If the tense is "Are you seeing someone?" then it means "Are you romantically connected right now?"   These can have the meaning you describe: On your vacation, did you see anyone [from your home town, etc.] On your vacation, will you see anyone [e.g., your parents, etc.]     Grammar Geek Joined on Tue, Jan 10 2006 Veteran Member 19,669 Barbara, who answers in American English.
