    Default DH - what does it mean??

    Okay I may be an idiot but I can not figure out for the life of me what DH means. I gather it is a term used for husband but the "D" has me thrown for a loop. I'm thinking it's a term used in the Northern states as a short way of saying dumba@@ husband but that's about all I can come up with

    Close? Or waaay out in left field??

    DH = Dear Husband
    DW = Dear Wife

    DE = Diatomaceous Earth (Sorry, couldn't resist)

    I could be wrong though.

    LOL!

    BH = Better Half

    Again, I could be wrong.

    Yes, Dr.Spike is right.

    Well, depending on the circumstances, Scott could be right with his interpretation of DH...... : )

    No, you are right...DE is Diatomaceous Earth (Sorry, I couldn't resist either! ).

    "The Saint" is another way of referring to MY wife (from someone who had met me AND her... )

    My DH (dear husband) says his friends don't use DW for dear wife, they use THE boss

    Thought I would share - it gave me a good laugh
