Why does this guy says his cat misses me?

[Anonymous]

Why can’t he just say that he misses me? Lol

[Ill_made_Knight]

Maybe the cat misses you. A girl I lived with for about a year once told me the dog missed me. Miss Moo would go up the stairs and look out of the bedroom window every day at the time I would normally return home. Sad and kind of heartwarming at the same time really.

[FilmGuy93]

Because he doesn't know how you'll receive a comment that he misses you.

[WhitneySnow]

He’s projecting his feelings into his car. It’s kinda cute lol.

[TacosRAwesome]

Tbh I'd rather the cat miss me than the man.

[dustybiker]

Cat’s do keep you up at night when they are pissed. “Where is she?” 😉

[SnowedIn]

It's easier to say awkward things through our pets or objects or anything other than saying it directly.

[OfMiceandMen]

Cat must of had a connection with you, most could care less as long a they get their next meal.

[Carolus]

Women and a million whys, a man isn’t allowed to be romantic?

[Asker]

It’s not about him being romantic or not lol it’s about the indirectness like man just tell me you miss me lol

[Carolus]

Indirectness makes it interesting.

[AdithyaR]

A human missing you isn't that big of a deal but the fact that a cat actually paid attention to you enough that it notices your absence is a huge accomplishment.

[LiamJHayden]

He's probably afraid of rejection, so he displaces the sentiment by a step to avoid the possibility.

[Gummy_Cluster]

You nailed it. It's a buffer. Good cop/bad cat. Always blame it on the cat!

"Tom, I had half a sub sandwich in the fridge, have you seen it?"
"No, babe, but I noticed that the cat was hanging around the fridge earlier, and it sounded like the door opened."

[KrakenAttackin]

He is afraid if you rejecting him... again. I agree his approach is pathetic, his cat doesn't give a fuck about you.

[Asker]

I think it’s cute but I do like directness lol like I have been keeping in contact with him for the past 2 weeks with no date in sight so I would hope he has some confidence that I do like him lol

[Orion76]

Are you kidding me? ask him what is the cat making for dinner lol

[Jamie05rhs]

Because women actually love cats but they don't love men.

[Asker]

He’s a breath guy lol

[Asker]

Great*

[Jamie05rhs]

Lol okay. That's good!

[nawtee_me]

Maybe his cat misses you too…. Or maybe he misses your cat? ;)

[Asker]

Lmao he’s never seen my cat

[HippieVeganJewslim]

Maybe He’s like me and cares about evil kitties more than dang human beings.

[Blink2271]

he’s either joking or tries not to sound desperate

[Anonymous]

Maybe his cat does miss you. I think the better questions is why are you so dismissive of animals feelings.

[AbsolutelyClueless6]

Am I the only one that thinks that's kinda flippin' creepy? XD

[Asker]

I don’t think it’s creepy, I think it’s adorable lol but I do prefer him being up front

[TheAfrikan]

I guess he using it as an excuse to see you.

[exitseven]

He is trying to be ironic.

[LavLavLuv]

Maybe he’s shy

[Anonymous]

He may indirectly wants to say you his feelings

[Dav1dTh0ma389]

Likely likes you; The cat I mean
