Te amo como conejo

Question

"Te amo como conejo"

Okay, obviously this is translating to me very literally as " I love you like a rabbit", but what is the indicated translation?

For example,other phrases like "mi media naranja" literally translates to the "other half of my orange" but the indicated translation is "soul mate" or "better half".

Native speakers, help?

Answer 1

Maybe it is something to do with the mating proclivities of rabbits.

Answer 2

Did you see this or was it used as a full and complete sentence. Or, was it used as a part only of a longer sentence such as:

Te amo como conejo a las zanahorias

Such a sentence might mean "I love you like a rabbit in the carrots". This might suggest loving as much as a rabbit loves carrots.

Your example sentence would certainly make more sense, Moe :) - FELIZ77, Mar 25, 2015

Answer 3

Nope, it was used as is, by itself. I could certainly see the connection to loving someone like a rabbit loves carrots....but...uhm....I could also see the connection to loving someone in the way rabbits mate as well!
