Как по-русски «boyfriend»?

[umconfused.livejournal.com]

Hi, I've been taking a beginning Russian class for 8 weeks now, and I decided to join an LJ community to help me learn more. So I have a question... what is the Russian word for "boyfriend"? My dictionary doesn't have that entry and I haven't been able to find a translation on any of the online translators. But then I went to lingvo.yandex.ru and it told me: парень, молодой человек; партнер, сожитель. But I'm not really sure what the differences are between them. I just want to know the general word for "boyfriend". And what are some words for terms of endearment? Thanks.

Russian LJ...

Hi, everybody...

I'm undertaking a project to write daily in Russian on my alternate language livejournal (hostis_leti) in Russian and Latin... as it goes on, I may drop the Latin.

My question for all of you is this: would anyone be willing to go over my livejournal and pick through the little weird things that I did wrong/don't sound right? If anyone would, I'd be much obliged.
