Me and my boyfriend don't call each other any nicknames?

We've been dating for almost two months and have already said we love each other. Everything s going well but I see other couples calling each other babe and baby and sweetheart and stuff but me and my boyfriend just call each other by our names. how do we even start using nicknames?

    It's only been two months. I remember not using anything with my husband for a while, like maybe 5-6 months. For some couples, it's just the natural progression of the relationship and they slip out and become habit shortly after.

    I had a boyfriend once that HATED pet names and wouldn't answer to anything but his own name. Wouldn't call me anything, either. It seemed really awkward to me.

    Just let one slip out and see how you both feel.

    I have been with my husband for 10 years, and we NEVER call each other sweet little nicknames (at least not on a regular basis).

    Don't. It is silly and stupid. I call my girl by her name because I LOVE to say her beautiful and wonderful name. She calls me by my name because I hate to be called babe, honey, sweets, Boo Bear or any of those diminutive silly baby names.

    start them off friendly and funny, like bab or b, or if he says something cute you could say 'awh you little munchkin' LOL. this will make it a lot easier to drop some names
