Is it okay to name and talk to your car like a person?
A man is questioning whether he’s an a**hole for telling his girlfriend that it’s weird and embarrassing to talk about her car like a person. He thinks it’s odd that she named her car ‘Angie’ and describes her car as if it’s another person. He believes that a car is a machine and should be treated as such. However, his girlfriend got upset and radio silent after he said that. People have different ways of showing affection and some might name their cars, pets, or plants. Some might even talk to them like they’re alive. Is it really that weird or is it just an innocent way of expressing love and attachment? What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
