Not at all always use those names my self not very good at remembering peoples names so its easier to call them darling or love xxxxxxx

The ones I hate are Deer and Duck and thats what they say up here, Fair enough if I had fur and antlers or feathers and a beak. Don't mind others so much especially if I have known that person in cyberspace for a while

I promise its always said nicely!! I love it when people say 'darling' to me. had an ex that used to call me 'SWEETS' and I still smile when i think of it!! And him if I'm honest!! He's a croat and looks like that doc off ER!! Married now with children sadly!! LOL!! xx

It takes a lot to offend me !!! ;0)

Don't be daft !! lol Of course not. :-)

Exactly my point Paul! LOL - Although I am sure you are. XXX

Phew!!! ignored no longer............... smiling again :-) x for Paul and everyone else!! :-)

Mags - if the gorgeous was aimed at me, you don't know me that well at all PMSL Joy - sorry, didn't realise I was ignoring you !

och well thats okay then hen, my love, doll snookums, dearie, but not babe!! x x x lolol

Hi Diana, I have to admit to being a bit taken aback the first time you called me that, after all you didn't know me, but as others have said it is you, so no, I don't mind. One of my Sons in Law calls me' babe' & I am happy with that but not sure I would want anyone I didn't know well to call me it. A van boy from the laundry we deal with sometimes calls me 'maid', a Devon expression, & that tickles me. The thought of this young lad calling a 62yr old woman maid, well. lol Vivienne

Exactly Paul - the sentiment. Often I think these 'terms of endearment' are nothing but a habit people get into and there is no sentiment behind the words at all - at least not the right one! LOL Think how many ways you can say 'darling' - from friendly (and more) to downright sneering. Who's to tell which way it's meant?? When someone knows the person personally, I think that's different. Ok gorgeous??

Thank you, Diana........... and Jill.............. :-) *** come home from work, add football and got ignored!!......... by Paul now :-) *** Actually I quite like all the other endearments :-)

awww Joy....ba....emm....hu...........emmmmmmmm....aww Joy!!! lol x x

Joy - I'd never ignore you 'babe' LOL!! xx

Mind you after all these years i answer to any name as long as they call me

No I don't mind :)) Heather x I suppose some get the huff with smile & kisses but I still put them on lol

I was ignored :(

Diana - spot on. it's not the words used is it, it's the sentiment behind it that counts. Paul xx

I don't care what I get called sweetheart as long as people are nice!! :O)

Do you get offended when i call you pink fluffy one. i dont mind yours only thing i dont like is when a bloke calls me dearie,im not his grannie of 90
