In a situation like this, I would just ask my partner how they feel about it bc just bc your friend finds it cringe doesn’t mean your partner does. Me and my partner have done plenty of things that would probably be cringe to others, but it works for us so we don’t really care. I also think the context of the nickname cookie is too cute, so idk what the friend was on about 😭😭

talking from experience, please do not get into a friendship with somebody who tries to teach you how to be “normal”. they will drain you for all you’re worth and leave you with nothing

I have stopped being friends with that person as of a couple years ago, i also didn’t get into the friendship in hopes of having someone NT be able to tell me what to do, we became friends when I was 9 and just stayed friends until I was around 16, then she moved away and realized life was easier when I didn’t have to think so hard about how I was socializing with people.

Exactly, PLEASE communicate. Your friend is not your partner, they do not dictate your relationship
