It might just be a signature thing of his to do. Some people send xx's, some people send emoticons and others don't bother with any signature endings. If he does it with his other friends then I'd say it's probably just a sign that you and he have a pretty close friendship going on. I don't think he means anything more than that but I don't think he's friendzoned you either.
You should find out if he does that with his other friends or not. If he does it's likely just to be a signature but if not then it might be something he does to tease you or as a sorta nickname type thing. :)
You can always just ask him why he calls you 'bud' :P Seems a bit blunt but if you do it in a teasing way then he probably won't have a problem answering it or giving you a clue as to what he means. :D
Hope this helps!

No. Take it from me - I call girls I like "dude" or "bro" cause it's kinda silly. The guy probably thinks of it as a sort of cute nickname...
Not necessarily friendzone at all.
I don't know... I really can't imagine a young guy friend zoning you... I almost think it is a defense mechanism so you don't catch on that he likes you. Kinda like he's responding in the opposite way he feels to overcompensate his "intense" feelings from leaking.
haha my guy friend does that too! well he usually says buddy but same idea. i'm dating his friend and he has a girlfriend so i assume it's a very platonic term. also it doesn't sound very sexy lol
Ouch babe, that's like extreme friendzoning to the max

I personally don't like using or hearing that word. It just sounds goofy; but yeah that's about as platonic of a word he could use.
I say that to almost everyone even if I like her.

Vouch for me bud! :DHe could be using "Bud" as a pet name it's hard say if he's
friend zoning you or nothe could be friend zoning you or he could like you but is playing it cautiously because he is unsure of your feelings towards him
Yeah, that may mean friend zone unfortunately. It doesn't mean that he isn't attracted or interested though. You're cute!
It could just be a habit. I say the word dude a lot to everyone :/
I call my fiance bud or dude sometimes. The guy could still like you.
HEY BUD
