All women believe what men say something to them, they really mean just that. That is not always the case though. In fact, men may mean a completely different thing when they say something specific to you, and that is exactly the case when a guy calls you babe. They may say the word in a good way or may say it to imply something bad. Let's find out more about it.
When a Guy Calls You Babe, What Does He Mean?
Good Indication
He Finds You Attractive: Yes, it is possible that a man calls you babe when he thinks you are quite attractive. This is especially true when you hear someone say, "Wow, she is such a babe!" This may also be the case when you do not know that person calling you babe. If someone calls you babe because he thinks you are cute, hot, or sexy, you may also find him or her checking you out often.
He Uses It As a Pet Name: When someone calls you babe, it sometimes means nothing because the person uses the word "babe" to address a lot of people in his circle. You should not take it seriously if you also know the guy and are aware of him using the word quite often. He may just be using the word to refer to a girl in general, so do not automatically think he is calling you babe because he is a player.
He Wants to Know What You Think of Him: In other words, someone calling you babe for the first time may actually by trying to gauge your interest. He may be using the word to see how your react so he could know if you are also interested in him. A simple thing you can do is to reciprocate in the same way and call him babe too. If he shows more affection, this probably means he wants to be in a relationship with you.
Not So Good Indication
He Is Flirting with You: While some men may use the word 'babe' to simply gauge your interest, some others may only be trying to flirt with you using the same word. Many guys use this word when flirting, and it is not a good thing especially if you are in a flirtatious setting.
He Needs to Know Your Name: When a guy calls you babe, it may be because either he has forgotten your name or he wants to know it for the first time. It is important to keep in mind that some men may use the word 'babe' to address every girl because they have too many girls in their clutches and do not seem to remember everyone's name. You may want to avoid such a person.
He Is After a One-Night Stand: When a man uses the word 'babe' to make you feel special, it may be because he is hitting on you and also trying to pick you up for a one-night stand. Depending on your setting, it may not be a good thing and it is actually a good idea to show no response to such a person.
He Wants to Impress His Friends: Some guys would call you babe to grab your attention and make his friends know that he thinks you are completely into him. This may not be a bad thing always, but you may want to avoid one such person if he uses the word sarcastically in front of his friends.
How to Identify and Avoid a Player
He Pretends to Know Your True Feelings
If it seems that he is a little too much into you, he is probably just playing you. It is common for such men to call you every night, text you all day, and do everything else to make their presence felt. Once you get used to all this, they suddenly disappear, making you feel as if you are missing something. This is when you become vulnerable to all their tricks. Know if they are showing too much affection in the beginning and avoid such people as much as possible.
He Gives You Nick Names
When someone calls you babe, there are always chances that he is a player. You may also see him find other 'cute' nicknames for you. Keep in mind that players are always sweet talkers, so take your time and do not start trusting someone who calls you babe from the word go.
He Compliments You a Lot
Everyone likes to be complimented, but if he does it all the time, know that something is just not right. Another thing to note is that a player will try to spoil you with his compliments and also ask you about your sex life. This shows that he is interested in you sexually, not emotionally.
He Doesn't Want to Keep His Relationship Public
This is especially true if you are in relationship with someone you have met online. Know that he is a player if he does not want to be seen in public with you. A player would be very reluctant to hang out with you in public places mainly because he does not want to bump into his other girls. He definitely does not deserve your time and attention.
