MrsPhyno:I always feel like no one who is incapable of solving a situation has no reason to ask how you are doing with a situation. Sincerely, I always feel insulted when asked "How are you ?", I hate that question. I dont see it as a greeting, I see it as a probe. I hate being probed about my situations. |

You ask the asker HOW DO YOU DO. Both of you are eager to know each other as this is your first time of meeting. To know how each of you do. This is not a question to know how you are doing as per personaly. Its a question to know your psychology ![]() |

Atlantian:Lol. So if they can't help you, you just want them to shut up is that? |
Re: What Is The Right Response To "How Do You Do? by Heymus(m): 12:21pm On Aug 21, 2015 |
How do you do is the best answer. I have leant that more than 15yrs ago. But have never for once respond how do you do with how do you do. Just doesnt make any sense to me. I will just say fine and you? |
Re: What Is The Right Response To "How Do You Do? by Atlantian: 12:21pm On Aug 21, 2015 |
MrsPhyno:Yes! Of what use is asking "How are you ?" and you see people in serious needs and problems retorting the usual response "fine"; Meanwhile, he or she is NOT far from being 'fine'. How are you ? should mean ...How is your situation, are you alright ? Can I be of help ? |
Re: What Is The Right Response To "How Do You Do? by ahamonyeka(m): 12:25pm On Aug 21, 2015 |
The correct response is and how do you do |
Re: What Is The Right Response To "How Do You Do? by Nobody: 12:35pm On Aug 21, 2015 |
Atlantian:It's just a social pleasantry nah. People don't actually wanna know about each other's problems cause everyone's got their own. But it's still rude not to ask after people, so we all ask and we all pretend. It's even more odd to actually start telling people how you're doing when they ask. That's just life my dear we can't change that ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |

MrsPhyno: These ready-made question and answer greetings pattern is an archaic invention of our yesterday. I prefer greetings like "Good morning" "good afternoon" and "good evening" as well as "good night". But "How are you ?" my answer should be "none of your business", "How do you do?" My answer should be silence. |

Growing up i was taught that the correct response was ''and how do you do too?''. I swallowed it line, hook and sinker. But now i am grown, i feel you respond back with any meaningful response you feel comfortable with. |

lampardizik: The right response is saying "How do you do" as well, it is not a question really, it's like someone saying "good morning" you also say "good morning" back in response. It's really not a question, though it sounds like one. It's a greeting. |
