Slick-dick 

To be a Slick-dick is to send a gift to your loved one that coincidentally arrives with near perfect timing. Not something that you planned, but nonetheless something that enhances the overall experience for your partner.

In this instance the appearance of being slick would be unjustified, thus you're a Slick-dick.
Stuart sending an Easter egg making kit to Susie for her April birthday made him a "dick". Sending rollerskates that arrived just as her existing plans unravelled made Stuart a "Slick-dick".
To live the Pug-life is to "Pug-it", meaning to honour a partner's trust in you without waivering.

The opposite of Pug-it would be to Elf-it, leaving your significant other feeling Unpugged. That could make you Unpugworthy in their eyes.

Fulfilling the Pug-life is to follow through on your commitments to your partner, leaving no doubt as to your devotion to them.
As Susie sat there alone with a sharp knife, she contemplated opening her birthday present early. She strongly believed that "trust is everything" in a relationship. She had promised Stuart that she would not open it. She chose the Pug-life.

Elf-it (verb) is to bluff to someone you love that you watched their favourite Christmas movie with them. Convincing them you watched it by describing it as "Christmassy" when it clearly is not "Christmassy".

This term is now used in general conversation when you have told a white lie: you elfed-it/to elf-it
Stuart was so busy eating Chinese food that he didn't watch the film that Susie had asked him to watch with her. She knew he'd elf-it and she was correct. Stuart sat on a "throne of lies".

Dream plan 

A compound word that describes a future journey that recognises the similarities between dreaming and planning to achieve a mutually desired outcome.

It is a cognitive approach whereby two different people can visualise a fixed point in the future, but also remain playful with it to establish a route to achieving their objective.

When the concepts of dreaming and planning come together, the resulting dream plan is formed.
Whereas Susie prefers to establish a fixed plan as to how she will eventually meet Stuart, he endeavours to make his dreams of meeting Susie come true. Together they dream planned their future that was their destiny.
A word that came about due to a mishearing of the lyrics of the hit song Love of the Common People by popular recording artist Paul Young.

The lyric "Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to" were misinterpreted erroneously as "Daddy's gonna buy you a dream liginto".

Over time the word has become associated with references to the fate that brings two lovers together.
Neither Stuart nor Susie really liked the term soulmate, but Susie really was Stuarts dream liginto.
