I may be just miserable and bitter but here goes.

it boils my piss when people refer to their OH as their “rock” and that they wouldn’t have got through “XYZ” without them.

A). Yes you would
B). How do you think it makes people who don’t have a partner feel.

Am I BU?

You are being unreasonable. If you start with accounting for any remote possibility of someone being offended or feeling insecure then 99% of conversations can't happen.

But then i feel calling someone you dated for a month "my ride or die", "my man", etc is quite ott and performative.

B/ nobody actually gives a fuck.
It’s not about you.
It’s about showing gratitude for someone important to them.
Get over it.

A) no I actually wouldn't have got through my thing without my partner, I'd go as far as to say they saved my life on more than one occasion.
B) I don't care what other people think.

Why on earth are you so bothered what other people (who you do not know) do or say - who gives a shit.
