i don’t mind babe but it truly depends on the way it’s said. if it’s said cheery then i’m like yeah cute! if it’s more casual or deadpan and i don’t know you i’m like :/

I have a friend that calls people babe and with her it doesn’t bother me. I think when it’s in a person’s regular vocabulary (and I know them), at that point I don’t see it as condescending… just a thing they say
