What does the term �lady friend� mean to you? To me it sounds like something negative�like a term to be used as a euphemism for an affair or something. �Pssst, did you know that Mrs. Johnson�s husband has a lady friend?� However, since I have now been twice referred to as Justin�s �lady friend� (once directly by a former neighbor and once indirectly by one of his colleagues) he�s been trying to convince me that it�s just an old term for girlfriend. I know he�s right (as he normally is) but I still think �lady friend� sounds funny. All this �lady friend� business has got me thinking about titles in relationships. I often wonder what I�m supposed to call Justin because �boyfriend� doesn�t quite do justice to the seriousness of our relationship but �cohabitating significant other� doesn�t quite roll of the tongue and it certainly doesn�t sound very romantic. I�m open to any and all title suggestions should you happen to have some ideas�
