Since you use it a lot on this forum I got the general meaning, but what do the "S" and the "O" stand for ?

Better half is used here too Gitte.

Part of the reason for S/O is that after a "certain" age
Boyfriend/girlfriend sounds a little strange to some.

Though a co-worker recently asked me when I was going to see my "fella" abbreviated "fellow"...a retro name I sort of like!

What makes that person better?

Great Site!!
but don't you wish sometimes you could Exalt and Smite sites/webmasters?
I would give this site (abbreviations) both. Many many, Exalts for the completeness of list, Smite for all the advertisements above the abbreviations list. If you have to do that to have sponsors, then put along the side like Google does.

holger: I am not switching so if the rest of you leave, it will be farewell. Makes no sense to create a new site instead of just posting here. have enough work related list servs and blogs to read and respond to. Certainly don't need ano Feb 24, 2015 16:47:51 GMT -5

holger: It really does seem as if the site is moribund. Too bad and as I no longer have emails for anyone on my computer just want to wish you all well. I do check periodically but mostly now go to slow travel and the France forum there. Apr 22, 2015 7:54:32 GMT -5
