Adam: hey, what’s up?
Nothin much u tell me?
Adam: how are you? nothing much here too
I am good! how are you?
Adam: em fyne!
Oh that’s really good to know
Adam: really? that’s good to know? **so you care about me? **
why do guys think that you CARE about them in that way?? i mean it is possible it is the way you speak?
my reaction to that last message was, of course it is good to know. i would be happy if the other human being i am talking to is ok and good. i wouldnt want anyone to be injured etc. so if you are good and fine that’s good to know.
it’s the way i freaking speak! guys dont get it:smack:
thats one of those things that comes naturally when ur doing ur salutations/greetings.
'how are u'
'how have u been doing'
'whats going on'
'im great how are u'
'good to know'
therefore, why the hell would anyone think u care about them. when i say 'good to know' what i really mean is 'ok, i dont really care, get to the main point'
Aisha, you’re posing a reasonable question to someone of a **QUEER **mind. Trust me hon, you’ll get nowhere.
Now to answer your question. Keep in mind that this conversation took place over the internet. Therefore, we can only guess as to what is going on with this guy since we can’t see his facial expressions. So here are some possibilities for what he might have meant when he said, “So you care about me?”:
1) He’s interested in you (perhaps more than a friend) and that’s why he asked you such an unnecessary question.
**2) ** He’s joking around. I’ve seen guys and girls make flirtatious comments in a joking manner as well with very little to no meaning behind the words.
**3) **He thinks of you as a friend and is going through a rough time. Perhaps he’s sad. Perhaps he feels that people in his life don’t care about him. And he was happy that you care about him…that’s why he asked the question.
4) He wants to flatter himself that somebody cares about him. The next time he says, “So you care about me?” Say something smart like “Well only if you care about me.”
5) He’s drunk. Or he’s on some kind of medication that causes brain farts…resulting in strange unnecessary questions.
1) He's interested in you (perhaps more than a friend) and that's why he asked you such an unnecessary question.
*This is highly likely. *
**2) **He's joking around. I've seen guys and girls make flirtatious comments in a joking manner as well with very little to no meaning behind the words.
*This is highly highly likely because he always talks to me in a flirtatious manner and sometimes crosses the boundaries. I get angry and tell him I am going to stop talking to him and then he says sorry "mai mazaak kar raha tha". *
**3) **He thinks of you as a friend and is going through a rough time. Perhaps he's sad. Perhaps he feels that people in his life don't care about him. And he was happy that you care about him....that's why he asked the question.
*Well we are pretty tight and if there was some problem or if he was going through a rough time I would have known. This is the first time he asked me this today. Normally every time we talk on MSN the same routine is followed, how are you? i am good n u? i am fine? that's good to know! oh really :) *
*But today he asked the "so you care about me?" question too so this is why I am shocked. *
4) He wants to flatter himself that somebody cares about him. The next time he says, "So you care about me?" Say something smart like "Well only if you care about me."
*You know what I think his answer is going to be yes I do care about you because I think he genuinely does care about me even though he knows there are boundaries and limitations and he is just a friend to me. So if I ask that question and he answers I would have to reply too. *
5) He's drunk. Or he's on some kind of medication that causes brain farts....resulting in strange unnecessary questions.
*No, he is muslim and I know for a fact that he does not drink. So this cannot be it. *
I have told him a million times that you are my friend and that’s it. You are a friend albeit a very good one. I have told him this so I assumed it is not necessary to say it again and he would know that I do care about him but as a friend only.
