Do you hate when people use the abbreviations such as SO and LO

Question

I personally get annoyed by all the abbreviations what's your opinion?

Answer

Ikr!!!

Answer

The only abbreviation that trips me up on this app is FTM.

Obviously, here it's used to mean first time mom.

But that abbreviation generally means female to male.

So yeah. It's always a little confusing to me.

Answer

SO is so inclusive though. You don't always know if your talking to someone with a husband or a boyfriend or FWB or if they have a girlfriend or a wife of a lover who's Non-Binary.

Instead of listing all the options, and instead of ignoring the options that don't fit your preferences - just use SO. It's easier. It's polite.

Answer

I use some. But I don't know what others mean, so I'm more confused than annoyed. :/

Answer

I use SO when I'm not sure if the poster is talking about a boyfriend, husband, ex. etc. 
It is so much easier to type SO instead of significant other. And, in the replies to comments, there are only x number of characters that can be used.

Poor grammar and horrendous spelling and punctuation irritate me. I am not saying I expect perfect grammar or perfect spelling. I am talking about those posts that are almost impossible to comprehend because of how terribly they are written.

Answer

I've been TTC going on almost 4 years with my SO. When you've been on this journey for so long, you learn the abbreviations and I believe GLOW has the abbreviations pinned somewhere. It's such a petty thing to be annoyed about. I'm more annoyed by not being able to have a sticky bean with my SO.

Answer

SO is easier to use in many situations. I've never even seen "LO" before.

Answer

There are at least a couple groups that have the abbreviations as a pinned post. No need to get annoyed about people wanting help and support. So why if they choose to say SO instead of boyfriend, sounds more adult to me than that and way easier than significant other.

Answer

Annoyed? No. It's a waste of time. The only one that gets me is AF because it means something completely different outside of Ruby/Glow.

Answer

Who cares?
