relationship object

A common way of men (especially American men) being treated by women, whereby the man is valued not for who he is, but for the role that he fulfills in the woman's life. Similar to the way some men treat women as a sex-object.

Wow, Julie has no clue as to what her husband wants or needs, it's all about her. The poor guy is a total relationship object.

Girlfriend: Wow when was the last time you've done something like that for me?

Boyfriend: Are you kidding me? What about all those relationship points I racked up on those "shopping expeditions" with your mother?
