What is DH?

I thought it was someone's name at first. Then I saw it everywhere. What does DH stand for?

I believe it stands for "Darling Husband" but I may be wrong!

I use it...the H is for Husband.  For me the D can be anything...Dumb, Darling, Dear, Deaf, Dorky, Dangerous, Dumpling, Dingbat etc..but that all depends on what he's been up to lately!   

But yes, Darling Husband is probably right.

that thread explains em all

Is it then safe to assume that using DF would be Dear Fiance?

yes

OK I may get slammed on this one but I find it all annoying! I usually write hubby or hubs or even Frank I mean how long does it take to type HUSBAND or BOYFRIEND or even SON? I think I tried the DH,DS, etc a few times but it just felt weird.
  I know I'm probably the only one who finds it annoying but I just wanted to mention it. I'm probably just in a mood today     

I feel weird using the abbreviations, too.  It's just not natural for me.  I don't even use LOL.

So DP....I mean darling Pebbles  --you're not the only one. 

I don't mind DH (which I think of as "dear husband" not "darling husband"), don't like DF (but then I'm not too terribly fond of the word fiance, I prefer FH- future husband.)  I kind of look at them as just another internet abbreviation, I guess *shrug*

ROTF LMAO DA! LOL

I know. Most folks on the net use abbreviations of some sort. It's the the DD, DS, DH, DF, etc that I find annoying   

I use bf for boyfriend. But I think that's in part because 'boyfriend' is such a silly word to use when you're both our age! 

I don't find DS, DH, DD, etc. annoying when other people use them.  I just feel weird about using them myself.  I think it's because I don't use phrases like "darling daughter" "dear husband" when referring to my family in "live" conversations.

I'm sure I'll be unpopular with this, but here goes.

I can deal with the DH/DS/DQ stuff, although I do find it a bit irritating.  However, it's the people who insist on using textspeak in posts that drive me up a wall.  Is it really that hard to write 'you are', 'you're' or 'your' instead of 'ur'?

How about 'lovah'?

Oh FunGirl I feel your pain!  I *hate* text speak, whether it's on internet sites, email, or even *gasp* texts!  Especially "u" for you- that in particular drives me crazy.  Maybe I'm a dork, but I always spell out my words even in text messages...

Nah, it's not just you.  I never used DH (or DF, or whatever) until I started hanging around this forum - I've always just said "Chris."  I mean, I talk about him enough that people should know who he is!    But when in Rome....

Darn.  Now I want to go to Rome.
