My wife and I are approaching the point in our lives where we have been together for longer than we haven't. I was born in 81, she in 82 and we got together in 2000. I'm planning to celebrate the exact date this happens for each of us.

Is there a word for the landmark date where days prior to the start of a relationship becomes less than days in the relationship?

  • If you discover what it is, please try and devise an equivalent for the day on which you have spent twice as long together as you have not. I calculate that my wife passed that point on 11 July last year. But being 3.5 years older I've got a further more than 6 years to go.

    Half Life Anniversary. It is used in this article also: fadedginger.wordpress.com/2012/09/17/anniversary-2012/amp

  • @ermanen if you put that as an answer I'll accept it.

  • @Phil: It is more of a nonce phrase but it is self-explanatory. It can have different meanings in different contexts also. I don't mind if you put it as an answer and accept it.

As mentioned in the comments, half-life anniversary can be used.
