He jokingly says "I hate you" ?

[Anonymous]

I was texting this kid and I said something funny and he responded "Hahaha I hate u" What does that mean?

[GoodManDave]

He's joking.

It could be "I hate you" (because I'm jealous you came up with a great joke). It could be that you jokingly made fun of him, so "I hate you" is a joking response.

It's not always flirting. I say this to both guy and girl pals.

Some people find hate hilarious.

It means he is immature and won't treat you with respect.

Simple, it means he likes you and is flirting with you.

[Settingemstraight]

You did something impressive and he's too embarrassed to compliment you

[Settingemstraight]

IF he says it again just own it and say "You love it"

That he is joking and probably has feelings for you

[damondino]

Because he has a sense of humour ?
