Why would you presume to own her? Being in a relationship does not mean taking ownership of that person, that's called slavery.

I can only speculate...because I don't know exactly what happened, just that one sentence. It's possible that your partner feels stifled in the relationship, and maybe like he/she can't graps a hold of his/her identity seperate from you. Or maybe he/she feels controlled. It sounds like it's an issue of freedom and this person feels like they want to be their own person. Again, I could be completely off because I don't know the context of the sentence. I would simply ask your partner about it at a later time, and have a conversation about it. Just ask what exactly was meant by the sentence. And be open for whatever answer it may be, as you are the one inquiring.

i'd think he was right. i think we need the context it which it was said though, because it was probably said during a fight after you had asked him to do/not to do something. Actually, its a pretty silly comment to make. why bother saying it at all? its just stating a very obvious fact.

i'd say, i don't own you, but that you are a part of me so i already have you.

I'd reply back, "That goes both ways, and the point is?"
