I was wondering about something. If you are over 40 and seeing someone, how do you refer to that person? Do you say boyfriend/girlfriend? That sounds kind of high school to me. I really hate "significant other". It sounds to PC.
Not an earth shattering subject, I know, just something I was curious about.

Theres nothing wrong with boyfriend/girlfriend. Please dont say significant other, thats cringe material!

I'm 35 and i still use the term boyfriend for lack of a better one.
My b/f just says, this is my woman, it's just whatever you're comfortable saying. You can say other half.

My friends who date call them their boyfriends or girlfriends. After all we are all still young at heart

Boyfriend/Girlfriend is not ages specific... my mother is over 60 and has a boyfriend.... however we just call him by his name.

You’re never too old to say she/he is your girlfriend or boyfriend. unless you want to say my lady friend.
