The word "friend" is always a "good word" for anyone you consider to be your partner. Your friends are your friends because you agree and share similar values with one another. Your significant other is not only your friend, but should be considered your best friend because you agree and share similar values with one another, but on a higher level. As a result, (unless you are married) he should be introduced as your friend, and he should also be introducing you as his friend.

ETA: the last time I referred to someone as my "girlfriend" was when I was a Junior in high school.
