1. My Better Half
You've probably heard some single women say that they're looking for someone to complete them (which is misleading, since you're already whole). However, that common phrase is why some people will call their boyfriend their "other half." Of course, it's even better to call him your "better half." That way, it makes it sound like he brings out the best parts of you, which is exactly what the right man should do.
2. Soulmate
Some people believe that they were destined to meet the love of their life, because their souls are connected in some way. Even if you don't buy into that, it's still sweet to call your boyfriend your soulmate. It suggests that there's a deep connection between the two of you that extends beyond physical attraction.
3. My Partner
This is a short and simple way to refer to your boyfriend. Of course, it's pretty vague. That's why you should use it when you aren't interested in going into detail about your partner. When you use this term, it'll be impossible for others to tell if you're dating or married, with a man or a woman, or talking about a business partner or a romantic partner. It'll help you keep your private life private.
4. My Beloved
If you want to remind your boyfriend that you love him, then you should refer to him as your beloved. The word "love" is actually hidden inside, which means that your man will never forget how much you care. Plus, it's a term that you don't hear all that often, which is why you'll sound unique when you use it!

5. Beau
You've heard plenty of girls refer to their boyfriend as "bae," which means "before anyone else." However, the word "beau" has been around for much longer. It means "a boyfriend of a male admirer." So if you want to sound old fashioned instead of using modern slang, you should test out this word on your tongue.
6. Significant Other
As you probably already know, significant means "sufficiently great or important to be worthy of attention." That's why this term is so cute! It suggests that your partner is one of the most important things in the world. If that's the truth, then you shouldn't hesitate to use this term.
7. My Intended
This is an adorable way to refer to your boyfriend! It could mean a variety of things. It could mean that you're intending on marrying him, that you're intending on raising his children, or that you're intending on spending the rest of your life with him.
You can refer to your partner in a number of ways. You can use one of the terms on this list, or you can create your own!
