I have known my SO for a year and a half. We both have children. When he talks about his children, he doesn't say their names. It is always my daughter this..and my daughter that...never their names. I know their names, I had to ask him awhile ago what they were.
I asked him once why he never said their names, and he said "i don't? I guess its just habit to say daughter" Then he used their names for a couple of days and went back to calling them daughters. But really? for a year and a half. I have my kids and I just call them by their names....all the time. We talk about our children quite often, as they are our life basically. I know he is a private person, but don't you think he would trust me by now to just use their names? It seems it would be a lot easier then saying my oldest daughter and my youngest daughter. I don't know, it just really seems to bother me sometimes that he doesn't...maybe it bothers me because its not how I am.
So, why do you think he doesn't call them by their names?
