What do you call your "significant other"?

* i'd prefer not to get a wealth of responses to the tune of "i don't have one" or "nothing" so cooperate with me a little.

I always get stuck on this, because I call my fiancee about a billion different things and hardly stick to the same thing twice.

Most regularly, he's "boyfriend"- which people have the nerve to get salty with me about because "you're getting married he's not your boyfriend anymore" even though he's perfectly okay with it.

He's also been "S.O", when I don't feel like giving his gender / other details away. "Partner" works for this, too.

He also has a wealth of pet names, which I won't print here because- well. You'd giggle, and I can't have that.
 
Babe, baby, darling, my love. :) Anything that really pops out at the moment.

well you did give his gender away.
 
I don't have one, but if I did I'd just call her my girlfriend to people in the know. My S.O. to people I don't know/ am not out to. I don't really like the way "partner" sounds, so I wouldn't use that.
 
Right now I'm too young to be married/engaged but if I was I'd just call him my husband no matter who it was..

I just got out of a 3 & a half year relationship and throughout the entire time, I never had any "pet names" for him. I just always felt weird, like I wasn't able to give him one... or maybe I just didn't want to. I don't know, I guess it's just not me to do so. He'd always refer to me as "love," though.

Awwww you are so sweet towards your significant other <3
Those are actually the names I give to my sister xD
 
Just boyfriend/his name. We both despise all that cringey darling sweetie babe stuff

Haha! I thought I would too, but- boyfriend is dumb, and I am dumb so we've just been dumb and affectionate since like- day one. You would probably throw up if you met us irl.
