I don't know what it means with some people.

"Have you dated anyone?"

"Maybe." (when I knew the answer was yes)

"Will you call me sometime this week?"

"Maybe." (I knew the answer was no)

'cause with some people maybe really does mean maybe.

sometimes it means you're hiding something or dont want to say no or yes.

D8 and sometimes it means one specifically every time you say it BUT YOU CAN'T PREDICT IT.
UNLESS YOU KNOW THE ANSWER ALREADY.

I FREAKING HATE THAT WORD.
