As I don't recall that it's been used to me in a condescending way (any title used that way will get my goat, of course!), I don't mind "hun" at all. As far as I remember, it's only ever been used to me by older folks, and yeah, I admit it softens me right up (not that I'm particularly crusty to start with).
As the occasional gamer, when someone types that into a conversation with me, it makes me think they're an older person.
Don't actually hear it much here, California way.
Have to agree that I *really* dislike it when sales people use my name after I've given them my credit card, but I know that they're probably required to do so by the lame company--I can't imagine it just comes naturally, heh. They might dislike it too, but if that's your job...they very likely don't have the option of not saying it.
