People younger/the same age constantly use terms like “hun” and “sweetie” etc.? I mean yeah, I’ll call my girls things like that if I’m joking around. But with people I don’t know well use them, it just bothers me... and quite a bit of the time I feel as though most of the people who use those terms with me are trying to be condescending because they have something against me (not that I always know that... I just get the “feeling” like I said...) or are in someway trying to prove they are above me.
Haha but I’m probably a freak... but to me it’s like, ok I’m not a child, we are both adults...
-oh and don’t get me wrong, I most definitely think some people say things like that will no rude intentions and mean it in a purely affectionate way... I’m just talking about the “other” people..lol.
Can anyone relate, or am I alone on this one?
