An endearment for everyone

To me, there definitely a time for everything. Similarly a term of endearment for that special someone in life. To me, that is personal, a special exchange only to be embraced by 2.
But to my dismay I realised I might be the only one who cherished this aspect. Was rather affected by an ex who now uses the same endearment term I insisted he use for me for his other significant half. I could never bring myself to use the same endearments for different people. Each term was special and a memory of one.
Perhaps 我太钻牛角尖了, nobody really cares much about this kind of thing. 看开点吧，该放手，该让座，不管我多么不舍得。
