I find it interesting when people say things like, "when a guy messages with just "hey" or "hello" they have bad intentions

But what about when a girl does it? Legit happened to me on a different website. I get this message at my inbox, "Hey :)" So I replied with, "Hey there, how's it going?"

As far as I'm aware it's a real person, roughly 15 to 20 minutes away from my location. Anyway, I think it's interesting that whole topic, "well, guys shouldn't do that, or guys are creepy if they do that" yeah well happened to me from the opposite sex. Is it creepy and they shouldn't do that as well???

Maybe, that's how some people start a conversation? I've never started an online conversation with, "Hi I'm Mark and I have brown hair and blue eyes, tell me about you!!" I honestly think a "Hi there" or "Hello" is perfectly fine. Passing a stranger on the sidewalk, it might just be a quick eye contact and "hey" or a head nod, otherwise nothing more than that.

I don't mean to upset or offend anyone, but when I see someone say something bad about people who some are genuinely good, or have good intentions, don't throw me under an umbrella is all I want to say.

Sure but online it feels like such a waste of time 😆
“Hey”
“Hey”
“How are you”
“Good and you”
“Good”
-silence-
“So what are you up to”

And so on. I probably had hundreds of intro’s like that and it’s pointless to some extent. I can already tell I won’t like the rest of the communication.
It’s not that I want to be rude or disinterested, but I’m already annoyed when conversations all go like that 😂 if people want my time which I find very valuable these days, they better say something worthwile or I won’t reply much and definitely not deep. I have no need for superficial time loss 🤷🏻‍♀
@kimmy159 At least on your profile you've made posts, there's something in your about me. So, if I sent you an initial message I would have something of substance to say.

@Hinckley I don’t expect everyone to do so just to be clear but if every conversation is just general how you doings without telling me about your day or deeper thoughts after a while, then why converse to begin with hehe
@kimmy159I agree with you.
