as "my other half". But I'd rather not get started on that one.

I thought only gay and lesbian people used the term.

I thought only gay and lesbian people used the term.

Actually, they like using the term life partner, even though many of their relationships are not for life.

[blunomore]

Of course.

I was referring to the expression 'life partner' which is more often used by gay people, not straight ones.

 

[I.am.Sam]
