>>1551978A girlfriend is a female friend or acquaintance, often a regular female companion with whom one is platonic, romantically or sexually involved.[1] This could be a long-term committed relationship. This is normally a short-term committed relationship, where other titles (e.g. ladyfriend, partner, wife) are more commonly used for long-term committed relationships. A girlfriend can also be called an admirer, beau, suitor and sweetheart.[2]
