missingsignals Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 So I was talking to a crush on the phone earlier this week, and he dropped 2 "pet names" into the conversation. I became doll and darling. And darling reappeared in the next conversation. I am always puzzled about these, and I don't know how to read them if I haven't seen the person in enough contexts. Do thy use them often? Only when flirting? Or only if dating and beyond. What do you think? Link to comment
itsallgrand Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 If he is using them with you already, I think it's safe to say he uses them very casually. I wouldn't over think it. Link to comment
chitown9 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 He sounds like the type that calls waitresses pet names too. chi Link to comment

I think he is probably a big flirt (generally). I have know him for about a year. But we didn't really interact regularly till a couple of months ago, and the flirting* has been increasing over the past couple of weeks. *beyond the pet names I am not a pet name person, so I always wonder how people adopt them.

pippy longstocking Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 As said he might be one who calls everyone a name ...I probably drive everyone nuts on here because I call everyone darling .. Link to comment
Fudgie Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 As said he might be one who calls everyone a name ...I probably drive everyone nuts on here because I call everyone darling .. Nah that's actually one of the reasons I like your posts. I think it's cute. Link to comment
Dottieflanogon Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Not knowing this guy, it's hard to say why he does it. But there are some people who call everyone Hon, darling or Sweetie or whatever and they don't mean anything by it. Link to comment
HeartGoesOn Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 As said he might be one who calls everyone a name ...I probably drive everyone nuts on here because I call everyone darling .. Pipps is fab, fab, fab! OP, I agree with the others here, he's like this with everyone. I would simple take it with a grain of salt... Link to comment

mhowe Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I started calling my boyfriend Nunzio at year 6. I have no idea why. Link to comment
