reserved for the strongest of allies and the closest of friends; a buddy is a person whom you can call/rely upon in ur greatest time of need; one who can be considered a surrogate sibling
When I realized I didn't know where I was, what was going on, and desperately needed to get home, but only had enough change for one phone I call... I didn't hesitate to call a buddy, because I knew I could count on them to help me.

'buddy' as an address (vocative) among guys

I have observed guys will often address as 'buddy' another guy either younger, smaller, or somehow bearing less status; this far it is not an overt, hostile put-down, but a more subtle; the speaker extends his friendship even while asserting superiority, whether in age, status or knowing experience.

I would say this sphere of the word only extends especially to acquaintances rather than the closest of friends; among close friends, if there's an alpha in the group, he might use 'buddy' on the others; but if there's a perceived equality, 'buddy' may then not carry these subtle social shades.
TIM, 12: Hey Pete.
PETE, 18: What's up buddy.

The term of endearment, "Buddy", b/n the opposite sex suggests a great love and appreaciation for each other. Cuddling, and sexual acts also are common and encouraged because the friendship is so strong that performing this acts simply brings the individuals closer. The term, when used b/n the opposite sexes is often mistakenly viewed as a sign of friendship without sexual connotations. This assumption falls shorts, as the it is at that point of the friendship that affection in all manners needs to be initiated. This is a common misunderstanding and is why many men see the friends zone as a dead end. Wake up! It is your green light
Woman: Hey buddy
Male: Do feel like cuddling
Woman: I thought you'd never ask

Buddy is one of the most handsome and funny guys you will ever meet. He is tall, with the sexiest curly blonde hair and the most perfect blue/green eyes. Not just a pretty face, Buddy is kind and compassionate. He is a man of integrity and exemplary manners. He always does the right thing. He is a man of few words, believing that his actions speak louder. He is strong, handsome, sexy, intelligent, funny, loyal, trustworthy, charismatic, loving, incredibly sweet, and thoughtful. He gives the best hugs and has the most irresistible voice in the whole world. Buddy brings out the best in everyone around him.

When you are with Buddy, you know you will always have the time of your life. He is a total goofus and will make you laugh until you cry. Not only is he the absolute funniest person you will ever meet, but he is also super intelligent and full of fun facts.
Everyone wishes they had a Buddy like that.
