Never Lie About Who You Really Are
I've always thought that lover implied sex ('lover' describing that they 'make love'), which is not a given in all relationships.

It would probably be unusual (and super depressing) to have a sexless affair. I have also heard the term used in place of "fuck buddy" though.

I meant to imply that "lover" was defined as "someone you have sex with," not "someone you are having an affair with." It's just used in the context of an affair because your partner in the affair is someone you have sex with.
