Do you say hello to strangers if they extend a hello to you?

Question

Or do you just keep going?

I always say hello, it makes me proud. :-)

Answer 1

I believe it very important to extend the same pleasantries as it may put a smile on someones face to know the the world has not become a cold heartless place. It costs you nothing and it will make you feel good. Even in the animal kingdom, animals greet each other. It's a good way to get to know the world you live in. Have a good day and spread the smiles.

Answer 2

I definitely say hello to strangers if they say hello first... in fact, I make a point to say hello and throw a wave to everyone, especially when I'm walking or driving around in my neighborhood. What really gets me, however, is how many people don't wave back!! It's like people are caught off guard by the site of someone saying hello... then it makes me realize what a sad, sad world we live in today. I don't think there's anything shallow about pleasantries, do you?

Answer 3

I always say hello back. Normally this is just a friendly gesture. But, if you get a "hello" from a stranger and it feels "off" then, I personally would just move on a little quicker,lol

Answer 4

Of course! Oftentimes, I don't even wait for them to say "hello;" I'll say it first. And it makes me feel good, too. : )

It's interesting to note what a sincere greeting can do for someone. Some people respond by lifting their shoulders and heads a little higher, usually accompanied by a smile. I think it's just the phenomenon that someone....anyone....has taken notice of your presence in this world. I know I like it when someone says hi! Why not spread that joy around? : )

Answer 5

10. in accordance to production notes, the movie replaced into stimulated through an experience from director Bryan Bertino's early existence: a stranger got here to his abode soliciting for someone who replaced into not there, and Bertino later realized that vacant residences contained locally were damaged into that nighttime. In interviews, Bertino reported he replaced into "very stimulated" with a number of the theories circulating on the web about the "genuine activities" the movie is allegedly in conserving with, yet suggested his significant thought replaced into Helter Skelter, a genuine crime e book about the 1969 Manson kinfolk murders.

Answer 6

I always say hello back, It's just nice, what if you said hey to a stranger, or someone you thought you knew but it turns out they weren't...

Answer 7

Usually not, but I can't even recall this ever happening in the first place. Unless of course it's a guy that wants to pick you up but usually a casual, normal "hello" doesn't happen in Europe...

Answer 8

I always say hello, and I am the one who usually says it first!

Answer 9

otherwise... probably yes, but then I'll keep on moving, if my intuition tells me so, no matter who is there.
