It means he full of shit. Men can't read women anymore than they can read the Voynich Manuscript.

  LOL. Why is he even saying this to me then? He has said it multiple times.

  I can't know for sure, but men are generally arrogant and pretentious creatures, especially around women. That's because they're either trying to impress them or belittle them.

  In that case its probably belittling. he's belittled me before out of nowhere and so have many other guys so this wouldn't be a surprise. Very hurtful.

  Well then just leave him in the dust. Find friends and acquaintances that appreciate you.

  Agreed. I guess he can't think of a better way to connect with women.

  They say that too but aftetwards its all a bunch of negging, gaslighting, flattery mixed in at times. Mostly belittling.

  So they ask but don't stop to listen to the answer? That doesn't work. Listening and paying attention has worked for me.

  They pay attention and then use everything I say and my body language to neg me into oblivion and belittle me.

  They aren't having a conversation. They think they are playing a game. Gross.

That's kind of weird. He's saying that he just intuitively "gets" you. He can predict what you'll do, how you'll react, etc...

He has been analyzing you and knows you by your body language, mannerisms etc some people are very perceptive.

  I don't know what there is to really analyze. I don't try to trick or hurt others.
