T probably means therapist.

I know one!

 

FWB = Friends with Benefits.

 

That's all I know since I'm new here.

No, that's me. ;) j/k, I think you're right. (That's "just kidding.")

 

H = husband

W = Wife

BS = betrayed spouse, sometimes BW or BH for husband or wife

CS, WS = cheating spouse, wayward spouse

MM, MW - married man, married woman, usually a cheating person, referred to by an OW or OM, as in "my MM is with his W tonight..."

STBXH, STBXW, or just STBX - soon to be ex-husband, ex-wife, or just ex

R - sometimes "relationship"

D - sometimes "divorce"

 

The single-letters can be a little dicey sometimes, but you can usually figure them out from context. "My T says we need to work on our R, or we may end up getting a D." I tend to think the single letter ones are a bit lazy as abbreviations, in contrast with something like STBX, which does simplify things, and which we just kind of get used to reading as its own word, in a way.
