Basically all the ones I dated who had nothing interesting to say and were instead treated to endless lectures from me on the topics of miles, points and BRGs.

Luckily I am already married to a wonderful woman who knows nothing about points but trusts me to handle everything.

On our last trip we were headed to the airport 1:40 minutes before our flight (and we didn't yet have tickets since we had to buy them at the airport). I asked the driver how long the drive is and he replied: "About 1 hour". I turned to my wife and asked "are you nervous?" "No!" she answered, "Iv'e traveled with you before".
(we bought the tickets and made the flight with 20 minutes to spare)

+1!
Gota have trust in a marriage!

One issue with this whole can be if she she becomes restrictive of accessing her accounts and doesn't let credit open up credit cards in her name or credit miles flew to her account.

I can definitely identify as a woman if the lecture is worthwhile...and exclusive!

Ballpark for any of those, just curious.
For the first many years of marriage, 100% were together.

In the last few years, when it's harder with all the kids etc, maybe 70/30.
