From the right person, it's totally cute.

I don't think I've ever called anyone that with any sincerity, though.

Other than a boyfriend, the only other person I ever call baby is my cousin's daughter. I wouldn't call anyone else that lol

I rarely if even call anyone that. I really don't like it when someone other than my fiance calls me that. It sort of creeps me out when strangers say it to me.

I get called Babydoll all the time by someone who is much younger than me. I don't mind, he is lovely and doesn't mean anything bad by it.

I get spells where I call everyone Hon or Honey. I just catch myself doing it.

I find people are usually more pleasant to you if you call them 'baby' rather than a 'cunt'.

most ppl get darling from me

even customers at work lol

great 4 when my brain is on the blink lol

better than being called madam by some kid barely out of diapers - sounds like the owner of a brothel to me pissed
ive actually heard women in stores say to the checkout operator- do i look like i run a brothel to u? i would never do that to the poor kids (coz thats usually what they r) i know what its like to be on that side of the counter- it doesnt stop me from being angry on the inside tho
all they need to say is - how are u today- not add madam at the end rolleyes



and b4 i get bricks hurled at me, i do know madam has a few definitions
madam
n 1: a woman of refinement [syn: dame, ma'am, lady, gentlewoman]
2: a woman who runs a house of prostitution [syn: brothel
keeper]
seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before music beret

I call my cat "Baby. Sometimes I call my friend's little girl "Baby". I don't know if it's something I'm comfortable with calling a boyfriend. I think it would almost feel forced. My friend has a girlfriend that calls him "Baby" or "Honey" and it's sounds so unnatural, I cringe almost every time I hear it. The only time I think it sounds natural is if it's followed by something else. Like "Baby Cakes" or "Honey Pie". I personally prefer to call people "Sugar" or "Sugar Booger".

I had an ex who called me "Babe-er."

I use "baby" regularly, but almost never in a truly romantic way. I'll off-handedly say "Sup, baby?" to a friend--male or female. I sometimes use the old Jerky Boyism "honey baby" as a joke.
