I grew up with my auntie and she called me ‘baby’ rather than Pete. Now I wonder if this was because I wore diapers and plastic pants like a baby or just out of love?
Did you have a similar experience?
Not exactly, but my sister called me ‘baby’ when I was younger because I was small for my age, did not pronounce my rs very well (and sometimes still don’t), trained late, and had the occasional accident (both kinds).

So do you think it was because you were small or due to you having accidents?

Probably some of each.

I have a weird relationship revolving around my family and intimacy/terms of endearment. My grandma was the only one I ever felt comfortable with calling me names like ‘Honey’. That was it.
However, there is a void there and I do enjoy when maternal women refer to me as sweetie, hun, or sweetheart. It makes me get that small bubble of feeling little when they do. Haven’t gotten baby yet, as that seems a bit more playfully romantic where I’m from. Probably would have an adverse effect on me.

And did it bother you?
In my case it was as it was and I wasn’t really bothered. I liked it thou when we cuddled and she called me her baby but usually it was just like my nick name. While thinking about it now I believe she might have used it as my nick name but in occasions like when I got diapered it was more referring to me like being still a baby that needs help from his mom. I have motorical issues due to nerve damages and needed always help.
My grandma calling me honey? No I preferred it. She was the only family member I could feel comfortable having affection from. I got it from my mom and dad but that dropped off as I grew up. my dad stopped being affectionate around 10 years old and my mom and I had a VERY strained relationship from 12/13 years old onward. We are very cold to each other now beyond mother’s day and birthdays. And my dad is passed away.
could be that the idea of being a baby thats still before your toilet training gave here the confidence to call you Baby.
I was definitely called “baby” when I was growing up. Not only due to having accidents and needing to wear diapers, plastic panties, and training pants, but also just in a teasing manner. Especially from my brothers who teased me all the time. With my parents, the “baby” term was referred to more from their disappointment or frustration with me and not from endearment unfortunately.

I dunno I hate it when my family calls me terms of endearment, because they are toxic abusive assholes, who only say those terms to get something out of me.
But when women call me “sweetie” or “honey” i get very very red, one time at a restaurant the waitress calls me “sweetie” and when I say I became a puddle I became a puddle, she was a whole adult woman (lol I am too but I am 18), my partner thought it was very funny kept calling me “so gay” throughout the night lol dont worry its a joke between us.
In regard to my AB side, i love it when my friends call me “a big baby” lol its fun and makes me feel little even tho something ITS FLIPPIN RIDONKULOUS, just because I am a picky eater who wanted Popsicle that was pink and only pink ,doesnt make me a “brat”
IF YA KNOW YA KNOW who you are lmao
thats all I can really say LMAO XD

Sorry but not sure what you mean. I can only guess that she called me Baby because she loved me so much but also because I needed diapers like a baby. Maybe she used it in both ways.
That is sad to hear. I can’t remember or at least I never had the impression that my auntie was disappointed or so. Maybe a bit teasing yes but more in a loving way.
for sure it comes from love! and it sounds like she loves you a lot!
i meant that because your in real still a Baby with nappies, the idea of calling you Baby came along.
(i hope you dont mind me Saying to you that you still a Baby with nappies. i only mean in a good way)
Thank you. No I’m not upset. I often feel like a baby and it doesn’t bother me.

Yes I’m new to this site and all. I’m still trying to find out how things work. Thank you for offering your help with that. It sounds interesting that you are sometimes the little one and sometimes the carer. Without realising I was always the little one till my mid twenties. I grew up with my auntie and she cared for me and I had suddenly to grow up when she passed away. That was the hardest thing for me having to stand on my own feet and making decisions and being the big one from now on.
I often think of her and every time I have to make a decision I ask myself what would she has done. I miss her still and wished she would still be around me.
Sorry to hear that.
I know that Adulting is hard and you are doing well acknowledging your little side.
Just give your self time and space . And you find that you will slowly grow in many different ways.
Your auntie will always be a part of you.
But have Little space time, time yust for you will help loads.
Big hugs

Living in the South (U. S.), it’s not unusual for a female sales clerk to call a male customer baby. I’ve had it happen to me a number of times and of course I like it…haha.
