What does this mean when people say it. It's really annoying. Do you think people mean it literally when they say it if your being introduced and stuff??:banghead:

"All good I hope"
"Not at all"
In canteen at school circa 1999
Head Girl: "You're _____ ______ aren't you?"
Me: "yes...why?"
Head Girl: "I've heard a lot about you"
Me: "about what exactly?"
Head Girl: "You nicked my neighbour's boyfriend"
Granted I was about 16 and the aforementioned neighbour had already dumped the b/f.....But since then I'm always paranoid when I hear it. :nervous:
But I think in general it means only what it said: They've heard a lot about you. Which can be good or bad things, true or false.
I'm just like..."like what " and they ALWAYS say "oh, good things".
They lie.
Indeed, it's the same with me.
Though I often just use it as a conversation filler; I never disclose what I've heard though. Good to keep people on their toes :thumb:
Person: I have a very personal question to ask you.
Danny: Go ahead, what is it?
Person: Forgive me for asking, but... who are you?
Happen often?
I like your new av by the way!
Her: Hello - are you .....
Me: Yeah, you must be..
Her: Yep thats me!
Me: Oh, i've heard alot about you..
OMG I heard about you before I saw this post... I think... Oh no I think I shouldn't say anything....
I invited a friend round to a party, and he brought his friends round. One of them asked my name, I told them and he said, "Ah... so you're ___ I've heard a lot about you!"
Sure, I had pulled one of his friends, so that might explain it.
Also, turned out the guy I had invited to the party had a massive crush on me.
The whole best friends scenario.
Anyway. Yes.
Just means that they have heard a lot about you. But maybe just a little, rather than a lot.
