"&amp;quot;Well,&amp;quot; said Neighbor Bro as I climbed out of the cab after our ping-pong date, &amp;quot;it was very nice to meet you.&amp;quot; I&amp;#39;m sorry, WHAT? Had this just been a date or a job interview? I mumbled something similar, scurried into my apartment and immediately started talking to myself.\n&amp;quot;I thought we had a good time, what&amp;#39;s all this nice to meet you&amp;#39; crap?&amp;quot; I fumed to the elevator buttons. &amp;quot;I&amp;#39;m surprised he didn&amp;#39;t hand me a business card!&amp;quot;\nPinterestFacebookIf this line followed a night of uncomfortable silences and clashing opinions, then this would be a fair way to end the date. But we&amp;#39;d had an awesome time! The ping-pong competition stayed friendly and light (no tantrums or trips to the ER), and we talked a lot about our lives. A solid date, if you ask me. But now I wasn&amp;#39;t so sure.\nI called my friend Hilary for advice and translation.\n&amp;quot;Hmmm,&amp;quot; she mused, &amp;quot;considering you two had never met before, I think he was just trying to be polite. Going in for a kiss would&amp;#39;ve been awkward.&amp;quot;\nI rolled my eyes. Sure, maybe a goodnight smooch would&amp;#39;ve been a little much, but nice to meet you? Ugh. One guy I met on OKCupid handed me this line after a super-fun brunch date&amp;#8212;never heard from him again. After that, I decided this line was the kiss of death, a courteous way of saying &amp;quot;I want nothing to do with you sexually. Ever.&amp;quot;\nBut not always. Eastern European Boy actually said the same thing after our first date, and I figured that he was gone with the wind. But nearly two months later, we&amp;#39;re still hanging out!\nSo who knows what this icky phrase means for Neighbor Bro and I. What do y&amp;#39;all think?\nWas he being gentlemanly? Or was he giving me the brush off? Has a boy ever said this to you? Or maybe you&amp;#39;ve said this to a date? If you&amp;#39;ve handed down the &amp;quot;Nice to meet you,&amp;quot; what were you REALLY trying to say?\nFor more...\nHot date ends in a catfight! \n10 ways to seduce your man in seconds!\nMy incredibly terrible second date with Mr. Lacrosse!\nPhoto: Jupiter Images"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
