If you’re in a relationship, do you need to have a title to feel validated?  The majority seems to think a Title carries no weight.  The pessimistic answers are almost the majority in feeling that having a title doesn’t give you any more leverage than having no title.  Having a title to some means security in a relationship.  Whether it seems immature or not, you should always require and define your status in a relationship.   Knowing where you stand, leaves no room for error.  If you’ve spent an inordinate amount of hours with someone, and your interactions resemble that of a relationship, but when you begin to question your relationship status, and the question goes unanswered, you actually did get your answer, and it’s up to you to decide, “What’s in a Title?” 

Certainly having a title doesn’t constitute or guarantee monogamy, but why invest yourself into anyone who isn’t willing to claim you as their “woman” or “man?”  If when you are introduced to friends and family, and there is no title attached, you will then know, “What’s in a Title?”
