Eh, terms are difficult, especially when it's "unconventional" relationships in some way. Though I suppose dating more than one person may only be unconventional in some of my world rather than all around. It wasn't terribly uncommon where I grew up.
Partners, typically. Which... admittedly leads to confusion. Somehow saying 'boyfriends' sounds a touch odd when you're old enough I suppose.
Dating partners Business partners Partners in crime Project partners Partners on a team ...I see what you mean.
[ It is admittedly a little worrisome to find out who does and doesn't turn an odd look (or text) at three instead of two. Midoriya was made fun of for most of his childhood, so he takes whatever in stride, but he is very sensitive about people being rude to people he cares about.
But Viktor comes off as thoughtful and no-nonsense. Palamedes, likewise, seems to have his mind on higher things than conventions. ]
Anyway yes I hope I can make it to your next lesson. I'll check my shifts and text you when I'm free.
Yes, it admittedly gets cumbersome to say partners then make sure to inform it is both of a romantic and professional variety. We probably should just deal with 'boyfriend' regardless.
And excellent. I hope to see you soon then.
[surely nothing will come up in early july haha...]
