intials?
« on: July 04, 2007, 04:17:46 AM »
There are a lot of initials used here that I'm not familiar with. I notice them when people are talking about their spouses. DD I think? And others.

Please clue me in.


Never leave your partner, especially in a fire.

Here's a list: http://www.astro.umd.edu/~marshall/abbrev.html

When I asked what DH was, I thought the D stood for something that holds water back in the river. Then someone said that it depended on the mood she was in at the time.

We don't use many of them but the people who text message use a lot of them.

DH can certainly stand for Dear Husband or Damn Husband or Dear Husband said sarcastically which means Damn Husband.  :D

And when my bride refers to me as "You DH" I thought it meant something that rhymes with Rick and Bed........  {:-P;;
