What does it mean when a guy uses the word MY before a nick name?

Instead of saying how you going sexy? he would say hows MY sexy going?

To me I use it as referring to someone close to me. This doesn't necessarily mean that it has to be a loved one, just someone who's important to me.

And I use it to flirt and see how the person reacts to it, too. Since a person I flirt to always is someone I know for a longer period of time (I'm not the guy who just goes out on the street and meets random people ... ^^) they will know that "my ..." isn't something I'd usually say to her, so this is a change and seeing her react on it tells me a little bit more about our "relationship".

Hope this answer went into the direction you wanted it to be ;-)

guys talk like that to flirt. if you react positively to it, then he'll take it as a cue to move in for the kill.
