Pet names from lovers, do you like them or are they silly?
Have you ever had one assigned to you by a lover?
When talking to me, my husband calls me "squishy bear." And, when talking about me to others, he calls me "the General."
I think I would like them to be combined. As in, General Squishy Bear. LOL
I have had a couple. The one that really gets me is my current girlfriend preferring to call me by my full first name. The way she says it is very sweet and almost no one else calls me that, so it feels pretty special, despite not being a traditionally cutesy pet name.
I was called Fluffy or Fluff. I didn't mind being called that, except when she did it in front of other people.
My ex-husband would call me his "beady-bee" and I have no idea how that came about.
My favorite, and perhaps the only one I've ever liked, is Kitten Face. But it's not from a lover, its from a friend. Apparently, my face is very soft and strokable. And maybe she was drunk when she came up with it, but it has stuck in certain circles.
Thumper and The man are the last 2 that i can remember. I have given every long term partner a nick name. I think it creates a special bond.@azzow2 Did your girl move to Florida? LOL
One of them did she was working for Disney for a while she would do overtime as one of the charters Cinderella.
@azzow2 The girl I'm talking about did work at Disney for a while. What are the odds? I'm not in touch with her anymore so we'll just leave it as an amusing coincidence.
LOL! general squishy bear! hahaha!
i had one lover with whom i shared a selection of sentimentally coloured, kitschy pet names in an affectedly gushing way, like plueschi (fluffy) & hummelpo (bumblebee's bum); we were the igelbauch ([tender as a] hedgehog's belly) & he was katzibaer (kitten bear) which turned into kotzibaer (puke bear) during arguments.
@silvereyes, i used to fall for the creative guys, musicians, poets, painters, with empty pockets
@silvereyes, until it comes to paying the bill
Babe, Love, Dear, Muppy. (Monkey-puppy- don't ask it was high school...) Lol.
