Did you ever call the recent Boyfriend/girl~ by the name of the old one?

[ffm172]

it happened to me this weekend. I was so embarrased by it. I am together with my now boyfriend almost a year and it never happened so far. My bf wasn't too happy about it of course but didn't get too upset.

[MADem]

1. Call them all honey and you'll stay out of trouble!!! n/t

[ffm172]

2. most time I do

but we were in a conversation with my mom and I made a comment and slipped. I felt so bad.

[MADem]

4. Ooops...least it wasn't HIS mom, that would have been worse! n/t

[Spinzonner]

3. It's his fault for not changing his name

Or yours for being so promiscuous about the names of your boyfriends.

[ffm172]

5. I am glad that it was only the name of my ex bf he knew about

since I had some other guys in between, which I can't really call bf and who he doesn't know about it would have been worse

[China_cat]

6. No, but I did call

my current husband by the name of my favorite ex.

[ffm172]

8. how did he react?

my mom called her bf by the name of my dad more than once. He is used to it by now.

And why are such things happening?

[China_cat]

28. He was so cool about it

tried to pretend that it didn't happen. At that time he hadn't met the ex whose name I used.

Later, after he did, he confessed that he was hurt at the time but now understood why I would always have a soft spot for that one.

And when that ex died, my current actually said "I'm so sorry" when I told him.

7. not in the beginning

but as time passed ... I can remember - more than once - calling a bf by the wrong name.

I've since solved my problem remembering names ~ everybody is sweetie ~ although some are *Sweetie!!!* :evilgrin: ;)

[ffm172]

9. I call my bf "sexy" most of the time

but it happened anyway.

Hi, how are you doing today? :hi: How was your weekend?

[Freebird12004]

11. I slept 10 hours last night.

I seem to be tired all of the time and I'm pissed off about it! I took my blood pressure several times over the weekend and drank only decaf instead of regular coffee because my blood pressure is too high.

:hi: Calling the bf "sexy" doesn't work when you're out to dinner with the fam. Try * Dear* or *honey* instead.

[ffm172]

13. I call him that too

at least "dear". Honey not so often. And he IS sexy, everybody can see it :) Or "sweetie". And my mom is cool with me calling him "sexy". But I might have to call him differently when I meet his family (whenever that will be)

I don't drink coffee at all. Prefer tea.

[Freebird12004]

16. *warning* tea has caffeine too

:grr: It's not the coffee that is giving me fits. :mad: Almost everything that I really enjoy has caffeine - like chocolate or Coke or :cry: chocolate ice cream :cry:

[ffm172]

17. I know it does

so did it help you to switch to decaf?

[Freebird12004]

22. 150/103 this morning

so the switch hasn't helped yet.

[ffm172]

25. maybe you need to take a ride with your bike to calm down

is that an idea?

[Freebird12004]

36. IT isn't ready yet!!!

and perhaps that's part of my high blood pressure problem.
:grr:It was supposed to go back to the shop where I purchased it today. It has 16,500 miles on it. I want the pre-season service job done early. I put more miles on my Trike after getting it last August than my friend put on her Harley in the past year and a half. Next week the daytime high temperatures will be in the 50's. I'm threating to bubble wrap it and ride anyway.

[ffm172]

37. sorry to hear

but I rather would want you to wait till it is done than risk anything.

[Freebird12004]

38. me too

She ran into a problem getting the quills on the feathers to look right so that's the delay. The feathers are perfect and I think we've figured out the quill problem but it still needs to be finished, clear-coated and buffed out before it's ready for me to go riding down the road. So, I'm waiting:shrug:
I like going for long peaceful rides alone on the trike. It's like when I used to go sailing alone but going for a long drive in the car doesn't have the same effect.

[ffm172]

39. how long did she say it will take to get it ready?

[Freebird12004]

43. if there are no more snags - by the end of this week

She is off from work for the next few days and she is just as upset as I am that it's not already done.

We are taking her Sportster over to Harley tomorrow and picking up her new V-Rod very soon. She had wanted to take her first V-Rod ride with my Goldwing near by.... something about "Screaming Eagle Pipes chasing Bumble Bees".

[ffm172]

45. good luck

and tell me how your fist ride this year was.

[Freebird12004]

48. I'm looking forward to it.

It won't be a long one because I need a few rides to get my muscles back into shape after a winter of doing nothing.

[ffm172]

49. I am sure you will enjoy just sitting on your trike again

[Freebird12004]

52. HaHaHa I do that now !

I've had more than one :beer: sitting on my trike in the garage. In fact ~ I think I'll go :hug: it now for a thrill.

