Hi Misfit,
Thinking what g/f might stand for...
On this end, I'm still working on activating my account. One day...
g/f = Girlfriend. Well, fiance really, significant other, intended,
better
half... You get the picture.

Better go with s/o, to play it safe.
She sure sounded like she was feeling a lot more "significant" than
a g/f, in the last post I saw by her! ;-)
LOL, yeah.
It's just that the term 'significant other' is hardly ever used in New
Zealand, although we are slowly being assimilated by the borg (USA).
Nobody really uses it in the States, either, except maybe by the media in an
attempt ot be PC.
I just wanted to get some word-play out of "significant". ;-)
