You’re not running a business with this person

I propose we start referring to single people as "sole proprietorships". >

I use partner instead of girlfriend. Girlfriend feels so high-school and immature >

Well, If only same-sex relationship ppl use the term. Ppl will imidiately know they are in a same sex relationship. >

This is what I was going to say! It’s about normalizing the language to protect the people who don’t want to share their sexuality! >

And not making it a big deal what your sexuality is! >


Exception being if it’s a same-sex relationship and the person speaking doesn’t want to disclose that part of their life.

But then if it's only gay people using the label partner,  gay people would be indirectly disclosing that aspect of their life. This don't make sense because we would need a new word
I also like the word partner because boyfriend/ girlfriend sounds like in your school >

I use partner because it's nobody's business but mine if I'm gay or straight, married or dating. >

I know everything I need to know about you >

Dillman?
