Do you talk to your DP/ H in a stupid voice?

AIBU to think this is a natural evolution in a relationship - that you develop a particular voice to talk to your DP in? Like some kind of private joke between you?

Like, ever since we watched The Wire about five years ago DP does the voice of Senator Clay Davis periodically ('Sheeeeeeeit') and calls me 'muthafucka' (in an affectionate way, really!). He is from Yorkshire in reality.

Ever since he made a big deal about getting a cat I do this weird cat voice when I talk to him. Once we were going for a walk late at night and I was talking to him in it and our NDNs came round the corner - they have never looked at me quite the same way...

Is this a normal thing that happens in a relationship after a few years or are we just freaks?

My DH says that the thing that made him eventually marry me is the time I pinned him to the ground and sang the Pogues' Fairytale of New York in his ear in the voice of the Reverend Iain Paisley. I also do Papa Lazarou - had no idea I was in such good company with that one.
