Might be short form of gonić sie (to chase one another)

You mean "Goń się"? It's not nice.

Depends on context. In some rare cases among close friends it's not an insult but a way of saying goodbye.

Unfortunatelly in general use one might probably liken it to "go and f... yourself" although it's not a perfect 1:1 translation, because in Polish "goń się" is not as vulgar as "pierd... się" which is in fact 1:1 translation of "go and f.... yourself".

Perhaps the best comparison would be simply "f...k off" for Polish "goń się".

"get lost" is better and less vulgar English translation, not so offensive like "go **** yourself" but basically same meaning.

OP, are they the type of friends who jokingly curse at each other, like some do? If so, it was meant in a joking good-bye fashion. If not, he was being nasty.

If that is not a conversation among friends then he's being nasty. She could reply:
"Wal się" - "go an f... yourself"
"Odpierdol się" - "f... off"
"Spierdalaj" - "f... off" with a diffrent twist, a bit less vulgar then "Odpierdol się"
etc.

But probably best would be to ignore the hell out of the guy, because he's just being an immature ass. "Goń się" IMO is reserved for teens. Anyone above 18yo using "goń się" is just... lame.

I wouldn't say it has as stron meaning as f*** off does, it's more like "screw you" or something...
