I Have a Secret

I think it is an old fashioned term but very acceptable if you and your future husband like the term. I kind of like it too.

I've never used it but that's gentleman talk right there

Its not a word so commonly used anymore
When I call my lady friends (who I know are 100% ladies )"dear" .its is meant with 100% respect ,,Like dear Sir or Madam
That was also a commonly use term when I was growing up
But now days I find more and more women telling me not to use that disrespectful word with them ,and when I explain it was not meant as disrespect at all ,"don't give me that southern gentlemen crap ,I know condescending when I hear it"
Now lady what you hear is your a nut ,that does not know shit from shihola ,,,another phrase not used anymore

The womans lib movements and feminist has ruined more the the words we used to use affectionately

all I wish is to be called love like those men in British novels do

Love pet names of all kinds. 💕

@BeefySenpie calls me darling🤭

ummm lol I used to say it as a joke or to be sarcastic then I said it so often that it would come out every now even when I wasn't just joking about haha! so 1 young person at least

I could see myself calling my significant other darling I have a taste for class and respect

What ever is right for you is good not creepy or sarcastic at all.
