A really good kinda weird! I was fumbling with fiance and husband for a few weeks but it seems like I'm getting it straight lately. It still catches my ear everytime I say it...and I LOVE it!

You should have heard me on our HM after a few cocktails....I'd say the word any chance I could get!

I feel like I'm lying - that and when I have to say my new last name.

Same here - I'm slowly getting used to it. However I've only heard DH call me his 'wife' once since we've been married. He still calls me his girlfriend

I got used to saying husband pretty quickly. DH on the other hand- not so much.
The other day he was leaving a message for someone and said 'you can call my fiancee's number' - I yelled WIFE!

Re: saying 'my husband' still sounds weird

i guess i just rarely ever say 'husband' ... i don't like saying it cause it just sounds so stupid to me

(not the being married part ... just the title of husband / wife)

Re: saying 'my husband' still sounds weird

I feel like people look startled when I say 'husband' because I am so young (and I think I look younger than I actually am...or so I've been told).

I did this last week! A huge pause between my first and last name...that client must have thought there was something wrong with me!

Re: saying 'my husband' still sounds weird

when we are in our apt I will call out to him and say 'hubby' instead of his actual name. That feels totally normal. But it still sounds a little off when I speak about him or refer to him as my husband to other people.

Re: saying 'my husband' still sounds weird

Nope..not anymore..but I would hope not after almost a year lol but I have to admit that it did take a while to get used to!

Re: saying 'my husband' still sounds weird

Suprisingly, no! It rolls right off of my tongue! However, at first yes it was. Saying my last name sometimes gets me. Probably cuz I still sign my maiden name at work

I'm soooooo lazy to change my professional licenses!
