I mean, I hate that there’s no word for when your boyfriend is a boyfriend of like, THREE OR FOUR YEARS, you know? It’s like, he’s not just my boyfriend, I didn’t just meet him yesterday. We’re practically ENGAGED. I just think people don’t get the seriousness of the situation if you just say “he’s my boyfriend.

I don’t know this girl, but this is true. I hate using the word because it sounds somehow immature and flighty. 12-year-olds have boyfriends. And no, while there’s no ring on my finger, this is a man who feeds my cat and who has unclogged my toilet. There’s kind of an irrevocable intimacy there.

Ha! I love that those particular acts are the signs of commitment. In any case, this is why I use “de facto-engaged.” I find it does the trick.
