什么是重要的另一半？(a significant other?)
另一个重要的是，在这个短语最字面的形式中，一个对个人有意义的人。这可能包括对个人生活有重大影响的亲密朋友和家庭成员。然而，最常见的是，短语“重要的另一半”专门用来指男朋友或女朋友、丈夫或妻子、生活伴侣或与个人有浪漫或亲密关系的其他人。
由于“重要的另一半”一词不区分性别和关系状态，例如已婚与简单约会，因此当说话者不熟悉对方时，它经常用于指代个人的浪漫伴侣。例如，如果有人邀请一位临时同事参加一个活动，他或她可能会说：“如果你愿意，请随意带上你的另一半。”这为人们提供了空间，让他们了解他或她的浪漫兴趣被邀请参加活动，但这并不意味着他或她是否结婚、约会或与同性约会。坚持使用“重要他人”一词在社会上是“安全的”，因为它可以防止个人因说话人的用词不当而受到冒犯，或不得不纠正说话人并解释其关系。。
按照同样的例子，即使邀请同事参加活动的人熟悉每个同事的配偶，他或她也可以选择发送电子邮件，而不必根据每个人的情况单独定制邀请。在一封群发邮件中写“带上你的另一半”要比根据邮件接收人的不同而将每个邀请改为“妻子”、“女朋友”等要容易得多。这句话也为那些可能没有和任何人约会的人留下了空间，他们可以带上一个亲密的朋友，而不会感到社交尴尬。。
不太常见的是，“重要的其他人”也可以指对个人非常重要的任何人。例如，当填写一张表格，要求对方提供电话号码，以便在紧急情况下与他们联系时，可能会发现这种用法。在这种情况下，输入父母或亲密朋友的姓名和电话号码与留下配偶的姓名和联系方式一样合适。
