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.
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.
I hate the word 'partner' so much.
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.
