Re: Heather Maltman - Bachelor Australia - Season 3 - Fan Forum - Thread #2
It seems that Heather meant partner as a part of a couple in a relationship, just as she said when she met Sam?
That being said, Heather has clarified that she was saying Sam was her partner on the show, not in real life/post-show so it is most likely that interview was a frankenbite?

with all due respect allaboutlove, you are not a mod here and people are still free to share their opinion. I mentioned partner in crime in one of my previous post and i wanted to clarify.
note: obviously you modified your post AAL. thank you.

I think this is all about what Heather meant and she was describing how deeply she felt about Sam by using the word partner given - if you said partner in an Australia you would most likely be in a very close, long term relationship and probably living together.

Thank you for the insight, AEF and BmHb and H-Bomb. It seems like a lot of Aussies and even Kiwi's ([You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] CMIIW) use the term "partner" to mean someone they are in a longterm relationship with (and may often times live with).
It's always interesting to learn about different meanings of words in different cultures. I love that about watching the different franchises.

For me too. In my country partner can mean a husband, fiance, longterm boyfriend. People usually don't get engaged, we don't have the whole big thing with a ring and meet the parents kind of engagements, because you'd usually meet parents very soon into the relationship (whether serious or not) and then people date and maybe sometime along the way if they figure out that they mean "business" and are serious they move in together, which usually leads to marriage, and there's no actual engagement period. And even if people do get "engaged" and exchange some sort of a jewellery, a woman to a man and a man to a woman, ring or whatever, it just means you are in a conscious commitment, just like being married without the papers and I think by the law if you are in a life partnership (cohabitation) longer than 3 years it can be treated as a marriage in some legal issues (children, patrimony, division of joint estate)AllAboutLove wrote:Thank you for the insight, AEF and BmHb and H-Bomb.

You're not wrong AAL. Downunder you only call someone "partner" if you are in a committed relationship with them - usually living together but not married. Also you'd call someone you're in business with a "partner" - but again that is a committed relationship.
I think that when Heather said partner she meant she felt that during the show she was committed to Sam.

here it is one year to become officially partnership (cohabitation).
but business partner is very common expression
if it is romantic, it is the gay who are using it mostly
the equivalent here is "conjoint" which means spouse even though there is no mariage involved.
All countries have their meaning and for me the typical word that I know the person is aussie is mate. And here again, it means something completely different in some countries.
ps: I understood by the way how heather said it....... mate as in friend zone right? (sowwwwee could not help it)

hrmmm I'm in Australia and I have always referred to my husband as my partner from the start of our relationship until now...
I like using it as its ambiguous (especially when I'm with people I've only just met) and can mean whatever I want it to
To me it just means your significant other....maybe "exclusive" and not necessarily "longterm" :P
I agree with Katiebelle and AAL that was what Heather meant when she referred to Sam as a "partner" as well
