Signed into Skype-first time in a month ...Ex's name is under 'today?'

[Hazyillusions]

I wanted to add someone onto skype around 1am last night as I was chatting with him on the phone. Went into skype, haven't been on in over a month and realised that his name was under the recent section of skype? Under 'today?'

I didn't click his name, nor did I leave a message. Ex seems to have been offline the last few times I've signed in (don't know if he blocked me).

 

For people that actually use skype often and know what it means, why is his name under the 'today' section? Does this mean he might have messaged me or something. I know you can only see the message when both people are online right?

 

Urgh I shouldn't be obsessing, can't help it.

 

 

Background info-broke up with ex (mutual) because he had to go home overseas.

If he sent you a message you should be able to see it despite not being on at the same time.

But I googled it awhile ago and it says this

So since I was offline, we would both need to be online to get the message? I'm not on a cloud enabled device.

 

Also, why is he under that section? It's not a skype error is it. =/

Maybe it's a Skype error. I've had that happen a lot with my ex, and I'm fairly certain he's not attempted to contact me. I don't even know what that is about, but Skype has been wonky since its last update.

I'm not a big Skype user. Doesn't this just mean he logged on today?

[Hazyillusions]

Nah people log on all the time, it only appears there if you had some interaction with them within a certain time period.

Currently skyping my gf lemme test it out for you. One sec

[BrianH46]

I had her log off of skype then I sent a message. I then logged off and she logged back in with my message on her screen. Don't let this eat away at you. It means nothing.

[Hazyillusions]

Thanks! I remember skyping last year with him and when he would leave me offline messages and I'll come online, I couldn't receive them until he gets online himself. It happened a few times. That was obviously while he was still here and not so far away. -_-

Oh do you have the upgraded version of Skype? I googled and it says that function applies for the new one. I haven't upgraded my version yet I don't think. Maybe that's why it still says ^ what I linked on the skype website? Thanks though! You're right, I should stop worrying.

No problem, I know that feeling.
