wiseup Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 When a guy says "I feel pretty strong about you", does he mean he likes me, he's in like with me, or possibly...love me?
whichwayisup Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 It means he has strong feelings for you. It is what it is, so be happy that's what he said. He cares for you and usually when one says that, it also means their feelings are growing as well.
IrishCarBomb Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 It's manspeak for: "Please pass the Cheetos, and then remove your shirt."
butcher's hook Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Depends is this at the beginning or end of relationship?
Author wiseup Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 He said that when we both knew it's probably gonna end. I think he's trying to say that he never was in love with me, just felt strongly about me?
Author wiseup Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 Yeah, I guess I was just trying to figure out if I ever meant anything to him.
SoulSearch_CO Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 It's manspeak for: "Please pass the Cheetos, and then remove your shirt." :lmao: Awesome.
Jilly Bean Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I think it means he cared for you, but was never in love with you.
butcher's hook Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 He said that when we both knew it's probably gonna end. I think he's trying to say that he never was in love with me, just felt strongly about me? That's why I asked. It is a BIG difference at what point it is expressed. Beginning = "I love you" is on the tip of my tongue Not beginning or ending = I like you a lot but I am not falling in love with you...
whichwayisup Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Yup, he cares about you, has feelings of attachment for you, but he isn't feeling the inlove feeling.
Author wiseup Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 Or maybe it has crossed my mind from time to time, I just didn't want to admit it. The relationship was short and intense. When we were together, I had that "magic" kind of feeling. So I guess I mistook that for love but the truth is passion or the feeling of liking each other lots doesn't necessarily evolve into love. And it is hard for me to accept that it wasn't love because of the intense magical feelings I've mentioned above. But I think you guys are right. He never was in love with me. I wish I had realized this sooner or had someone flat out tell me this sooner. It makes it easier for me to move on and not dwell on the thought of him ever coming back. If he never loved me, why would he come back, right? I am going to really discard the thoughts of him coming back because now I realize that he's not because he never loved me. I am going to try to move on, for real.
butcher's hook Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Sorry to hear that. Sounds like maybe you were falling in love with him and he wasn't feeling exactly that himself. That is not to say what you felt was not real though. Everyone is different and sometimes that does happen where one person is feeling more than than the other. Don't hate him for it maybe he just needed time to sort out his feelings, you know people like to give people a chance and see where it goes. Love is always a risk, a risk that we will get our heart broken. But it makes it all worth while for when we do find the one person who feels exactly as we do for them.
lucy9216 Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I am sorry to hear that you were falling in love and he wasn't That always hurts. Better now than 5 or 10 years from now, my ex did that after 6 years and a daughter together he left cause he said he was never in love with me, so it could be worse. Now you have more time to find the right guy for you.
BlueEyedGirl Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Depends on the context but it's usually a variant of "he is just not that into you".
