sother

Your mate, spouse, husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, steady and/or lover. Term invented by writer Alden Loveshade that's easier to say and less pretentious than "significant other". Rhymes with "mother" and "brother".

That there's Pat, my new sother.

Pat? What happened to your old sother?

Dude, all Chris wanted to do was cuddles and sharies.

significant other

Your mate, spouse, husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, steady and/or lover. Used when you don't want to be too specific, or when the details are nobody's business.

Why's Roger always talking about his significant other? Why don't he just say girlfriend?

Because his "girlfriend" is a guy named Bruce.
