Gender-Neutral Equivalents to Boyfriend/Girlfriend
Obviously, this is an incomplete list.
- Paramour
- Significant Other/SO
- Genderfriend
- Lover
- Sweetie/Sweetheart
- Partner
- Cuddle buddy
- Soul mate
- Steady
- [name]friend
- Mate
- personfriend
I personally love “main squeeze.”
I will only ever say “sweetie” in a British accent per River Song.
I have been referring to my hypothetical eventual sweetie as “queerfriend,” as in when I have a queerfriend we can double date with my two fave married couples all the time and life will be wonderful.
