[quote=LEONARDO,283954]One of my Chinese friends wrote an essay in Chinese talking about his personal understanding of the differences among a wife, a mistress and a soul-mate (a female confidant). He translated it into English and wanted to publish it at his blog. So he asked me to help revise his article. Since I am so busy, the revising work is done hastily. Some of the expressions are not idiomatic. I found his article interesting so that I asked for his permission to post his essay on this forum to share with you guys. If possible, can you please help revise this essay! Or exchange your opinion on the topic.

Wife, Mistress and Soul-mate

What does “wife” mean? Wife is someone to whom you are willing to give your savings for safe keeping. What does “mistress” mean? Mistress is someone whom you dated secretively and in fear of your wife discovered.

A wife is a restraint on your behavior. A wife restrains you from being casually associated with other women. Mistress is compensation for you who can give you the passion that you desire to obtain from your wife but can not obtain.  A female confidant is a good guide who can guide you get out of the maze.
