Those are my terms of endearment......for real, among other things.
Maybe it's a male vs female thing? I don't recall ever hearing a woman use those terms in a pleasant manner. I've actually been slapped a couple times for using terms like that to address a man, granted I was trying to provoke a reaction at the time, so I just don't see me using those to address anyone I actually like. Or maybe it's an age thing, I am older than both you and Drae.
