boyfriends
Guys you're dating
Boyfriends is the plural of boyfriend—a male romantic partner, typically in a relationship that isn't yet marriage.
The word implies ongoing involvement rather than casual dating: She's had three boyfriends since college.
Someone's boyfriend is usually exclusive, though the term can describe non-monogamous arrangements too.
