Im gonna start greeting people like this.

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.'

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