[ffm172]

53. LOL

[Freebird12004]

55. Screaming Eagle Pipes chasing Bumble Bees

happened one afternoon at a red light when my friend's Screaming Eagle Exhaust Pipes set off the alarm on a parked car :shrug: who knew they could do that O8)

[Moosepoop]

10. Done it twice now

I've called my husband by my ex's name. He was, shall we say, supremely unimpressed both times.

[Freebird12004]

14. Good one! *supremely unimpressed*

I'll remember to use that phrase to break the tension next time I screw up about something ... which ... BTW almost never happens. lol

[Magrittes Pipe]

12. Not at any indelicate moments.

But occasionally, sure.

Of course, my girlfriend calls me by the dog's name. :eyes:

[ffm172]

15. fortunately in very private moments I still call him by his name

so it seems like it really is a women's thing to call our SO by other names. Wonder why.

[xmas74]

18. Many of them had the same, rather common name.

I could call them by someone else's name and they wouldn't know the difference.

[ffm172]

19. lucky you

and :hi:

how was your weekend?

[xmas74]

21. I am tired. Couldn't get on last night.

Trying to make the monster get ready for school.

BTW-not kidding. Most of them were named David. I could think of someone else and just say David-they never knew the difference.

[ffm172]

24. did you pick your guys after the name?

just kidding. But it is funny that most of them had the same name. I think all the guys I was together with had different names.

[xmas74]

26. Just a common name.

I don't know-karma maybe?

[ffm172]

27. maybe the next one shouldn't be named David

might help :)

I just was so embarrased by it. I am really glad he let it drop after a minute or though.

[xmas74]

30. That is the plan.

No more Davids!
Strange thing-I tried the internet dating-put up the profile and all. Every single guy who replied was named-not kidding-David.

[ffm172]

33. LOL

do you have it written on you?? ATTENTION DAVID's, please reply to me!! LOL Maybe you should put in your profile also "If your name is David, don't bother to write me"

[xmas74]

34. But doesn't that seem rude?

[ffm172]

35. maybe but you made bad experiences with this name

it is your choice after all.

[xmas74]

40. But I am positive that there are some perfectly

lovely men out there w/ the name David. Maybe not in Missouri, but somewhere.

[ffm172]

41. the one son of my guest father in NC was called David

when I was a nanny in that family I had problems with him (he is about 10 years older than I am I think). Last couple of times I was there visiting it went OK.

[xmas74]

42. The last one felt that he had something to prove.

The others just cheated-in front of me-and expected me to accept it.

[ffm172]

44. jerks!

but of course if you would have cheated on them it would have been not ok. Talk about double standard :eyes:

[xmas74]

46. Very much so!

[ffm172]

47. oh I got an answer by the Admins about your thread

"robbing the craddle". It violated the sex rules

[xmas74]

54. Great.

[jonnyblitz]

20. blurting out the wrong name at the point of orgasm is never good.

:eyes:

[ffm172]

23. it wasn't at that time

and I can assure you that that will not happen because the ex sucked in that field (in others also).

[jonnyblitz]

29. LOL...oh i didnt mean to imply this is what happened to you...

your post just made me think of something. :P

[ffm172]

31. so you did

oh god, that really IS an horror. How did your partner react to that? I bet you were in trouble ...

[jonnyblitz]

32. oh it wasnt me.

somebody i know. their partner wasnt too pleased.

[Champ]

50. Hmm

Makes me wonder why my ex only said "Oh babe!" during that point :shrug:

[ffm172]

51. take a guess

:)

[purr]

56. I do..

I call my husband my ex all the time, but lucky for me, my sons name is the same as my ex so I play it off and he doesnt notice a thing.

[SarahB]

57. Nope.

However, about a year or so ago I managed to often shout the name out of a man I was interested in my sleep to the dude who was still very much my husband. Only my unconscious mind is dangerous. The rest of the time I am entirely too logical and sensible about this stuff.

[Freebird12004]

59. musta been a wonderful dream

:think:

[Bouncy Ball]

58. I had a boyfriend once who called me "Lisa" in the middle of "things"

and once my husband was sleeping and kept talking in his sleep to someone named "Sheila." He kept saying "Shhhh, trust me!" and then giggling and saying "Sheila."

He was SMILING, too. Must have been a nice dream. We had only been married about a month, so I kicked him hard.

Nowdays, I would just watch him and laugh and make fun of him the next day.
