What is the meaning of "being biased"?
The other day I was listening a song on the radio that said something like:
- "You think I'm biased to my significant other".
What does "to be biased" mean in that context? Does it have other meanings?
Thanks,
Javi :D

If you're biased towards something, it's like a prejudice, but often in a good sense.
For example, a mother would say:
'I think Joe's the best singer in the competition. But I'm his mum, so of course I'm biased!'
It's always used in this sense. For example you would say:
'Please give me your honest, unbiased opinion'.
This means an objective or impartial opinion.
