What do you mean when you ask somebody this question? How interested are you when they start telling you their job is at stake, their partner has gone off them, they arer in arrears with the mortgage....?

If I'm asked by a friend how I am and I'm not feeling good I always ask if they want the truth or a lie , my real friends say truth. If asked in general how I am I'm always great ta

O o O oo

lol on here do you mean?

We were laughing the other day with a mail asking how are you, and said that all of the time the answer is fine thanks even if it isn't.

But you can hardly say , "omg I feel crap, the washing machine leaked, the cat ate the goldfish, I burnt the dinner, singed the OH favourite shirt, got a speeding ticket and have piles...other than that I am ok" can you?

( disclaimer, all the above ins untrue, oh apart from burning the dinner )

When I hear these words "How are you?, I'm always polite; you never know how such a question will lead to something else?

Especially on here

On the other hand, if they are being said by someone in a cold call, from some Call Centre far, far, far away, my reply is always as follows:

"God, if you'd have had my day!" and then launch into all the problems you have (fictitious or otherwise!) and don't give them a chance to get a word in edgeways! It works a treat! They give in and hang up!

And for me, it's "Therapy"

Lol, I had not thought about whether on here or in general, just curious cos you ask and get asked so often and it is really more of a courtesy without which conversations would sound quite abrupt I guess.

Sorry to hear abt your dinner, rugby, how could you?!? And what's more, are you still in trouble over it? I know I would be....

I always mean it when I ask "how are you", and I always listen to peoples problems if they decide to tell me, I just like people full stop, and lifes rich variety of stories, it's way better than tele, hugz n stuff, (agony) Aunt Ruby mwah, xxxxxx

usually i do just say fine thanks, just now and again i'll say well since you asked............

its in how you ask i think, if you look someone in the eye and say "so how ARE you?" you'll probably get the full story! xx

The standard response to 'How are you?' is: 'Fine thanks, you?'.

It is not an invitation to relate your entire recent life history to the person asking the question because, to be frank, they don't really give a flying fuck.

So, how are you all?

Plus.... if I've had a really "BAD DAY", I insert a little malice (not too much) into my tone.

Afterwards, I feel marvellous!!

ok then, most men that send me that message usually follow it up with "can you meet today?", whereas most of the women that ask me usually follow it up with "tell me more", vive la difference

I actually do ask those I know wanting to know how they are.

If it's a first meet saying "How do you do?" is more a pleasant greeting.

Lets face it If a met anyone for the first time and asked "How are you? they are hardly likely to say "I'm constipated" or "I can shit through the eye of a needle!".
