Time To Defeat The Hun

(My boyfriend and I are cuddling on the couch and talking about our pet names for each other.)

Me: “So we typically use dear, darling, babe, love…”

Boyfriend: “Doofus and dorkface.”

Me: *laughs* “Absolutely.”

Boyfriend: “Hmm… we don’t really use sweetie or hun, do we?”

Me: “No, but I’m fine avoiding that one. My ex used to call me that, but even after we broke up he’d keep calling me that. I told him it made me uncomfortable, but he’d just say, ‘Oh, I call all girls that’ which obviously made it soooo much better.”
