My dh and I seem to kind of have our own little langauge that we communicate in. We say "nub boo" instead of "I love you" and at night we go "neep" instead of "to sleep". We also have this crazy little high-pitched voice that we use when we talk about anything really stupid or ironic. (we are imitating a neighbor that we used to have that was incredibly stupid).
Occasionally, I will tell someone that I am tired and can't wait to go home and go "neep" and they give me a look like I just stepped off the mothership. It occurrs to me, I guess, that other people don't talk this way. LOL
Do any of you have strange little vocabularies when talking with your sweetie? Little inside jokes, maybe that only the two of you would find amusing or meaningful or silly words that mean something only to you?
Just looking for some reassurance that I am semi-normal LOL

Sure. It my case the words were usually either foreign or blends of languages. The idea behind some of them was having our little secrets when talking in front of other people.

Well, that depends... If you consider me semi-normal, then you are, too!
me either, baby talk makes me gag, speaking it or hearing it
between adults it is really (to me) creepy. But to each their own, if you both enjoy it, go it for it, whatever floats your boat
i never even used it with my kids because to me it has absolutely no dignity whatsoever, for either the speaker or the listener
pet names for a sweetheart are one thing, they are private and sweet
but baby talk? no way
(Note: children that don't hear baby talk, are more articulate and have larger vocabularies when they do begin to speak)

Yes, I used to call my ex-boyfriend "Mr. Babies."
But then one night at an office party, I called him that too many times in front of his boss and coworkers and it was all downhill from there. When he returned to work on Monday, the entire office, including his subordinates, were snickering and calling him "Mr. Babies."
It got really carried away. They kept leaving things in his office like nappies and pacifiers and milk formula. My boyfriend was so humiliated he finally had to put in his resignation. He no longer felt like a man anymore and now he had no job. It led to performance problems in the bedroom, and finally, the end of our relationship.
Ho, ho, ho. Anyhow, Kids of the City-Data forum, that's enough story telling for tonight. Time for me to go neep-neep.

I'm sorry, but that's quite childish and dumb. To be honest, I'd drop you right there if I were your BF. What you say in private and what you say at an office party are two entirely different animals.
