I'm with a girl, we hang out, we sleep together, but she doesn't say im her boyfriend, she says im her 'partner', what the shit does that mean?
Depends on how she says it. Could mean anything from SO to FWB.

when someone says "partner" I immediately think its a homosexual relationship, maybe she's trying to make people think you're just a very butch lesbian so she can score fringe points
FWB is my guess
might wanna use a condom

she wants you to ask her out officially numb nuts

she smiled? it was kind of a sad/sympathetic smile? She knows i like that label, she did just get out of a VERY long term relationship (i think it blew up because of me among other things), we've been going out for about a month or so, slept together for the first time this weekend
It shouldn't stress me out, but it does a bit.

Ordinarily "partner" indicates married-in-all-but-legality. She thinks you are a lot closer and more permanent than you.
really depends--could be a synonym for b/f deal if she's a feminist type. Alternatively it could mean that she's fucking other guys and you're just her favorite fwb--like a long term potential fwb or something kek
You're all retards. Partner means partner in life...better half..significant other etc. Boyfriend might feel too teenager for her.
it means she wants to marry you, dufus

It means she has a lot of friends with undercuts, bright red lipstick and librarian glasses.
Don't worry about it.

ask her. it could mean anything.
a lot of people think that homosexuals use the term 'partner' for a gay reference, but its not quite that. the thing about dating the same sex is that it sets a sense of equality to you. not that your bf is someone who takes care of you, or you of him, or anyone owns anyone or helps anyone.
a partnership is like having a best friend that you've sworn yourself to. it implies you are true equals and that there is a bond deeper than romance, you got each others backs.
or she might just nto be very committtal. ask her.
sounds like she's teasing you
