My parents call each other by their first names only and sometimes ina adeer. My parents show their affection to each other by making fun of each other.

When you get married right, would you let your wife call you baby and sweety in front of other ppl?
I would, but I'd tell her not to say that shit in front of my father and my two grandparents, they would think she's stupid.

Lol this topic reminds me of a lot people I know. I personally can't stand when they go like macanto/Albi infront of me, lalabo. What i dont get is don't they really know that others feel embarrassed to be there..?
