Excuse me, darlin'

[Randy]

How do you feel about random strangers calling you pet names? (Honey, Hun, Babe, etc...)

 

[Vivian]

Oh hun, I dont mind it all darlin'

 

[Kasynlie]

It depends on who says it. If some 60 year old man calls me Honey or Sweetie, then it's kinda creepy.

 

[Raven]

I hate those kind of names anyway, so when a stranger does it, it really gets on my nerves.

 

[Jazzy]

I don't like it and find it kind of creepy.

 

[hotspot]

where's the I couldn't care less Option?

 

[Nebulous]

I like it and think it's sweet.

 

[Corleone]

It depends on what type of person says it. If my mom, teacher, or family or whatever say it, it's okay I guess, but if a stranger calls me honey or baby, I'm freaked out and probably should call 911.

 

[MysticSky]

I dont really care ^.^



Let them call me what they want to, doesnt matter to me.

[Nelliel]

I like it and I do it too XD Though I run across the random person that thinks I'm implying something on another level...... *runs*

So, I'm feeling like this poll was directed at me.....

This is something I do all the time. It's mostly hon, though.....

Restaurants, gas stations, bank, grocery, Wal-mart...doesn't matter, thanks hon, have a good day--or something like that......

I like it and I do it...I'm just used to it...we call it Southern hospitality.

 

[The Dragon Master]

I like it, I tink it's sweet

 

[Crys]

I don't like it especially hun.

 

[passenger]

It's cute sometimes; except if it's someone who intuitively gives me the 'creeps'.

 

[Dee]

I said it depends on the person. One of the new employees we're training is an older woman and she called me sweetheart and I just about squee'd.

 

[freakofnature]

It kind of depends on the person/situation but for the most part I find it annoying.

 

[safeinsanity]

I like it! 😊

 

[Coo]

Definitely depends on the circumstances as sometimes it can be used in a condescending way.

You don't have to go very far into the Confederate States of America to get "hon"ed.

This is true. Older women waitresses in their mid to late 40's have called me "honey" when waiting on me.

That and "sugar" except it is pronounced "shoo-gah".

 

[ElegantAura]

I'm okay with it. It is just a matter of how some people express themselves.

In today's world, many seem overly sensitive, but personally, I don't use that phrases. It's not a phrase that comes naturally to me, it might sound weird if I try it.
I've noticed older women than me frequently use it here.

Whatever floats your beacons, darling....
