I don’t know about anyone else, but I started doing it because I want to destroy Western culture.
I didn’t click the link.

Mine and I are getting married this week and we were both excited to see “spouse” as an option on the documents.
We are now spouse and spouse.
I mean I get it, there’s an age at which referring to someone as your boyfriend or girlfriend feels a little lame.
Honestly I use partner or spouse mostly because I can’t remember if fiance or fiancee is correct and it won’t stick in my head properly. Calling her my girlfriend makes her feel “demoted” or something. (I’m sure that’s just her joking around. Partner doesn’t dictate what stage or if government paperwork has been filed.
I can’t remember if fiance or fiancee is correct
Fiancé is male, fiancée is female.
Do you remember the alt key for the accented e or do you type it some other way?
Dedicated key on an azerty keyboard on tablet/laptop, or switching back to French setting on the phone. If weren’t French I woudn’t bother searching for it every time.
I’m a millennial and I’ve always referred to my partner as such. Boyfriend and girlfriend always seemed so weirdly juvenile, and it’s interesting to leave things ambiguous for people who are immediately expecting to categorise you.
I call my wife, “Comrade.”
Well, a married household is basically a commune.
That’s Our wife, Comrade
I do it for two reasons: partly because it’s fuck all business to anyone else (within reason) what the status of my relationship is.
Mainly though, because it generally messes with folk because they don’t understand what it means, and feel compelled to ask silly questions about it.
