Based on rules of English usage which restrict the pairing of two negatives within a statement (and a loose mimickry of mathematical rules when dealing with two or more negatives)”me neither” would seem a logical way to arrive at the meaning you intended, but “me neither” is actually used to exclude a single (or group) of variables. “Me neither” explains that it is NOT you and NOT me. What he intended to communicate to you would have been best said by simply saying “me too”. This is inclusive, or ” it is me AND it is you”.

If you said “I’m not a girl”… and then it is okay for the other to say “Me neither”. That means “I am not a girl either”.

But if you said “I’m a guy” and he said “me neither” it would not have made as much sense so it is better to use “me too” instead.

The fact that neither of you are not native English speakers is, uh, rampantly obvious. The answer to your question is, “No!” His English was in no way correct. And now having completely destroyed and denied his manhood in its entirety, he now has to figure out and to explain exactly what he IS! Me, too, neither.

No it is not correct to say that. It is the wrong context. eg ‘I don’t like apples’ and then the answer could be ‘me neither’. It is an agreement to a negative statement. You saying I am a guy is not a negative, its stating a fact.

No, thats not the same. It would be used as if you said “im not a girl, and he said me neither” (or me either)

Oi Paulo,

No you have to say me too because me neither means you are not agreeing so just say me too.

No me neither is like saying not me he has to say me too

No lo que dijo “me neither” es como si esta diciendo yo no, tiene que decir “me too” que quere decir yo tambien

you say “me neither” when both of you are saying no to the same thing.

you say “me too” when both of you are saying yes to the same thing.

so he should have said “me too”, because you’re both saying “yes, i’m a guy”.
