Random poll: "Babe"

[quesyrah]

I'm on tapatalk so no clicky.

Do you call your SO Babe?
Do they call you Babe?

[quesyrah]

My answer is no to both. And I feel like we are in the far minority amongst people I know IRL

[lala]

Very rarely he will call me that. Maybe back in college we did more often.

[lala]

Oh never in front of people!

[melew]

Every once in a while. We have a lot of nicknames though I suppose. Though I hardly ever use his actual name when we are at home. Unless he is in trouble.

[aggiecyd]

Every once in a while, DH will call me babe. He usually uses the nickname I've had since childhood that only about 5 people use. I'm not a "term of endearment" kinda gal. It caused some friction when we were first dating because he was a real "baby, sweetly, darlin" type guy.
I call him by his first name, unless I'm feeling snarky. Then I call him sweetheart, dripping with sarcasm.

[cabbagecabbage]

I might call him Babe on occasion but it's usually Honey. He calls me Darlin', never Babe.

[gastro]

Never have, never will. It kinda bugs when people do. We do have nicknames for each other but we don't use them in public.

[ashb62]

Not usually. Most of the time we refer to each other as "honey" or "hun."

[cna]

No and no.

[dizzycooks]

Nope nope nope

Very seldomly do we use "babe" with each other.......but I do call Becca babe a lot haha

[notreallyirish]

No and no. We don't do any nicknames at all.

[vettymama]

No and no. I catch myself saying "hun" occasionally but as a couple we don't have nicknames.

[jnksmom]

No and no. We don't really use nicknames for each other.

[Deleted]

Nope and nope.

[momin2013]

Nope and nope. We call each other Sweetie or Hon, usually.

This.

[cna]

I do call DS1 babe. DS2 is bubba.

[minismama]

No no no.

[Kcthepouchh8r]

Dh calls me dear. No, he's not 90. Lol.

[nowa]

Um.... we do. It's a force of habit. I more often call him by his nickname and a couple other terms of endearment, but babe/baby is in the regular rotation. He also calls me babe. I also call my babies babe.

[quesyrah]

FWIW- I'm not judging anyone who does! Just asking

[fintin]

We both call each other babe more than any other name.

[minerswife17]

No and no.

[Katiedid]

Yes to both. We started calling each other babe as a joke because of the SNL skit Two A-holes....and it stuck.

[scattered]

Yes and yes.

[zbeesma86]

Babe is better than bae.

Occasionally. Not all the time.

[herephishyphishy]

He is hun and I am Momma. Not Mama, but Momma. There is a cheesy cheer that goes along with it too.
