Dictionary

in Polari, it is a term for a ‘lover’.

Outside of Polari, an affair is a relationship between two people in which one of them (or perhaps both) is also engaged in a relationship with someone else – for example, if someone is “having an affair”, it means they are engaging in a relationship outside of their existing, committed relationship (usually in secrecy, or supposed secrecy).
