i'm clearly not an infant. please get glasses.

I don't understand why people call other people "baby".
I get that it's a form of endearment. I do.

But out of all the words out there, can you find a better metaphor to describe me?
Because I really don't appreciate being compared to a pudgy infant that burps milk.
It gives my ego a beating. 

Babies aren't attractive.
They're cute in the oh look how fat his cheek is kind of way.
And I do hope that you're not friends with me because of the size of my cheeks.

Haha, I don't call people baby. It sounds weird when I say it. I say babe, but that's EXTREMELY rare. Like a few times a year. XD

Hahahaha pudgy infant that burps milk. Gross.

My boyfriend calls me "bb" occasionally. Which I don't mind cause it's cuter than "baby". I just find it awkward to call anyone "baby"..

I couldn't live with myself if I started calling someone baby, I can't stand the use of that word on anyone who isn't a baby!
