my husband got this email from a supposedly friend in mexico not long after returning from a visit in mexico to see his family. I speak some spanish and i know that te amo means i love you. but i also think te quiero means i love you.. when i asked him about this email he says she did not mean it like that. he says she is a friend. Could he be lying. what does this mean.
