I'm a guy, and I have never used any of those words to a friend in my entire life, and I never will. Guys don't say that. The most we'll say is "bro" or "dude".
Not sure about girls though.

Thank you. So, only to your wife, girlfriend, and kids?

Yeah, but I would not call kids "baby" or "babe" though. Those would only be for your girlfriend or wife, in my opinion.

In the UK people you don't know sometimes use words like darling (like the bus driver, sales assistant etc). It's just a way of being friendly. Female friends among themselves may sometimes use babe or sweetie, but not everyone. Baby is usually only used in couples.
