When did people start using "BAE?"

I saw it for the first time yesterday. I guess I'm an out-of-touch geezer hee hee.

My guess: When Rumplestiltskin from Once Upon a Time started using it to describe his son.

Became popular/common usage among teens around roughly late 2013/early last year, though it's existed for far longer (first ever definition - 2003).

Nah. Just getting a late start which there is nothing wrong with.

I fell into an unexpected relationship with a MUCH older woman when I was in my 20's and that really helped curb my anxieties around women.

Well if you're a loser for that reason then that makes me a loser too, and I won't tolerate people slandering me. So no, you're not a loser.

I'm 23 but when I was 16/17 I went through two boyfriends because I was confused and at the time I don't think I actually fancied them but because I'd never had one before I thought that it was what I should be doing.

I've not had a boyfriend since then realising I'd rather be sure that I'm with the right person than someone I'm just settling for. Don't worry about your age, you're not a loser, you've just got standards! :D

Wow. Your dream is almost as much of a lost cause as mine is. :P

Some posters have given good advice, though it is easier said than done (eg. trying to refrain from comparing yourself to others). Is there a specific person you're interested in? If so, then I'd say take a risk and initiate something, like ask him/her out to coffee or some fun activity.

p.s. Your thread title reminded me of the movie "Little Miss Sunshine". If you haven't seen it, I'd highly recommend it :)


I wanna be like the grandpa at the end of that movie.

Many of the people who frequent this forum are in a similar predicament. I'm 19, and I've never even kissed anyone, so you're beating me. If you go through and look at other topics on this forum, you'll see that there are many people around our age and even much older that are in a similar position. Most of us are male, but there are some females in the same boat too.

Why does everybody assume having never dated or had a relationship or the like (I'm not even sure what each of those terms mean, as they refer to things completely alien to my life) means you're waiting for the right person? What if your lifestyle simply won't let you ever meet such a person, and it's beyond your means to change it in a way that would allow that to happen? Besides, how long do you have to keep waiting for something you've been wanting since your early teenage years? Surely it was too early at that time, right? What about ten years later? Still too early, I guess. Let's be patient. Maybe twenty years later, in your thirties, is enough, or, since patience is such a great virtue, is it better to keep waiting? Shall you wait till your forties? Well, if you want to have children, and are a woman, or a man who doesn't really want to look for a partner much younger than him, you're screwed!

I guess you only know it's no longer way, way too early when it's way, way too late.
