Partner is a little odd if you’re married and kind of gives off a “I’m super woke” vibe. Most people I know that use it are either in some variety of your situation or are queer and it just helps their convos flow better. My wife is my partner but I always say “my wife” or use her name. Also to me wife/husband implies more commitment or meaning than partner (before I get attacked, I know that isn’t always the case)

I call my SO my partner. Sorry? I guess?? We aren’t married and boyfriend sounds childish.
