We all save the people we're closest to in our lives with silly names. When we save their numbers, we don't think much of it. We choose what seems the most endearing and fitting. In today's 'Am I the A$$hole?' post, OP told us that she has her little brother's name saved in her phone as 'My Love.' We thought it was super sweet, but OP's boyfriend wasn't as much of a fan. When he lost his phone, he typed in his name in her contact list, and 'My Love' came up while he was searching. He assumed it was his name, but quickly discovered that it was her little brother's number. He was super pissed that he wasn't the person known as 'My Love' as her phone. Dude, chill out. It's her little brother. It's not like she's cheating on him. Scroll down for what the Redditors had to say about the story.

    Font - Yesterday my bf, Micah(M23) lost his phone and asked me if he can use my phone to call himself and find it. I gave it to him. Apparently he searched "M" saw someone saved as "my love" and thought that must be him. He called without checking the number just to find out that it was actually my little brother (M10). he asked me why I have my little brother saved as "my love" instead of him. I jokingly said it's because my brother is the true love of my life not him and he got very upset and

    OP's boyfriend clearly can't take a light joke, and it's super weird that he's jealous in the first place.

    Human body - He thinks it's inappropriate that I have my brother saved as my love and it should be him. He is not talking to me now. did I really do something wrong?

    Font - thedrlecter 3 hr. ago NTA. "My love" is not reserved for romantic or sexual relationships, plus the large age gap greatly changes the dynamic of the relationship [I have a sibling who is 17 years younger than I am].

    Font - PutTheKettleOn20 1 hr. ago I call my dog "my little love" and "my love" all the time, mostly while stroking her cheeks. I don't use "the love of my life" on a partner ever, just because it's too cheesy. Cute referring to her baby brother as it though when there's such a big age difference.

    Rectangle - Monicawroteitbetter. 3 hr. ago Asshole Aficionado [17] NAH, but that's so weird... Growing up I'd probably have my sisters saved as "Pain in the arse 1 and 2".
