Just a simple observation, maybe nothing

My current internet dude, who I have yet to meet after our first failed attempt, has started calling me "hun", within the past few days. It's probably nothing, but I'm trying to understand that terminology usage, since it's becoming clear to me that he has no real interest in meeting. I haven't brought up meeting again or anything. We just chat, plain and simple. I'm still interested in him, that's why he's still around, but I don't want to fall prey to these hidden meanings behind these terms like "hun". I read that Dr. Phil story about the lady that gave 5 yrs of her life to an internet love that was a complete fraud. My situations is far from that, but my caution level is raised.

"Hun" is a term of endearment some men (young, old and in-between) use. More like reflex terminology that they might employ in a conversation.
But you know something? You can "terminate" the conversation and the relationship entirely if you REALLY feel uncomfortable? Then again...so can Mr. "HUN!"

I have not personally tried online dating but I know in the beginning when the internet was started it had a pretty bad reputation. Now it seems a very acceptable way to meet people. But I still think everyone needs to er on the side of caution. If he seems interested, but does not want to meet you there is a reason and ITS NOT YOU. Chances are its a wife or girlfriend that is in the picture. Just be careful and DO NOT get hung up on a man that you have never even met.
