"... I was like"如何翻译?

Question

I thought I was going to be more cool, calm and collected , but as soon as I saw him I was like, I missed him.
我原本以为我会比现在更冷静，更平静，更镇定，但是一看到他，我就觉得自己非常想念他.

此处的"I was like"有何作用,如何翻译?

Answer 1

I was like ,里面的was like是相像的意思。
就是指曾经你是那样子的。强调过去是那个样子，说明非常想念他的那个心情。

Answer 2

I was like him, 我曾经像他
as soon as I saw him I was like：一看到他像曾经的我

like这里是介词，不是动词

定语从句吧。
as soon as I saw him（whom） I was like,
一旦看到我喜欢的他。本回答被提问者采纳

Answer 4

i was like是看起来像的意思，就是你翻译的“我觉得”我想念他

Answer 5
