I can't be the only one that internally rolls my eyes when people refer to their significant other as a fiance/fiancee, right?

Unless you have a date set and it's soon, don't try to church up your situation.

Mm, I think you actually may be the only one.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Guess you're right, oh well. c/unpopular opinion for me.

I think it's a vestige from my time in the military and how many stripper fiancees my soldiers had.

Oof, you're the only one. As long as no one is playing grab ass at the roller coaster line, I think we're good.

Getting angry or complaining about how someone calls their significant other and gatekeeping when it can be used is something they should've learnt to get over a long time ago.

Hey now, there's nothing wrong with grabbing your partner's ass in public every once in a while.

You'd hate me then. I'm not even married nor engaged to my wife. We just call each other that because it feels nice.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's somehow much better in my mind. Assuming you don't do it with every tinder date that lets you get your dick wet.

[–] Sombyr@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

I wouldn't know. My wife's the only person I've ever dated. Probably wouldn't just do that with random dates though. My wife and I knew eachother for a while before we were dating and got close even before then. That's why I was comfortable calling her my wife. I was confident it'd last. Even then it wasn't until a while in the relationship that we started doing it.

Plus we'd been getting mistaken for a married couple quite a lot, so I figured why not just act like one? Takes off the pressure to actually get married too early, too. After all, what's there to gain that we can't gain without it?

I think fiance, wife, and husband all sound bad. I call my partner my partner, because she's my life partner. Really it's a better description in my opinion. Being a wife or husband means absolutely nothing, especially given most end rather quickly

Woah how did you get your username like that?

You can change your display name on your instance settings.

But how do you get the bold text?

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Oh! Lol. I used a text to emoji translator.
