It’s now been a few times where an older adult (maybe 50+ years old) has called me “endearing”, i always associated this term with children, but i am fully grown adult. Is there something i’m doing wrong? Why are people using a term for children for adults?
Edit: ok thanks everyone, apparently there’s a misunderstanding on my part and this word can be used for adults
Are you a woman or perceived as a woman? That could do it
are women often referred to as “endearing”? i’d always thought this was a term people use for small kids
They can be by people a generation or two older than them.
Weird. I always heard of it as someone you just immediately like. It’s strange how the same word can have such totally different meanings to people
