Hello darlin'

hello

this is sanyuaung, boyfriend of xxxxxx

what makes u think u can call my girl darling?

This is only today's most interesting one among the loads of facebook emails, Amazon transactions, KLM offer and some junk mails. A bit confusing. Someone claimed he is boyfriend of her. But what she said before was that she had a fiancé. Is this different person? Same person demoted from fiancé to boy friend?

This is the story. Lately, I got an online friend. She is a professional lady working somewhere in England. Normally, I don't communicate with too many people. She looked nice and decent to me. I treated her as a mature lady with respect and clear mind as she said she had a fiancé. Sometime we emailed. Yesterday, yes, it happened yesterday evening. I felt bored, maybe she too. We emailed to-and-fro, talking about films and eating. Here is part of our talk.

Me: btw, i am eating now with chicken , photo attached :)


She: ၾကြားလုိက္တာ..
စားျပီးၿပီ
ငါးရယ္၊ ခရန္းခ်ဥ္သီးခ်က္ရယ္
အီစကုိလဲ ဟင္းခ်က္တတ္ပါတယ္

Me: mine better. rice is special. cooked with butter, peas, cashew, one sugar

She: ၾကက္သားကင္တာ ေတာ္လုိက္တာ
ဘာအေရာင္မွ မထြက္ဘူး
(အဲ့ဒါ ရြဲ႕ေျပာတာေနာ္)

Me: har har. coloring is child play. what color do you like? yellow, red , orange, green., blue? I have everything

She: you put sugar in everything!
and i meant food colouring as in flavour..
sigh
you need a wife
you still cant cook properly after living abroad for so long
:P

Me: sorry darling. now finished, no more left 4u, see the tray. too much delicious and finished quickly coz very expert in this business, no wife required

the color is phone camera setting was on something else.



She: i'm not strike, don't call me darling :P

Me: darling is what i called tesco cashier old ladies. of course, you are not old enough.

We continued ........!£$%^&

If you read through above, you may notice I was boasting in funny way and we insulted softly each other. Nothing concern with romantic or no evidence of crossing the line at all. Yes, I called her as darling at one point. It did not mean I was saying she was my love or something similar. I tried to exaggerate my speed of eating as I finished 5 chicken wings in just over 10 mins :)

Well, regarding usage of darling, yes, most commonly it is used among the couples/ lovers.

I did check with Cambridge dictionary (Link is here)

Definition

darling
noun [C]
a person who is greatly loved or liked:

NOTE: This is used as a form of address between people who love each other and people who are being friendly. As a friendly form of address it is not usually used between men. (of course, I can't call strike darling, sorry strike :) )

What a coincidence. Today, I was at my fav fish and chip shop in east London. The waitress brought what I ordered, saying " Haddock darling"

Yes, in London, taxi drivers may say " do you want me to wait here, darling" . Tesco and Asda cashiers offer in their some stores " Do you need help packing, darling?" . At work, I would request to a nurse in polite way " Darling, could you do me a great favour?"

I think this is enough about "darling". I thought early today I would not have any issue to post on my blog. I have been lucky enough :)

By the way, enjoy Hello darl'
