Many of us use a different word while addressing or calling the life partner. Some call by name and some uses a different lovable word to call his or her wife or husband. I have a special word to call my wife. How about you.... Thank you.

I call my husband honey, dear, sweetheart, all the typical pet names. My husband calls me the same names. I love it when we use our little pet names. It gives us a sense of what we feel towards each other.

I know how you feel, I am the same way. I am not sure if this had happened to you, but yesterday I had seen a friend of mine who I had not seen in a while. I had introduced her to my husband and for some reason I had a brain freeze and could not remember what my husband's name is and said Vanessa this is my husband Bear Cub (of course his given name is Randy). Now, that I think about it, it's fuuny, but at the time I felt bad.

We also address each other in a common word. This gives both of us a feeling that we are in good mood. When i call my wife her name, she understands that i am not fine or i am worried for something. Have a great day.

Hi. My husband and I call each other "Tsuwa." We have extracted that name from a Filipino word "pangit" or "tsuwangit" meaning "ugly." Haha, that's our term of endearment for almost eight years now.
