Personally, I think terms like "my man" and "my woman" sound very possessive. A non-gender specific label like "partner" might be a good option as Michelle suggested. Another option might be to just avoid labels completely. Since the two of you have been together for 3 years, it seems likely that most people you know well will recognize him by name. When introducing him to others, is it necessary to explain what your personal relationship with him is?
