looking forward to seeing
because TO here is a preposition and not the part of a TO + Infinitive |

Yeah,
the correct one is - I am looking forward to seeing you.
It is a simple gerund I believe.
Take care |

Note in both of Jayho�s cases it is "to seeing" not "to see"--as the others have said, "to seeing you" is correct.

Wow!
Thank you very much for all your replies. To Mowells, Brahim S, Terraview, Juvelry, Jayho and Douglas, you�ve been very helpful. Really appreciate it. I can always count on you, friends in this awesome site! It somehow makes me think, " I am looking forward to seeing you!" Hehehe
