lady friends
Women one knows
Lady friends is a slightly old-fashioned or deliberately coy term for a man's female romantic interests or girlfriends: He's been seen around town with various lady friends.
The plural often implies multiple partners or a lack of commitment.
In older usage, it could mean simply female friends, but this sense has faded as the romantic implication grew stronger.
