What does LOML mean?

LOML = Love Of My Life

Short for “love of my life” — a tender (or playfully exaggerated) caption.

LOML is shorthand for “love of my life”. The literal use — captions of partners, family or pets — is sweet and common. The playful use is more common still: “loml” under a photo of a sandwich, a guitar, a bookshelf or a coffee.

It became extra-visible in 2024 with Taylor Swift’s song “loml”, which gave the abbreviation another bump on TikTok.

Lowercase in casual use, all-caps for emphasis.
