I thought one's spouse is one's husband / wife, and one's husband / wife is married to you, by definition.


Yeah I think you're typically right. I guess I interchange partner with spouse in my mind because of the whole recognition of de facto couples here in Australia and the whole civil union bit.


Thanks, I didn't know about de facto couples.
