the true meaning of “how are you”

did yall know that when someone asks “how are you?” you’re supposed to kinda tell them what you’re up to on top of how you’re feeling? it’s supposed to be kind of a nudge to open up a topic. not just respond with “I’m fine!” because that’s considered dry

was everybody in on this? because I had felt really stupid once i found out… DX 

many interactions actually have double meanings to them like that, and i just fail to realize haha

wait is that really so? i've never learnt it that way. i thought "what are you up to/what are you doing" was already a common question in order to elicit that type of response

that’s a good point haha. i think “what are you up to” is more clear xD
