The words ´canýmýn içi´, I keep hearing different translations of it´s meaning. Can someone tell me what it means? Also is it something used between lovers or friends, like ´caným´?

Þimdiden teþekkür ederim

Teþekkür ederim, so can this be used to address a friend like  we can use caným, or should we only use it to our boyfriends/girlfriends?

I should say "caným" is often used to address strangers (especially waiters,porters,bartenders). Big smile

 When I go out with my Turkish female friends we tend to address waiters or bartenders"deli kanli"<img src='/static/images/smileys//lol.gif' alt='lol'> (fast)as my friends say,canim would be too generous for those who rush their fences in most of casesBig smile

No decent Turkish lady calls a bartender or a waiter "delikanli", unless the lady is at least 3 times older than the latter.

"Canim", among people of quality, is an intimate term of endearment. No decent lady calls anyone "canim", unless the lady is willing to accept the same intimate term of endearment from  that person.

I´d be okay there then! How about ´yavrum´?
