Is this some kind of hip new term for boyfriend?
I've never heard of it before.

Is it, perhaps, a corruption of 'beau'?

Yep. Only, you know, stupid-sounding.

And, YES, I'm 16 and I think it sounds retarded!! I'd rather just call the person my boyfriend =)

But I believe it means boyfriend OR girlfriend, depends on who says it.

Yes, you're right about it. But it is used so often now, that guys use it to girls all the time. I'll admit I freaked when a guy started calling me that though, but my friends assured me it wasn't a big deal lol.

It is basically a pet name, but it is hardly new. I think I heard of it back in the mid to late 90's. But I think it did come from the word "beau"

Usually people who have a companion they refer to them as "boo" For exsample "come here boo" it means the same thing as darling, sweety, ect..
