Just for you, I asked my 15-year-old and 16-year-old for an explanation on 'bae' (they're still laughing at my ignorance). According to them:
It's an endearment. You use it in the way you say other terms of endearment including love, sweetie, beloved, baby, babe, etc. It's used on non-related people you really like or feel close to. Boyfriend/girlfriend, best friend, close friend, etc. "I'm hoping to see my bae tonight" and "Hi, bae".
It also can be used to describe something or someone that's so good or cool that it needs to be worshipped. "You have to check out that bae book/girl/dress/film/whatnot."
I think it's an idiotic word. That's all.
