What does no contar mean?

ExpressionNeutro

not to count

Something that sounds like a commitment and is not one. «We must meet up one of these days» is the classic case: everybody says it, and nobody holds anyone to it.

Decir «ya quedaremos» no cuenta como hacer planes.
Saying you will meet up is not meeting up.
