We went out for a lovely mothers' day lunch today and took a taxi so my husband and I could both have a drink.
The taxi driver was quite chatty and called me "darling" but called my husband "sir".
Now it's not that I mind so much being called darling, not a huge fan but not bothered either. It's not that I require a formal address. It was more the unmatched form of address. If he is "sir" then I should be "madam".
If he'd called my husband "mate" but called me "darling" I wouldn't have been bothered.
AIBU?
