1.Looks like you're headed off again. Where to this time?
2.Looks like you head off again. Where to this time?
3.Looks like you're heading off again. Where to this time? |
1.Can I use #2 and #3 as the same meaning as #1?
2.If not, can you tell me why?
Thanks. |

| #1 and #3 are acceptable and mean the same. Don't use #2. The simple present tense is for usual or general actions, not to point to something happening at the time of speaking. |
