Saying that your partner is *yours* just sounds possesive and not romantic at all, amirite?

You share friends, not partners. That's why your friends arent YOURS, but your partner is.

My wife is mine. She belongs to me. And I belong to her. I am hers. We made a commitment and threw a party to celebrate that fact. Outside of my kids, she is the most important person to me in the world. If that's not for you, cool.

My husband is mine and I am his. It's incredibly romantic to belong with someone like that🤷‍♀️

why is a partner any different with that? Because when I say that my fiance is "mine" the context is "She is in a consensual and committed relationship with me and our mutual understanding is that we are going to only share certain levels of intimacy with each other." It's easier to say "she's mine" than to say all of that every time I want to communicate that idea to someone else.

I LOVE being owned by my boyfriend. I'm 100% his & that is very romantic to me. I even have a t shirt & panties that read PROPERTY OF HENRY. <3

This is how I feel too. If any of my previous partners said it though I'd be annoyed, but when my current partner says it it makes me melt.

Because my friends can be friends with whoever else they want to be friends with. My boyfriend cannot be boyfriends to whoever else he wants to be boyfriend with, and if he did want that, I would not want him. The draw of a relationship to me is that we are now 2 people who only want and love each other. I mean he's mine to love and to touch and come home to. Not that he is a thing belongs to me. All that said, some people definitely do say their SO is theirs and mean their SO is a thing that belongs to them.

isn't it mostly people who are either very young or are in their first relationship ever who likes stuff like that? maybe i'm wrong. not like i think people outside those categories have never used such possessive terms.
