What exactly a guy means when he says “Keep in Touch” ?
I would says he wants to keep contact with you so you could call him if you like the guy if not just ignore it. or maybe he probably means that he just wants to keep in touch, if he doesn’t think there is anything besides just a friendship, thats all he wants.
A similar problem occurred with my friend Daisy. Here is what she mailed few months back.
” I had this great friendship with Ted, and then things got complicated but both of us didn’t want a relationship so things were confusing for a while, and then i was gone for a month and he was busy with work, and things seemed cold when i got back, and we didn’t end up talking for another month, until i texted him telling him i missed him, and he texted back to meet up and chat….things went well, mainly a lot of catching up… but i’m not sure if he just did it because he felt bad for me, or if he really did miss me as well and wanted to see me. in the past, he always would say he’d “call me” (and sometimes he would, sometimes not) but this time, he said, “call me sometime”…i dont understand if this basically means he’s not really interested in ever seeing me again unless i want to see him, and give him a call??? ”
My Friend Mike read the email and said:
“He wants her to want him more or He wants to feel more wanted (he likes that). He is picking up the vibe that she want him, (sorta) and he would like to feel more powerful over her by making that feeling in you increase. Therefore making him feel better about himself and also so that her want him more. That way he is in control of the situation. He probably likes her somewhat and may not be crazy for her (he probably thinks booty call) and wants to figure out how much you like him. He is probably confused of what your feelings are about him and some of his own. This is a really good question I think. Okay hope that helps and makes sense. ”
But I personally think this is from a guy’s perspective. He likes her but isn’t sure what she feel, as such, he doesn’t want to be presumptious and think she likes him as well . . . he would like proof that she still likes him. She said it good in the beginning, it is complicated!
Later I received a response from her:
“I think this one summarized it the best. It seems to really fit his personality, because i have resisted him in the past and insisted on friendship, making him a little insecure of the whole situation; Also, the way he said it didn’t come across as uninviting. Thanks for all great responses!”
Do post your comments about this.!
