It’s now been a few times where an older adult (maybe 50+ years old) has called me “endearing”, i always associated this term with children, but i am fully grown adult. Is there something i’m doing wrong? Why are people using a term for children for adults?
Edit: ok thanks everyone, apparently there’s a misunderstanding on my part and this word can be used for adults
I have never heard anyone refer to a child as “endearing”
I’m sure it’s happened somewhere, but I don’t think that’s a common tbing
