AITA for being jealous of my bf and his new online friend? He met a girl on a game and they’ve been talking a lot recently. She’s been through a lot and a way to make her laugh is by calling her pet names. He calls her honey, baby, and love. What do I do?

I was ready to defend it until the pet name thing. I wholeheartedly believe in platonic boy/girl friendships but that parts off

I already thought that was pretty sus already before the pet name thing, but after that, damn that’s actually crazy. There’s literally no reason for someone to call someone who isn’t their partner those kinds of things. Even if it’s to make her laugh, that’s really no justification. NTA, if anything you’re underreacting, it seems

NTA I would be furious if my bf was calling another girl the things he’s only supposed to call me that’s a huge boundary crossed imo

Ask him to stop, if he doesn’t maybe make it extra clear and warn you’ll leave if it continues. Then if it continues; leave

Even if she’s sweet or whatever, doesn’t matter. She should also know that it’s weird for another girl’s bf to call her pet names like that….. And you’re NTA at all that’s weird for him to call her pet names couples would say.

I don’t want my man making other girls laugh in a one on one setting.

The pet names are fucking crazy. Those names are reserved for significant others and I can’t see anybody saying those in confidence without it at least being partially true. NTA

For an update, I talked with him about it and he apologized and said he would stop. I don’t have a problem with him being friends with girls since we both have friends of the opposite gender. The girl seems sweet so hopefully I’ll get to know her better!

Honestly the fact that you don’t have a problem with him having this friend, just with the pet name thing, shows you’re completely justified and nta

Completely agree with this and all other advice here. If he doesn’t stop or gets sneakier about it, LEAVE OP.

She’s asking for help. I don’t think that’s a very nice thing to comment.
