What does this sentence mean: te va a esperando?
I am searcing the net for some good telenovelas and I stumpled across one called Soy tu dueña. It doesn't look good, but I was trying to figure out what one of the characters said:
te va a esperando? - I've tried translating myself and I didn't come up with a good one. Is he saying: Are you waiting for me? The translation tool wasn't any better either. I know I shouldn't get caught up on this, but damn' it I'm curious.

It's the first sentence the guy says after he closes the door....

He really says tstabasperando instead of a clear "te estaba esperando" that's why you didn't catch it, you're not deaf, people speak omitting vowels and joining words.
He says: "Te estaba esperando," which means I was waiting for you.
"Te estaba esperando" is one possibility.
There are also regional ways to say this too, which is what you might be hearing, ie: "Te anda esperando" or "Te va esperando." They both mean that someone is hanging around waiting for you. The nuance for both is that of activity.
