I dislike the word--------**-Improved,** ,,,,,,,,,,,,as if it was the very very best you could get in the first place how can you improve it,!!

I hate the word select instead of chose. I called my partner partner even though i hate the word but confessing all i can't always get my mouth around the word fiance and he's neither my husband nor husband to be and it sounds silly for me(over 25) to call him my boyfriend!

I use 'partner' because I'm not married to him, so I can't call him 'husband'. Though on here he's my OH lol Formally though, I have to use that term.

I hate the term 'girlies' One woman in our office, when emailing us all will start with, Hi Girlies!

I think Partner is used for older people as boy and girlfriend sounds daft when you are older and no longer a boy or girl. My o.h. is not my fiance or my husband.


I hate it when people swear in a sentence for no reason, ie. not angry or whatever, use it as a matter of course. It's awful.

I`ll tell you a story about a pan. When we were first married OH was out of work . I left instructions for spag .bolognaise. When I came the vegs were frying in frying pan and mince cooking in a pot. He read the instructions and it said fry vegs , meaning brown them !!!

I hate fiance wouldn't call him my husband even if he was.

What about hand baked? How do they do that then?

Pan-fried.
How else can you fry, except in a pan??

"Partner" is my pet hate.........why dont they use wife/husband fiancee?

partner to me implies something that is not permanent......like dancing partners......partner in a card school......
