That is a question only a person who is uncomfortable socially would ask. To everyone else....to just strike up a conversation is a normal way to meet people.

@anythingoes477 Maybe you did not really comprehend the question. No one should feel entitled to a response to any question they get in their head to ask.
No one should feel comfortable crossing boundaries.

@anythingoes477 uncomfortable socially? Or just introverted?

@SW-User Others don't just know---or assume you have boundaries...and if so what they are. One never "expects" a response to a hello......but they are saying that to open a door to you. If YOU chose not to go thru it......that's up to you...but to others who are friendly it's simply a thing to do.....to say something out of the blue.

@BryanSunshine "Uncomfortable socially" is a kind a way to say introverted or socially dysfunctional.

@anythingoes477 Lol. Entitlement came in blocking me when I asked him why he thought I would answer that qn not knowing him.
I think that was a valid qn....don't just go asking strangers personal qns expecting a reply. If they don't respond, have the manners to accept it.

@anythingoes477 you seem to think that “introverted” and “socially disfunctional” are the same thing.

@SW-User But some good things can come where you least expect them to be. I had no expectation you'd respond to my comment---and you had no idea I would respond to yours. But we both did and now we're talking--sharing thoughts. And is't that the whole point?

@anythingoes477 I know this much, I'd never come to your inbox and ask you anything personal. I'd probably skirt around it a little bit to judge your response before I dive in. And whereas that might be a different due to so many issues.... the 'pouty tantrum as displayed by a block' is just childish entitlement to something they thought they should have just because they asked.
It would have gone ignored had he not also blocked me...it is that entitlement that really grates on my nerves.
And perhaps all my annoyance is coming on this person, because I've just had to deal another extremely entitled and disrespectful person before I got on here.

@SW-User History can color one's outlook on others--for sure. Sorry you had bad cross your path. We all have been there...done that. Now that we have "skirted" a bit-------I'd love to talk to you from time to time. Friend me?? I'd like to get to know you.

@anythingoes477 I'm sorry. I am really not in the mindspace to invest in friendships. That is one thing that is happening with me right now.. so you may be right on the socially uncomfortable place.

@SW-User I had to ask.....if attraction is there for any reason...it's the guy thing to do. I hope you get thru this and end up in a better place. My loss...I'm sure....but I respect your wishes.
