I ask this because everyone has thier own term, but if you are in a longterm relationship, marriage, what do you call the person your are with?
Personally I prefer "husband", to me none of the other terms really describe the relationship and some even demean it in my opinion. I can't stand "partner" and "life partner" - we are not in business together. Significant Other - other what?? Boyfriend - high school was 25 years ago, please! Other Half - Better Half? Half of me is missing? The other person is better than me?? no. Same Sex Spouse, well it is correct but too long to say, lol!
