Smile also......

you mentioned that "pran pyaari" means love of my life (feminine), meaning that it would be used when a man was referring to a woman correct? How would the phrase be coined if a women was referring to a man? We are wanting to both get the same tattoo, are thinking of going with the "pran pyaari" phrase and are wondering whether or not the feminine or masculine version would me more appropriate. For example, in Spanish there are also differences in regards to masculine and feminine phrases, however the male phrase is used when trying to be gender neutral or when referring to both males and females. Would this also be true in Nepali, and if so would you suggest going with the masculine phrase? If you could show me what both the masculine and feminine versions of "pran pyaari" look like when written in devnagari I would be very grateful.
Sorry for bothering you with so many questions, and ONCE AGAIN thank you for taking time to reply....
