Excited about the future.
Contexto cultural
The concept of 'forventningens glæde' (the joy of anticipation) is a core part of Danish culture. It is often said that the time spent looking forward to an event is just as important as the event itself. Using 'Jeg glæder mig til...' in a professional setting is a way to show you are a 'team player' and enthusiastic about your work without being overly aggressive. It is considered very polite to say 'Jeg glæder mig til at se dig' a few days before a planned meeting. It confirms the appointment and shows warmth.

When texting friends, just write 'Glæder mig!' It's the most natural way to respond to plans.
The 'Mig' Rule
