As a bear, I love honey. I love to eat honey on anything and everything, at any time of day, and at any time at night. It is the last thing I like to eat before I go to bed, and the first thing I eat when I wake up in the morning. My life, in short, centers around honey.
Humans also recognize the delicious nature of honey, and use the word "honey" to express affection to each other. This makes perfect sense to me, as calling someone honey indicates that they are indeed the center of your universe, at least to this bear. After all, what could be sweeter than the person that you love, and by calling them this pet name of endearment, you ensure that they know exactly how you feel about them.
If you are not calling someone that you love, honey, you should probably rethink this policy immediately. Please note that this should be reserved for the people that you date, are married to, or have a very open line of communication with, as sometimes people can easily misconstrue calling them honey.
For example, honey is probably not an appropriate term of endearment at the work place, with your favorite feminist, with the teacher that you have a crush on, with your boss at the construction site, or with your teammates on any sports team. It is also not an appropriate way to refer to judges, police officers, or human resources directors, based on what I have heard in the human world.
Be smart, and reserve the name for the person that will appreciate it. Then, you can delight in the sweetness of your honey all day long, just like me! Tehehehe!
