One word greetings

I’ve been a member of similar worlds for a bit of time and I’ve always found it interesting that in many woman’s comments they will put a comment like “ if you message me with just a Hi I will block you”. I will say that for most men on here their ability to make that first attempt at introduction in is real hard. Confidence doesn’t always come to even those with great personalities and good hearts. Men and woman’s literary skills vary greatly. I read the great posts you ladies make because of your ability to turn even the smallest thought into a novel the size of war and peace. Men like to condense. We turn our great masterpieces of thoughts into the coles notes of writing. Next time you ladies get a greeting like 🙃 maybe wait to see what the second message contains Before blocking and missing that Leo Tolstoy

Your point of one-word replies is not restricted to the PM's guys send to women. You'll find that a huge percentage of people who regularly use this website (men and women) will reply to a post using one-word answers... IF you're lucky to get that much out of them!

What the vast majority of people do on this website is respond with a cursory 'push' of their heart button instead of using words. The heart button can mean anything, but for the most part is means as much as a one-word texted answer.

So before you go off again accusing women of being too wordy and not understanding how the male mind works in social settings such as these, I think it's incumbent upon men to acquire enough social skills early in life so that when placed in social settings of any kind, they do not shoot themselves in the foot by coming across as being either socially inept or functionally illiterate.
