Cup your hand gently under his testes, grip tightly, swivel wrist so that hand turns knuckles upward, drive hand forcefully downward until heel of hand strikes the floor, and say sweetly "Please don't call me that again, or I shall get annoyed with you"Originally posted by SandyDown View PostSerious question, how do I gently get my PM to stop calling me My love and sweetheart, my blood boils every time he says that.

Thing is if he was calling everyone sweetheart/my love I wouldn't care and I'd think its just him, but he only addresses me like this... I know I sound as if I am making a big deal out of nothing, but I am really really uncomfortable with him calling me this.

Roughly how old is he? Your response to him will have to be different depending on whether he is the older generation who don't really know any better, or the younger generation who should.Comment
