'Other Half'

The majority of people refer to their partner/hubby/wife etc, as their 'Other Half'.

I think I'm an odd ball, as I refer to my son as my other half, I think its because he's the only man in my life and he's literally half of me.

Am I strange? Should the term OH be used for partners only?

I look forward to hearing your _iews and opinions

I never liked being referred to as the other half when I had a partner. Always made me feel like half a person.

To me it always seems strange when people refer to someone they are dating as OH to be OH is for someone your married to or live with. I sometimes refer to jay as my boyfriend but dont like to, i always refer to him as Jay as thats his name. Must admit i refer to my son as my baby but thats mostly a piss take as hes 22

If I had a relationship with a guy, he has always just been my 'Fella'!!!

Suppose we all use different terms x

I don't like or use the term but in my experience it is for husband or wife or partner who lives as .....

If i'm honest ( and i am ) it's very unusual to hear it used for a son.

If im brutally honest ( which I seldom am ) it's bloody weird. He's your son and you wouldn't call him other names that confuse him with a husband. He's really not your other half.

lol, good question, but probably not.

I dont use the term OH towards him or anything, its just me being weird as he really is half of me.

I'm a strange person Granny!
