We still have nick names though. He calls me Shamu, and I call him Douchebag. Usually in that order.

For some reason, I find that adorable in a "playfully/jokingly mean" kind of way.

I use "sweetie" when I'm being passive-aggressive.

Surefire way to get me to start a brawl when I'm wasted.

In other words, PLEASE DO IT. n_n

Did I just walk into the twilight zone? hon rocks. and it's hon.

3) What does ":3" mean to you? I've never understood it.

EDIT: 4) What are girls of other worlds like?
ANOTHER EDIT: 5) How do you feel about our conversation on another thread getting removed because it was off-topic?

1. I see "hun" as not a name but a title. Therefore I have the same problem with my g/f calling me her "boyfriend" with her calling me "hun". Which is none...

2. Its hard to scare me off. I thought you were quite cute and witty with your replies. Keep it up!

3. I never seen :3 used personally so I don't know why this question came up. Its that time of month again, so right now, if I was to answer, I would say it look like a pair of breasts from aerial view.

4. Girls of other worlds are amazing. They don't whine or bicker about simple things like having their b/f calling them huns. I hope one day you get to experience them.

5. I didn't know about those deletion until you mentioned it here. Personally, I feel like it is warranted. On top of it, it feel so much more special now that it got deleted. People for generations will asked about what Stock, alh24, and PHLN was talking about...

Answering questions is fun. I hope to instill this excitement again for you soon hun.

I consider a boyfriend calling me something that he called his ex-girlfriend to be nearly on the same level as calling me by her actual name.

By the looks of the other thread, people will probably think we were swearing at one another. But in reality, we were just derailing a lifeless thread. But it was warranted, agreed.

Keep in mind, certain cultures have a specific name/title that a person should called the other when they are in a relationship. Usually it all end up translating to "older brother" or "younger sister".

To be in a position for them to address you as such is a blessing and shouldn't be regarded as disrespect just because it was used to address someone else prior. There is a reason why you are being called that now instead of them.

I don't necessarily consider it "disrespect" as much as I do "irritating," because every time he said it I thought of the twenty or so times I heard him call his ex-girlfriend that. I realize it's nothing disrespectful on his part, but it felt weird because of that.

To the first part, that's understandable if you're a part of one of those cultures. He and I aren't.

So he was concurrently calling you (his pride and cherish current g/f) and his ex hun?

In that situation then I agree it was weird. Once someone becomes my ex, they don't get to be called that anymore and its reserve for the current or future g/f.

No. When he was dating his ex-girlfriend (my friend - weird situation), he always called her "babe." Being her friend and his friend, I was always around and heard him calling her that. So when I went out with him for a while and he called me that, every time I heard it I thought of all the times he called her that, and that weirded me out a little.

EDIT: The "you went out with my friend" thing eventually led to our demise, so it's quite likely that it was just weird because the person he originally referred to as "babe" was my friend and the mental imagery was too much to handle.

Like I mentioned, I consider "hun" as more of a title than a name. In that respect, is it then weird for you when he called you his "girlfriend" knowing that called someone else that? Probably not right?

And yea... Its usually a good idea to stick to the code of not dating your friend's ex.

Then again, both you and your friend could be crazy hormonal ******* and the guy was smart enough to run away. (too soon?)

Not if you consider it a title and not a nickname, but I consider it a nickname.

I broke up with him, so I guess I ran. It was a year ago, no worries.
