"Me too" and "me neither" I have one question about the usage of "me too" and "me neither". Assume that both you and I like fish. Then, you say "I like fish" and I say "Me too." If neither you nor me like fish, I think "I don't like fish. Me neither." is correct. However, is "I don't like fish. Me too." correct in this situation? In other words, do you use "me too" when you agree with a negative opinion?

For me, you use "me too" when you agree with a positive statement : -I would love some chocolate -Me too! ... and "me neither" when you agree with a negative statement: -Bleah, I don't think chocolate is the best idea. -Me neither ! So, in the fish case I would use "me neither" or "neither do I" to say that, like you, I don't like it. ^^

You could also say, as a response to "I don't like fish": "I don't either." Jennifer is correct that when both people agree they like something, we say "I like ____ / Me, too OR So do I" and when they both don't like something we say, "I don't like _____ / Me neither OR Neither do I OR I don't either."

I understand your question! If you say "I like fish" I say "me either" or "me too". But, if is negative "I don´t like fish", I say "me neither". You can´t use "me too" here. I hope that helps you!

Both the answers you have got are perfectly correct. BUT I think that even though it might not be correct gramatically a lot of native speakers MIGHT use 'me too' in the situation you outlined above.
