So what does that mean pls?

Greet only the people who appreciate it and leave the rest. It's the effect of Western civilization on culture. People don't value each other any more.

Thanks alot

He even asked what's up?
Women and problem are like Siamese twins.
A good morning you didn't mean which is obviously obligatory and a heartfelt "how far....".

It may be to him so get use to it. You are only two years older than him and a man for that matter.

Buh is two years not a big gap?

NO it is not. It is a mere number. Five years or more and I would've been whooping his arse here for you.

Thanks a lot.
