Wife OR WifeY.


I don't like the term wifey. I mean what do YOU define as 'WIFEY'? I got some feedback from a few guys about what they define as 'wifey', some are a bit silly, some are typical, some are just predictable. These are a few definitions I got:
1. A wifey has to be able to cook, clean, wash dishes and wash my boxers. They must also get on their knees when they are speaking to me... ¬_¬

2. A wifey is my Empress to perfection... (doesn't really explain much does it)

3. A song by Lloyd... 0_o

4. It changes with age, and life changes so the type of girls your friends are going for and what point you are at in your life. Most wifeYs don't get guys until they are around 22 and mostly guys who are interested are over 25 as they want to settle down. I prefer the term 'long term partner'... (Okay)

5. Depends on the guy, but simply put, someone you can spend the rest of your life with... (Isn't that a wife?)

6. A wifey is someone who is respectful, beautiful, cooks, but is also a freak in the bedroom... (typical)

So yeah, I dunno which one applies to you, but to be honest, I didn't quite agree with any of the responses that I got. I think the term wifey is a bit confused for some people. It's confused, because people do not actually think;is being a wifeY PERMANENT or TEMPORARY? 'Wifey' is thrown about like it's a MAJOR title to collect and to be quite frank, in my opinion it isn't. I was curious as to what Urban Dictionary said about this term and it defined it as: ' REAL Lady, Not your only but your favourite, different from them hood rat chicks.'
Erm...so you see I pointed out the 'not your only, but your favourite', this shows me that 'wifey' is honestly TEMPORARY.

When young people get into relationships, not many of them last, maybe because of distance or unfaithfulness or lack of interest or effort and in these relationships, the girl is usually titled 'wifey'. I can understand that guys may use the term 'wifey', to show that this girl is 'special', treated differently from all the rest. I think guys get excited by the term wifey, because they see a girl they are attracted to, make it their mission to get with them and because they are at their peak of happiness, they throw out that name 'wifey', but to be real some of these relationships don't even last...when you're young, you pretty much go in and out of relationships, mess about, ain't serious and go through numerous types of commitments which are short-term. Wifey is short-term. Young people tend to start getting serious, probably around University times or after finishing their degree and so now they know it's that time to find a job, a house and to settle down with, like a friend of mine said 'long-term partner'.

But now that you're grown and ready to settle down, well on the verge, doesn't it seem a bit silly to use the term 'wifey' when you've found one you potentially want to settle down with? The person you eventually find to settle down with and marry is the person you will call your WIFE. I'd rather have the title WIFE rather than wifey. So rather than use the term wifey, if you are not sure whether that girl is the one you'll settle with, don't get the girl excited by calling her 'wifey', I believe 'girlfriend' is more appropriate. It is more specific as to what the status of the girl is in your life. Wifey just seems confused. I think the Y in wifey stands for 'young' and we are not young forever!

The WIFE is your long-term partner, the one you plan on settling down with, the one you eventually plan on having kids with. The first definition I showed you from someone I know, wants a wifey to cook, clean and wash his boxers...you're going to get that poor girl to wash your boxers and then drop her like it's hot? Being a wife, the woman should cater to all her husbands needs and vise versa, at least the woman is secure in her MARRIAGE and her vows did say 'for better, for worse', so washing boxers shouldn't be a problem, but as a wifey, if you don't plan on being with the girl for the rest of your life, wash your own boxers!

I'm just saying that girls shouldn't get excited being called wifey. Wifey is temporary, Wife is permanent (or should be!)Only accept that your worth being WIFE material. Don't settle for temporary. :)
