I'm not a player! I'm the girlfriend type! I always have girlfriends.
I don't want to be defined as someone's girlfriend.
I've always felt it's ridiculous to say, of any of the females in my life: You're my friend, you're my wife, you're my girlfriend, you're my co-worker. This is your box, and you're not allowed to stray outside of it.
I hate the word 'partner' so much.
A lady is nothing very specific. One man's lady is another man's woman; sometimes, one man's lady is another man's wife. Definitions overlap but they almost never coincide.
People label themselves husbands, wives, moms, sisters, and friends before they label themselves Democrats or Republicans.
I'm surprised by the fact that I like the word 'husband.' I thought I would hate it.
I don't think every relationship needs to be defined.
To say she was my girlfriend was absurd: no one the wrong side of thirty has a girlfriend… I suppose I ought to have realize it’s ominous that forty thousand years of human language had failed to produce a word for our relationship.
