Weird that MB calls me " cute names"?

It will be 2 months in October with my NF. Both parents are great and MB is a very kind lady. I've noticed she rarely calls me by my name though. She often calls me " sweetheart, dear, darling, or hun". I've never had an employer call me these names. She will say it both in person or call/text/email. The funniest part is I'm 25 and she is 33 so not much of an age difference.
Not complaining but find it odd yet funny. |

| Normal. Some people call everyone honey or dear or sweetie. |

| Too personal for me. When I interview, I make sure that parents know I want to be called by name, and kids call me Miss X. |

| I've had some grandparents call me that and found it odd but at the same time endearing (they all seemed to like me, thank god!), never a MB though. Seems strange for a young person! But I guess if she's treating you right otherwise there's not real harm in it, is there? |

Consider these "terms of endearment" & try not to over-think it.
Just shows that she is a very nice woman who thinks the world of you. The ultimate compliment....For sure. Perhaps she was raised in an area where people use these terms more frequently than they do where you both live at now.

The lady at the grocery store calls me honey. The lady at the post office calls me sweetie.
Odd, yet. But as long as it doesn't get more personal... |
