I heard someone say the other day that they thought it was sexier to call someone their fiance instead of their husband or wife.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It has not been an easy cross to bear. It has caused considerable confusion. My husband constantly complained about the awkwardness of being married to a woman whom he called Sister.
The vast majority of women who marry still take their husband's name. And I'm not vilifying that behavior! But that's a pattern where women are truly still taking on their husbands' identities.
I'm surprised by the fact that I like the word 'husband.' I thought I would hate it.
'Fiancee' is a very fun word to say, because I never thought I would have a fiancee or be a fiancee. Sometimes when I would introduce myself and say, 'This is my girlfriend Melanie,' it wasn't always clear what I meant. Now I get to say, 'This is my fiancee Melanie.'
Married people should not be quick to hear what is said by either when in ill humor.
It seems a bit weird to call someone your girlfriend when you have a child.
Women who marry early are often overly enamored of the kind of man who looks great in wedding pictures and passes the maid of honor his telephone number.
This idea that we should be best friends with our partner of the opposite gender leads toward tremendous frustration. Did you ever notice that while men often refer to their wives as best friends, women usually refer to another woman in that way?
After being married, hearing 'You're hot!' from a total stranger means a hundred times more than hearing it from your husband.
Many marriages would be better if the husband and the wife clearly understood that they are on the same side.
