Today someone called me "babydoll" and "sweetheart" within a matter of a few seconds. I don't know why this bothers me so much, but my skin crawls and my eyes instantly roll at such ridiculousness. Maybe because people who use these fluffy phrases are usually the last people on the planet that I want to be calling me by these names.
Now, deep down, I know they are usually just trying to be nice...or build some emotional connection with me...but why does it feel so condescending?
Thoughts?

it irritates me as well...mostly because i usually don't know the person and therefore don't believe such words are necessary.
