Words Of Endearment

Pun Intended...

"Darling"

"Sweetheart"

"Honey"

"Dear..."

Oh and yes,

How can I forget

"Baby.."

All these words

of endearment

kinda make me 

sick...

Call me by my name,

why don't you?

This is probably my introvert nature speaking 😂

I love the slightly hesitant outspokenness of this statement. I'm not a fan of nicknames either. In a longterm relationship, a nickname symbolizes how sometimes the other person doesn't really even see you, but just a caricature of you that they've conveniently drawn from observation & expectation (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Aye, I think nicknames like these are just too generic and maybe even objectifying or something. read moreAye, I think nicknames like these are just too generic and maybe even objectifying or something.

Hahah I'm so sorry for that! I know everyone feels different over this 😛
Thank you for the appreciation here as well 😊

I hope you can take my review without blocking me - haha - This one - I think it's about respect and not making one feel uncomfortable or belittled.
If someone asks you to call them a term of endearment though then we should.
I agree on your suspicion that the introvert called this one Yumna. Unique piece.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I hope you take on this comment without blocking me, TJ 😂😂
I agree with you! That's exactly my point 😛
Thank you for your thoughts here, Tony! Always appreciated 😊

It's great! I've thought this myself at times :) I.I.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I'm glad you can relate. Thank you so much 😊

[Isabella Ivy]

Sure! Blessings to you dear poetess :) I.I.

An interesting bi-polar use of a common theme. Short, sweet, to the point. I especially like the closing, "Why don't you?" Sort of: 'a phrase out of sync. a plea don't you think?' Or am I reading too much into it?
Any way - well done!

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I think it's more like exasperated tone here, not plea.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it 😊

I had to laugh a bit while reading this because it reminded me of a past me.

I've never liked people calling me nicknames and such, either but after a while I learned to accept that it was a way to show their love for you, love in various, also friendship ways.

But I still don't like the people who barely know you and keep on calling you honey etc, a very superficial way to connect, almost disrespectful to me bit I also had to learn that in some cultures it's apparently just normal..

You see, many perspectives, as always ;)

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I feel the same! It seems so awkward to be called like that lol I prefer names. A much better way to connect.

I'm glad this made you laugh. And thank you for sharing your thoughts here, V!

P.S is calling you 'V' okay lol jk 😂😂😂

[V]

Yes, it is. I actually like that ;) You're welcome x

[Ardra]
