Not So Sweet Ending

(I am laying in bed with my boyfriend of only a few months, and my stomach starts to growl.)

Boyfriend: “Honey, you’re hungry. Let’s get dressed and I’ll take you to dinner.”

Me: “Okay. And I like “honey”. As old as I am, I’ve never had a pet name before. I’ve never been a ‘baby’, or a ‘honey’.”

Boyfriend: “Oh. Well, I’ve just always called my girlfriends honey.”
