Loving, forgiving and kindhearted all describe behaviors, while moral realist describes a belief someone holds about reality. That said person then (allegedly) "turns around and subjectively chooses a moral standard, and subjectively interprets it, and subjectively applies it..." doesn't change his beliefs one iota, because he still believes that moral standard is an objective moral standard that holds for all persons, in all places, during all times.
What you're right now is the moral subjectivist version of the "A person might claim to be a moral relativist, but when someone does something that impacts them negatively and they react with indignation and requests that they be given reparations for the 'wrongs' committed toward them and that the perpetrator should be punished for their 'crimes', they're revealing that they're actually a moral realist deep down, and when push comes to shove they don't actually believe morality is subjective" claim.
Bottom line, you're wrong about what "the term defines".
