When a guy says, "let's see how it goes" what does he mean?

Men are simple creatures. Let's see how it goes means he doesn't want to over commit just yet. Why? Well, in my experience it could be because:

1. Some women get too full on too quickly and that can ruin a good thing. If a guy give the "lets go slow and steady" vibe then he doesn't want to trigger a woman's "OMG lets get married tomorrow" reaction (thats what he is worried about, not saying you'd do this).

2. He is excited but doesn't know the right words. "Let's see how it goes" could be him being excited.

3. He is worried about hurting you if it doesn't work out. Despite the bad reputation, no man wants to break up with a woman and hurt her feelings. He might be guarded for this reason.

Don't read too much into it. It's a green light, so apply the gas and move forwards (but don't floor it yet). Just let him know that you dig him but that he's going to have to bring his A game to keep you because you are not going to settle for a dud.

Hope this helps!

I think it's kind of a Diplomatic sentence.

According to me ,He's unpredictable.

I means he doesn't want to make any promises that he can't keep and is taking it a day at a time. In a worst case scenario, it would mean that he wants to keep things vague to have control over the situation.

It kinda means exactly what it says. He wants to date you and see if you are compatible and get along and if not then you'll stop dating

Its literal meaning is the only meaning.
