Dead-Pet Names
(My boyfriend and I have only been dating for a few months, and being as how I have trust issues and he suffers from social anxiety, we move much slower than other couples.)
Boyfriend: *watching Resident Evil* “So, why do you like zombie movies again?”
Me: “They’re entertaining, babe.”
Boyfriend: *turns to stare at me seeing as how this is the first time we had used pet names* “You called me babe.”
Me: “Yeah.. so?”
Boyfriend: *freaking out as he pauses the movie* “Now I have to call you something cute back or I’m a bad boyfriend.”
Me: “You don’t have to.”
Boyfriend: “It’s like, the rules… honeybun.”
(I crack up laughing.)
Boyfriend: “No? How about, cheesecake?”
(I laugh even more.)
Boyfriend: “Chinchilla?”
(Needless to say, we don’t really use pet names anymore.)
