Lived in the south for 30 + years. I hear this pretty regular. It can mean a lot of things, none of them good unless the person saying it is super old, then its a toss up.
I must hang around old people too much..... :turtle:

I was born and raised in the South. I'm not really old! For those around me, bless your heart meant you had sympathy for someone. Over the years, the meaning has certainly changed, though.

people say it here all the time. It's used to modify a parenthetical phrase - as in:

He don't know what he is doing, bless his heart.
Or she made a mess of that, bless her heart.

or, they're just Yankee's, bless their hearts
yep, been on the receiving end of quite a few bless his hearts

it's funny that people online think it's malicious...maybe it's sometimes used sarcastically, but from my experience it's an expression of genuine sympathy. :shrug:
in my experience it has always been used in a condescending way. as if the user was saying that if the person was a little bit more competent we wouldn't have to be blessing their heart

Same, mainly it's used as a free pass to gossip about someone (which can include insinuating that they are dumb) but still act like you care about their well being.

The Ocmp75 ones are completely broken now. You have to be able to hit end conversation to get the credit for it.

My grandmother's favorite to use on me was, "Thank god you're pretty..."
