    Default I'm finally going to ask

    I've been a member for about a month and a half..and LOVE IT by the way, and I read all posts from different areas here. I always see, (and use it myself) DH, DD and such. I have interpreted the "D" as "darling" so that is my intent when I use it. I just wanted to check and see what the real meaning is if I am not correct. I feel silly asking this question because it seems as though everyone uses it and knows its meaning.
    Thanks for answering me, and you can call me crazy, that's fine, everyone else does..LOL

    I get confused too - you're not alone. I suppose its because I'm not a 'texter' or used to shortcuts. Could someone enlighten us please?

    On other forums i've seen both Dear and Darling And I've seen the occasional HFH too (husband from hell) lol And there's always MIL (mother-in-law) and FIL (father-in-law), FH (future husband), FI (fiancé), and probably a bunch more that my overtired brain can't remember lol

    Ahhh thank you! I understood DD1 as the first but must admit I would think BF as best friend. I guess you can tell the difference when reading full content, and most people refer to their best friend as BFF. I'm so glad that is cleared up and pretty painless too.
    Thanks Peachy!

    I got rid of my HFH and traded him in for a DH, LOL and already knew the others. Your right, there probably are many others.
    Thanks!
