Dear Guys Who Use Pet Names,
Pet names are only acceptable after the following date ranges:
1 day – 1 week: nothing but your name or nickname that your friends use
1 week – 3 weeks: hunn, sweetie, darlin'
3 weeks – 1.5 months: baby, princess
1.5 months and on: Almost anything is game.  This includes sexual names and joking funny names.
NEVER under any circumstance is the phrase "my love" acceptable.  If you are old and rich and I am 29 without a man…I may consider "my love" as we are both running out of time to find acceptable mates.  
Also, calling a girl "bug" is NOT a turn on.  "Aww bug."  "My love bug."  "Bug, whatcha doing?"  A bug is neither cute nor feminine.  I mean, seriously, where do guys come up with this shit?
I'm buggin',
Em

i have to disagree with you. my boyfriend calls me his "love". i realize it's extremely outdated but it works for some people.
sorry, but when a guy says that to me I vomit a bit in my mouth...i guess it just depends
LOL it's cool dude - honestly, i think that it depends on your past experience with a pet name, too. i've never had anybody else call me that, so i never had any reason to think badly of it. but yeah ... pet names are tricky. :)
