The expression Hello,love.

The expression , "Hello, love." Do you see it as an endearing expression? Who do your reserve it for? What are your overall thoughts of this expression and when do you believe it should be used, and for who?
I use it as a means of endearment, and for friends I truly care about. My BF doesn't understand it....lol. But I use it for both female and males when I say , "Hello." To me it's a sign of them being in my close circle, almost like family. I don't use it with everyone, just two friends of mine who I truly consider an extension of my family.
I say it a lot along with "hi hun" "hey sweet"
Yes I find it endearing I love it when an older lady calls me darling or sweetheart or greets me with a "ello luv" it always warms the heart.
Do you believe for some people it can be a conflicting expression, especially if they tend to reserve words like "love." Or "hon." in romantic relationships or endeavors?

I highly dislike expressions of endearment from people I don't know or care about. For example, one of my colleagues at work, who is also younger than me, calls me "honey", and it's cringe-inducing every time.
A male collegue calls me, "Boo", but I find it amuses me more than rubbing me the wrong way. I'm not sure why he's an exception, but he does have a whimsical personality.
I once greeted my mailman to have him respond with, "Good morning, sweetheart!" I could feel myself wincing.
If I don't know you like that, and we aren't family or very close friends, I resent it being called any of those things, regardless of whether or not the person throws it around casually.
I call my kid bros, "sweetheart", "cutie pie", "cutie patiootie", "handsome", among other pet names. ???
I called my virgo, "my love", during very specific moments, not as a pet name. I had a special pet name I referred to him by that was unique to him.
I had a girlfriend who called me 'girl!' As in, "Hi, girl!" That also annoyed me. She wasn't a very close friend.
My virgal best friend called me "my love." The first time I heard it, my ears perked up, and I contemplated how I felt about it. I decided I didn't mind, after all.
I prefer to be called by my name, or 'miss' or 'ms.' or 'ma'am.'



I feel the same way; my mail friend actually called me the other day and said "Ello, love." It made me laugh, and I said it back. We are pretty close now so it doesn't bother me. We also say "Hello, mate." Or now we say , "Ello, dear."
However, it doesn't bother at all for the simple fact that he's very dear to me, and he's like family. I also call my best female friend from three years "Hello, my love." And she says it back.
Strangers saying it to me or me to them would be off for me. With close friends, it just comes natural to me.
I'm not the type to use terms of endearment for everyone and anyone. I tell one of my friends that I love her but the exact phrase in question I would only use for a significant other.

Anyone who throws the word love around freely is not to be taken serious.

I don't think that's true; there are different levels of love that you can have for people without thinking in terms of romantics. To me, in my opinion you can express love to family, and friends. Love is but a word, what matters most to me is the actions that are put forth.
So to greet someone with the term , "Hello, love." To me isn't that big of a deal(of course I use it for only two friends in my life) if others use it in a caring or humanitary nature. To me this doesn't mean that person can't be taken seriously when they are truly in love with someone. If that persons actions towards their loved one is louder then the word "Love." and it clearly is shown, then that's all that matters. Doesn't matter how many times they use te expression "Hello, love." With others.

Hi BS, how are you? smile
I usually do save it as an endearment for my family/close friends. I accidentally used it with a male co-worker and he took it the wrong way. We used to work closely together and kidded around a lot. I had to backpedal out of that one :- $
