It depends on their tone. Some people just call everyone it but some people use it to talk down to you.

agreed... i'm in the south and we all call people hun or sweetie but it's definately in our tone that tells you how we're meaning it

I call all my friends "hun". Not sure why but I do. I have only had one person tell me not to call them that which I respect. But yeah..I

think it has to do with the tone on how it is meant

I hate it unless you are my bf
