French Terms of Endearment Hello! I was wondering if anyone can tell me some of the terms that the French use to call their significant other, or how they express their feelings for someone? It's not something that my French teacher has taught us, and I am curious. Thanks! :)

I used all of them, when talking to my sweetheart or to my children.
