I finished school early today and I went to meet my mum outside the school. As I was getting into the car, I noticed the most popular guy in school walk past and he goes "Thanks for last night! See you tomorrow"
I don't get it. What exactly did he mean by this? My mum said he was trying to make me laugh. I'm..err.. not so popular so I have no clue why he would talk to me. He blew me a kiss once when I was in the car with my mum too. He is a major flirt and does get a lot of girls so I'm not sure if it means anything.
What's going on here? Was this just a joke or did he have some hidden agenda?
tjam106 answered Monday August 14 2006, 4:27 pm: Ok, this guy is a scumbag. Thanks for last night basically means...thanks for the hot sex you gave me last night. How rude of him to degrade you like that in front of your mother? All for a laugh...what a jerk!
What if your mother took what he said seriously? How embarassing would that be?
PurplePudgyPenguin answered Monday August 14 2006, 3:21 pm: Hello there! I'm PurplePudgyPenguin, and I'm your 8th.. I think... advice giver! Okay, so by now you've probably made up your mind but it can't hurt to hear my advice right? *cricket chirps* aw.. Anyways! Down to business!
Well, I've gone deep inside the times of space and viewed your future!!! ... No not really (Wouldn't that be cool if I did though? It'd be neat! I could predict the lottery and... Woah off subject! Sorry!). I've come up with a few ideas to why he did what he did, his intentions, your approach, and all that other good stuff. Keep in mind, this is plain advice. Don't pick any of these and just follow it. Do what feels right to YOU. These are merely suggestions:
1) He's definately into you. He may sound like he's being a smarta---butt.. but he may like you as well. Don't be shy to go up to him and talk to him. If he still comes up as a jerk, or being sarcastic, just try to be patient. Boys are sometimes difficult like that. If he mocks you or picks fun at you, give him the cold shoulder and walk away. Don't give him the satisfaction of seeing he hurt your feelings (if that's the outcome), but turn proudly and walk away with your chest puffed out.
2) He's just poking fun at you. My experience with popular boys has been that they live for putting people down to make themselves feel tall. This is called a 'cruel high'. In this case, watch him, be patient with his movements, study what he says carefully. If it's mocking, or too sarcastic to be gentle or meaningful, ignore him, or mock him back. Give him responses such as, "Hey toots", or blow him a kiss in return with a cocky smile. There's no rules in love and war.
3) Undeveloped feelings. He may be struggling with himself if he likes you. In this case, don't approach him forcefully, thinking you'll end up in a relationship. Act as though what he says does not register. Instead, ask him if he'd like to study, do some homework together, or eat lunch. Friendly questions or a simple "how was your day?". Be careful though, undeveloped love means that it can easily shift to hate or nuetral feeling.
4) He's showing off. If you see a group of friends around him when he does these things, ignore it. There's no chance for love in this case. Hold your head up high and keep waiting, cause sooner or later a better, more compassionate man is going to float your way.
Well, that pretty much sums it up. Sorry for the length, I tend to go into explanations a lot. If my advice wasn't to your liking, you have.. *counts* 7 others here that will be more than happy to listen to you. I do hope and wish you the best with your problem. And remember, no matter what, hold your head up high for all of us girls. =)

krazyismefosho answered Monday August 14 2006, 12:22 pm: Don't make much of it.
He's most likely trying to get you in trouble with your mom, or trying to embarrass you or make you laugh. He probably thinks he's real funny, but that's one of the less creative jokes from the book.
He's just trying to get to you.. it's nothing personal.
XkittyOkatX answered Monday August 14 2006, 12:07 pm: Hah. He was most likely trying to embarass you or joke around with you.
Thanks for last night reffers to a one night stand, or something like that.
DefinedEyes answered Monday August 14 2006, 12:05 pm: Its a joke.
When people say that they mean
that you had sex or a one night stand you know..
I dont think he likes you though.
Like you said, if he hardly talks to you,
he's probably just teasing you. [ DefinedEyes's advice column | Ask DefinedEyes A Question ]
orphans answered Monday August 14 2006, 11:55 am: It was most likely just a joke and I bet he thought it was even funnier since you were in the car with your mom. When someone says *Thanks for last night* or another famous one, *Tell your mom I said thanks for last night*, it's a joke that means he had a good time while you were...involved in sexual acts. He wasn't being serious, just playing around and messing with you. Next time just say something like *Did you wake up after that?* or *I know it's hard but try to keep me out of your dreams*.

laycieee answered Monday August 14 2006, 11:53 am: Lol I think he was trying to make your mom mad as if you guys had sex or w.e the night before, trying to get you into trouble. I hate people like that all popular people are jack asses so don't listen to them, no matter how nice you think they are, they're not. [ laycieee's advice column | Ask laycieee A Question ]
