GUYS: What does it mean when a guy says you're the only girl he wants to knock off?

I think he uses a special type of English, which is unique in a sense that to “knock off” someone means something nice. Either that, or you should be looking for another friend.

Why don’t you ask him? He knows best. Context is all.

Welcome to fluther.

I’m honestly not sure, but maybe he means he wants to knock you off your feet?

Welcome to Fluther, @Valenzcia18.

Al Capone used to say he wanted to knock someone off, but it wasn’t a compliment. He had his henchman do it with a Thompson sub-machine gun. I sure hope that’s not what he means. I can just tell you that the Urban Dictionary isn’t aware of a meaning that sounds positive in the context given.

Hopefully, he doesn’t mean it like the old Mafia bosses did, and you’ll be around here after asking him to explain the aphorism. If so, please let us in on the meaning he attaches to it.

I know what knock up means but knock off is a new one unless it means murder. I don’t think it sounds like a good thing.

I looked the word up

And it means to have sex with someone. So nope he didn’t mean anything bad by it :)

You do realize that when he says “only” he is only talking about this evening or this week, right?

He sounds like a real classy guy <eye roll>.

Knock off means kill someone. Knock up means get them pregnant. Maybe he just got the saying wrong. Is English his second language? My husband confuses words like up, out, down, off all the time.

Knock off also means a fake of a designer item, like a Rolex knock off, but that is a different use of the expression altogether.

I think he wants to knock you off his to-do list. He wants to take you to bed. But he doesn’t seem to have made any indication of interest beyond that.

I have no idea how old you are, but do you want to have sex with him? And are you okay with it being just a few times, or are you looking for a long term commitment? What do you want?

Curious as to what country you’re in. Taht might make the usage clearer.

In America to “knock up” someone is to get them pregnant: in England it is to wake them in the morning. “Knock off” is to kill someone in the US, as @JLeslie said so I’m not sure what your guy meant.

Where I come from, knocking someone off means killing them. Umm…

Hmmmm, that’s a strange one….I never heard of knock off before except for the “killing someone” context of it. I’d definitely be confused too if a guy said that to me…..I would of like “WHAT do you want to do to me?”

He wants to either kill you or fuck you.

Whatever he meant, he could have used more… charming terms…

I definitely see a connection between “knock off” and “Do”. As in I want to do you.

Knock off? Pretty sure he mean knock up? Can’t imagine why anyone would want “knock off” someone.

Welcome to Fluther.

I think it means that you were meant for each other. That is, he is the right guy for you because, as @the100thmonkey puts it, he uses such charming language, even though you haven’t a clue what it means, and you’re the right gal for him because you then ask a bunch of perfect strangers what he meant with his non-standard expression.

What could possibly go wrong?

Incidentally, I’m giving this a Good Question because it’s an excellent question to ask “what does this mean?” when you don’t understand, and that should never be discouraged. But you’re asking the wrong people.

@gorillapaws @the100thmonkey BAHAHAHAHA!
