what does this mean: the person I was dating said "you are a piece of work and I mean it".?

Question

Is this a positive sign or negative sign or neutural.
what's your opinion.

Answer 1

Neutral because it can be both negative and positive at the same time.

Answer 2

My opinion would be that this is a neutral sign. However you have to ask the person what they meant or you will never know and you wont have the chance to correct what ever it is you may be doing wrong in the relationship. That is if you think the problem needs to be changed.

Answer 3

I would take it to mean you're unique, but I don't know if he meant that in a positive way. I don't know the context of the conversation, so it's hard to say

Answer 4

Negative...

Answer 5

I don't know what context it was said in, but I would tend to think it's a negative.

Answer 6

You have taken the sentence out of context so I can not tell you, It could mean either, need more detail

Answer 7

Sounds negative to me. It's called sarcasm.

Answer 8

Could you be more specific? Sometimes I say that to my bf, because he has said something funny.

If it was something good or funny, no problem
If not.....it means that you are a real piece of sh*#!!!

Answer 9

Well it generally means is that sometimes he could figure u out and other times you're a mystery.....

Answer 10

He could have meant it either way.....I'm guessing that he found you a handful, complicated and he couldn't work you out, that u kept him on his toes and that made him feel uncomfortable.
