Serioso

A term for one's significant other, to be used by adult heterosexual couples in long-term or lifelong, monogamous relationships who are serious, live together and have built their lives together, but have yet to get engaged or don't intend to marry at all.

Where "boyfriend/girlfriend" is too childish, "husband/wife" doesn't apply, "fiance" is dishonest, "partner" sounds homosexual and "lover" is too sexual, there is serioso. Coined by Chemda of the Keith and The Girl podcast, episode 130.

"My serioso and I are coming up on our six year anniversary."

Get the Serioso mug.

seriosity

gravity, solemnity, sobriety, demureness, staidness, grimness,

I make this observation
With no animosity
And just a tiny modicum
Of curiosity:

Apparently there’s no such word
As seriosity
And it is my opinion that
There surely ought to be.

So in conclusion, I must say
(I hope you would agree)
This glaring oversight
Is sheer ludicrosity.
