What does it mean if a boy calls you ma?

this I've met was finna leave and he said bye ma and gave me a hug all i know its just slang talk what does it mean?

he just wants to fuck. at least thats how i take it when i get called that. its just rude and insincere. i would think that someone who is into for you would at least remember your name or call you beautiful, something more genuine.
