LOL...yeah...it is an antiquated way of saying you are "with someone"....and today...people think all kinds of weird things when you say he is "my lover".....
In the 70s and 80s...gay men used that term "my lover" all the time to describe their partner...it was a normal term at the time...
One thing now I have heard...they assume you have a husband...and a "lover" on the side LOL..which now that I think about it.....makes a statement about them...like WHY would they assume your husband isn't your lover anyway?
