Most definitely a machine translation!

The second part definitely sounds like it should be \"you are mine\", rather than \"my\", as suggested by Sibyl.

Thank you (breathlessly)!
agree patpending : don't know whether sounding breathless is the mark of a hypocrite...but that's heucheln all right...or is this a machine translation of "pants"?

I suspect "heucheln" is a typo and should be "hecheln"
agree Robinwood : Sure, a machine translation!

Daniel, you have an exciting girlfriend. The words are an approximation of German but not the real thing. My translation is just a guess as to what she was trying to convey. Maybe she got it from an online computer translation - the words tend to get all distorted.

Heucheln actually means to be a hypocrite or to simulate. Maybe she typed in trying and it came out heucheln. Übersehen actually means to overlook or miss. Maybe she typed in looking forward to seeing you.
