Depending on if you are on the receiving end or not, those little nicknames couples give each other can either be one of the sweetest or most obnoxious things in relationships.  Terms of endearment are the best non-political, example of the double standard.  I find myself gagging when i overhear a "sugar lips" or a   "darling." And people come up with the weirdest shit for each other and justify it as sentimental.  NO!  You cannot call your girlfriend your "lobster" and get away with it.  There have to be at least a thousand variations on "bear" and "baby" alone.  What happens if you get stuck with one of those terrible names i.e. pooh bear, how do you get rid of it?  Does the relationship have to end in order to unattach yourself from it?  Another question:  when applying for a government job, or a loan, and they ask you if you've ever assumed any aliases... does "schnookums" count?  I

had a boyfriend who was such an arrogant son of a bitch that he called himself, "snugglesaurus."  We ended badly after i told him to learn his shapes and graduate kindergarten.  Pet names don't count so much if you don't really care about the person.  Someone told me once that they thought pet names were there just to show off their relationship.  That's probably true.  And even though it gives me a cold sweat to hear other people kissy-face, nothing is quite like when my very significant other calls me his baby, honey, sexy, angel, etc...
