O nooooo a word that is completely fucking accurate but does not directly reaffirm my cis het self!! The horror.

I like the term partner because girlfriend sounds like Im in high school. But throw in the added benefit of not heteronormalizing basic conversation AND making intolerant people uncomfortable.... good stuff.

I always liked "cosmic orphan buddy" instead of "girlfriend" even though I was never really sure what it means. I solved the whole problem by becoming permanently single.
