Get the ldmug. Sadly, the vast majority of us are in slavery, whether it be based upon the necessity of a college degree, the expecation that one be in a lifelong relationship, need for financial resources (money), religious beliefs, social viewpoints, or whatever pointless reason.
It's very sad, but very true.

Get the Slaverymug. Something girls used to refer to their boyfriends as - possibly back in the 50s or 60s.
Something that home-body girls still call their guys in modern times - usu. after becoming engaged.
Personal plea: Please, get with the times. No one but your grandma has any excuse to talk like that.

Get the fellamug. This term, commonly used by college-age students, is someone you share a house with (or, less commonly, an apartment).
These people were, to my knowledge, formerly known as "roommates," in virtually all contexts.
Housemate seems to be merely one of the many trendy terms being tossed around these days.
Here are possible reasons for this word's existence:
A) Perhaps it's supposed to have less of the negative stigma that the word "roommate" seems to carry with it.
B) Also possible is that roommate implies a closer relationship/friendship than simply housemate.

John, Dave, and Bill were looking for another housemate to share in the rent.
That guy across the hall, he's my housemate.
