if such a question comes to your mind , you certainly are directly concerned . a psychiatrist might be useful to solve your deep problem

@Andy ******

an australian man married one of my daughter , I can assure you he never called her THE wife . I'm happy he knew the meaning of words and never hided behind a so called cultural norm , because the norm in his culture is to use the word for what they mean ,

but I understand some individual cultural norm might be " I'm gross " some people will prefer to be subtil and delicate even when Australian

@Andy ******

sorry people who've been around for decades know the cultural norms in different countries

it would be very interesting to know in which country or area it is a cultural norm to name , wife ,ladies , girlfriends with the same words that are used for animal, plants and objects .

so ladies can be aware also

@Ruth ******

thanks so much to appreciate my comment . anybody can choose the words he uses . and the choice of words shows who you really are ! and in this case who chooses

" me and THE wife " instead of

MY sweetheart , or my darling and me or more simple for gross people :me and my wife just shows who they are and , trying to hide behind a local culture and pretend whatever , is just take the reader for an idiot who've never been anywhere . it happens that people in this group have been around for a few decades , and know the difference between a rag and a towel .....

and yes I've seen the comment of this disgusting Anthony , makes you feel like throwing up ..

I'm always so shocked when guys talk about : THE wife !!!

in civilised cultures and languages we talk about the dog , the house , the flower the tree . .

I myself respect and love MY wife too much , to mention her as "THE wife"

really cheap
