    If people are offended by how you address them they should start wearing name tags saying "please address me by my name" or something.

    Let me break it down for you per my SC traditional understanding:

    Sweetie = you're the spawn of Satan, 9/10 times demeaning.
    Honey = you're an idiot, but a lovable one
    Sweetheart = similar to honey, but far less lovable.
    Darlin' = almost always very endearing addition to a sentence. Actually kinda difficult to use in a negative connotation unless you're uncultured & don't know the rest of the above code words.

    Tell him to try the phrase "listen here, darlin'"

    I heard that phrase uttered once. The fury of a thousand suns was unleashed shortly after & I had to ask if that word was un-kosher because its by far my favorite. Girl waitresses/bartenders/anyone in service industry = Darlin', boys = Beau.

    One of my favorite things in life is when an older southern woman calls me honey. It just makes my heart warm somehow.

    It's a southern thing for sure and usually a veiled insult. I try to use it sparingly. I don't mind it usually except when they really pour it on. I almost jumped through the drive thru window and slapped some woman that called my husband darling and sugar after every sentence.

    I've never actually heard it used as an insult, I think people read too much into things these days.

    Another one, though it's a bit more regional, is "oh sweetie" can definitely be subbed in for a good ole "Bless your heart". They are not wishing you well lol

    The first time I moved out of state it was to Ohio, and they absolutely hated me saying things like that. Men, women, didn't matter. You could see them physically cringe. I hated it there though, so I just used it even more. I think part of their issue was that we were sooooo close to living in Appalachia, they felt they needed to disconnect themselves from those mountain hillbillies, and that's a similarity.
