What exactly is dating in the US?
Jimmy the Squid:
I like partner because it implies that they have my back in a shootout which is absolutely something I expect.
I also accept Co-Pilot and XO.
Method of Madness:
Don't co-pilot and XO both imply being your second in command as opposed to your equal?

Good point and well made, except that we both refer to each other as our XO so I guess neither of us is in charge? Also co-pilot as in Jaegar co-pilot. Equals :)
Welu:
I say Partner, it's what I use to refer to them here and in person when I don't want to use their name for any reason. Sometimes fiance if I'm meeting a new person. It works for us because as well as being in a romantic relationship, we work together and I always prefer a gender neutral term. I've expressed before it usually feels awkward saying, "Fiance" because one, it physically doesn't feel nice to say, something about enunciating it just feels awkward in my mouth. Two, it feels like a big personal bit of info to tell casually. I talked about this in more detail here a while ago. When we're married I'll probably still say Partner or Spouse when appropriate.
