While visiting elder relatives or native place I always say aaho (आहो, ऐकलेत का..) but when we are all by oursleves i call him by his first name. This reminds me my grandpa used to call his wife my grandmom as aho Shakuntala la bai (अहो शकुंतला बाई..) even he used to address us (my mom, me and my sis) as aaho bai..
Interesting but though you desired FB ONLY from lady members yet I presume participation by male members in the thread would be welcomed. Depending on the situation or more correctly gravity of the situation the so called endearing terms such as “Honey, Darling, Pinky, Rosy etc...” uttered with voice modulation to reflect the mood(s). When I forget, her first reminder would address me as “Mr”. Second reminder a sterner “Mr” uttered with “r”slurred. Third reminder would be strongly uttered acrimoniously as “ Mr Thyagarajan”. She would never utter in any moment honey or darling but in the good olden days when she wrote billet-doux yes those words she wrote in almost every sentence. Those are the days hummmmmm. From my side I use the endearing terms to her as often as possible so that life would go on even keel plus timely food! I am frank and honest - you know!!! Thanks and Regards. God Bless Us All Always.
My husband never calls me by my name he always says aaho it's like suniye ji and I do the same all the time,,but there was a time when we would call each other"shonya". When his parent would come or we go there I accidentally have called him shonya and saw him with smile..Now with kid I don't neither does he but I miss being called that ...
You should not stop because of the kids. When kids see parents talking lovingly,they get a positive view about their parents relationship.It makes them feel secure. Try it againDon,'t be shy The cutie pie was given by shonya ,not aaho!
Sasur ka beta when he grumbles about helping in the kitchen Amma ka Laadla when he enters the kitchen And Shona when he is actually cooking ! Just joking !
Well he wants me to call me traditionally Emandi in Telugu . But I’m little uncomfortable by addressing him like tat ! But I will call him by his name itself . Wen I talk about him to in laws I will not call his name . But I tell his name wen I speak to my family .
And may be it's just not my kid but also the arguments bcz of inlaws I guess we just stopped .. That's true.. I should call him that .. will start from today.. Thanks dear..
Yeah actually kids get all the attention. If my DH even comes near me to talk something ( now a days it is usually the million dollar question, theri account mein kitna pada hey???) my DD comes running and says, " NOOOO dont go near my mother. Amma, dont worry I will protect you from DAD "
