JCDenton  +  475010 Sat, 09 Feb 08 06:40 PM Hi my englishforums friends, Can you please help me with this sentence: "Well, you got me hanging.". I heard this phrase in a movie, where FBI agent was questioning the suspect about the missing guy. That agent said something in this way: "Hey, I know that you've been giving this guy a lift for two weeks, all of a sudden he's got that money in a bank." (of course, no problem for me), but that criminal answered him sarcasticly: "Well, you got me hanging." Please, do you know what it is? I'm sure that for native speakers it will be no problem....Somehow I feels that it means:"Well, you caught me off the guard", but I'm not sure.  many thanks in advance and nice weekend to all of you. regards JCDenton Joined on Tue, Jul 3 2007 Regular Member 658 Regards
