I'm also asking because when I first started talking to someone, he'd always call me "beautiful". I hate when they call me that after first meeting me. It's just unoriginal. But when he did it, it felt different...because I know he's extremely selective.

I've been really emotionally expressive with him these past couple of days. Which is completely out of character for a Cap, and me, as an individual. We just don't do that shit in the early stages even if we do feel something. But...I'm throwing caution to the wind, because life is too fucking short not to express your feelings.

So, I noticed since becoming more emotionally expressive, he calls me "baby" now. He's super guarded, so...I don't know if this is progress...or he just wanted to switch it up.

I notice this whole pet name thing when first talking with guys...to me it's weird. Pet names to me are more for when a relationship has been established. When someone calls me one....I automatically think they actually dont remember my name and it's easier to call a chick something generic then get the name wrong 🤷.

I'm more surprised when they say my name but not too much...too much to me is condescending.

With that being said...the Sag would call me baby which I hated, the Scorp called me sweetie...meh. the Leo has actually used my name and on occasion...like a slip up, called me babe..which was more endearing because after saying it ...he had the deer caught in headlights look lol.

before we were ever together i called my ex angel / doux ange

bcause he is one...so misunderstood by everyone

but sacred & blameless to me

i used belle âme for him only

which is french for beautiful soul

and when we together we also called

each other with nicknames from when we were young

(his idea)

his family calls him pikachu bcus when he was little he sometimes

drinked perfume without his parents knowing & when he did, his cheeks would turn red

and bcus i am so soft spoken...to the point where ppl can barely hear me even if they r sitting next to me :' ( one day a friend of my gma pointed out that i was very gentle & quiet in play and she said i remind her of a mouse so she told me to "be brave mousy" & its what my family calls me

so mousy & pikachu were our endearing names =)

+ more

... i give everyone terms of endearment

but

they all have

their own elevated

& noble (or silly) sentiments/origin


I love this. 💚
