We are in talking phase. Not sure why any pet name would be appropriate at this stage.

Ultimately it’s like fine...that you use the words but typically they are “straight” + friends only dominated slang terms so I think that’s why some guys are opposed to it

Many with kids live on the same street as their ex wives so they can be close to their child. I'm not comfortable dating guys like that.
