Your lover, significant other, darling, or what ever pet name that you have for your sweetie.

A beloved person, be they family member, friend, or lover/life partner.

Somebody who is very dear, sweet, and kind.
Why should we be branded with a label because of our sexuality? We're lovers, sweethearts. "Sweethearts" was what we used among ourselves before "lesbian", "homosexuality", "queer", and "gay" really entered the picture. We didn't name it, we did it.

"Cara mia"- "my darling"
"Mon cher"- " "
"A ghaoil"- "O love"
"A rúin"- " "
"A leannain"- "Sweetheart"
"Mo ghràdh"- "My love"
"Cariad"- "Beloved"

Etc etc.
