partnered
Teamed up with
Partnered describes being in a partnership—romantic, business, or otherwise.
Someone who is partnered has a significant other: She's been happily partnered for ten years.
In dancing, partnered means paired with someone: Each student was partnered with an experienced dancer.
The word often appears in contexts where "married" would be too specific or presumptuous.
