So I took the time to email several guys over the past 24 hours.

"unbound", to me, means fickle, undecided, unsure, uncertain, lost and confused.
good luck!

I would interpret unbound as not bound. :) Not fitting into set boundaries, a little wild, free, rambling, erratic, sometimes easily distracted, spontaneous.
Don't be scared to ask him to clarify. All of our interpretations could be wrong. If you want to get to know him, get him to explain. I'm sure he'd want you to understand him fully instead of guessing.

Webster's take was:

unbound
2 entries found for unbound.
To select an entry, click on it.
unbindunbound

Main Entry: un·bound
Pronunciation: -'baund
Function: adjective
: not bound: as a (1) : not fastened (2) : not confined b : not having the leaves fastened together c : not bound together with other issues d : not held in chemical or physical combination

--My take is pretty much the same. He must be a carefree guy. Free being the operative word.

I had the same kind of impression that you did.

The best way to know is to ask him. *I* don't think you sound like an idiot. In fact you can be humorous and playful about the way you ask.

Hey I never "met" a guy whose personality is a little "unbound" and wondering what exactly you mean by that? Is your personality Hercules unchained? Is your personality likes to be off leash and run around the yard barking? Is your personality have many different faces like ...?

You get the idea.

OR you can just ask in a plain, straightforward manner since that IS ambiguous.

I'm not sure how to interpret that either...I'd probably think he was kind of weird and probably move on to the next.

I agree with Stacey and the poster (sorry - it's early, can't remember names at the moment) who said that, to her, unbound meant "erratic."

I would go with the erratic, unhinged possibly, "all over the place" definition.

In addition, I may roll my eyes and think the guy was self-absorbed with delusions of himself. Maybe. It's too early to tell though.

Go with it for a while anyway. Might be interesting!
