Wifey (The Ringless Marriage)

Every woman wants to be  wife, no matter how much you say marriage is not for you, you are happy being single, or you are happy the way things are. But I am not talking to the single ladies, who are independent and is not in a relationship. I am talking to my ladies who is in a relationship with a man they have been with over two years, calling him "hubby", he is calling you his "wifey", you both are living together have kids together plus a dog and sharing a car. You talk yourself into thinking that everything is cool, and comfortable the way things are, I mean hey like your "hubby" say marriage is just a piece of paper right? You don't really need that diamond ring, or that contract called a marriage license to seal the deal.
 Wrong. Marriage is not just consumation, or a little piece of paper that says you are married. It is a agreement before God, and a commitment from him letting you know that he is willing to share the rest of his life with you and if he has morals only you. That his love goes far beyond the bedroom, he loves with every thing he has. Your "hubby" telling you that marriage is just a piece of paper, is just his way of saying that he is not ready to take that big step and he is comfortable the way things are. Because if and when it comes a time where he is ready to live "single" again he has no problem with packing his bags, leaving and telling you (if you have kids together) that he will come  and see his children every other weekend.
  It is not that every woman wants to be a wife, but every woman deserves to be a wife. They deserve the ring, and the license that seals the total package and the deal. You are acting the role as a  wife, yet you are not getting wife benefits. You understand what I am saying? And when you realize you are potraying characteristics of a wife, but you are not getting the benefits a wife deserve, you will then wake up and start feeling unappreciated.
  Wifey is just a term to describe a girlfriend a man has been with for a long amount of time that acts as a wife, but has no plan to seal the deal. So what do you consider yourself, a wifey or a wife?
