what does feel like mean?

Question

if i say he doesn't feel like my boyfriend,what does it mean?

does it mean,,,i don't feel like he is my boyfriend? or,,,he doesn't feel like he is my boyfriend?

Answer 1

<>It could mean either of those, or even be related to the sense of touch, I guess. That's the way of the English language...a lot has to do with the meaning implied.

Answer 2

I would want to know a bit more about the conversation. If you were talking about his feelings anyway, then I would take it as HIM not feeling like he is your boyfriend. If you are talking about how you feel about him, then I would take it as YOU not feeling like he is your boyfriend. Then again you could be touching some guy and commenting that he feels different to your boyfriend!

Answer 3

Impossible to know without more information. If he says, "I don't feel like your boyfriend because I'm more interested in checking out other women or playing with my toy train or what have you than I am in being in a relationship with you," that means he doesn't WANT to be your boyfriend. If he says, "I don't feel like your boyfriend because you're constantly checking out other guys and you giggle about me with your friends when I'm around," that means he feels as though YOU aren't acting as though he's your boyfriend.

Answer 4

It means you don't feel he is your boyfriend. If you want to say "He doesn't feel like he is my boyfriend," then you would say, "He doesn't feel like I am his girlfriend." Or better yet, "He doesn't think of me as his girlfriend," and, "I don't think of him as my boyfriend."

Answer 5

the second one sounds like the question

Answer 6

feel like=seems

Answer 7

it means your young and indecisive and probably should be dating other people.
