This is the first time that This is the first time that I've heard of a male being enigmatic and hard to understand. Isn't it always the opposite? Anyways, the word Hi can be very suggestive. I remember a few times that my X came out showcasing new cloths, and all I could manage to say was Hi. She liked the effect and the way I said the word. Anyhow, the person saying Hi is more important than the word itself. A good looking guy walking up to you and pulling down his shades and staring into your eyes saying Hi .... Is much better than an ugly shorting coming up and saying, Hi how are you doing this fine evening.
well typing hi is what happens for people who's socialization skills are at lvl 1 although in real life, saying hi is the minimum of letting your presence be known~
On a more serious note I guess its because of shyness and lack the of a topic to talk about. Not everybody can be like Na Hwang Jae (Skill of lure)
IRL, maybe the guy doesn't have enough calorie to build up courage to talk to the girl and make long conversation. So they used up the calorie to only build up courage and say one sentence Spoiler Hi just saying
*hypothetical thoughts of Hi-kun(pure kid lvl 1)* -ok... this time I'm going to chat with this girl... she seems friendly enough to chat with me....YOSHAA!! LETS DO THIS!!! *tap tap...tap* -"Hi" -aaaaaAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAaaaaAAAaaa -is she going to reply? I hope she noticed... what am I going to say next?.... shit haven't thought of anything.... hmm... maybe ' do you like dogs?.... nonono I think she's a cat person... but no how about...*murmur* *ping* [Girl-san is offline] -hah bummer... oh well lets try again tomorrow... **repeat
Actually, I do that. And that's because I grew in a high school where we are all males fro four straight years, so in the end, it's kind of awkward approaching the opposite gender. I tried dating sites, but what I'm after are conversations, so that I can get used to it for a bit. I have female friends in college, but generally, we don't speak about open topics, until just recently. Although saying Hi worked with one person after I told her my intention, we ended chatting pretty much daily and had an open conversation (although that's an anonymous chat) but ended up revealing a few stuff. In summary, most of the time, I just don't know how to start a conversation with women. That's it. Since most of the topics I know do not relate to anything mainstream that most females talk about. e.g. showbiz, fashion, k-pop, dramas, etc.
I agree with Ai chan! Simply saying hi is a terrible start! >.< I mean, I never used any dating site yet, but I would definitely insta-ignore anyone that says "hi" and nothing else. I think that's also annoying tbh, I don't like people that start conversations with "hi" on the cellphone... I usually leave those hanging. I mean, if they had something important to say, why did they didn't say it? 95% of the time I don't chat in real time on the phone, so needing to answer to receive the reply is plain annoying to me.
sorry this cat never goes to dating site~ also this cat say hi this cat is noob so please bear with it………… …………this cat actually just blend with other~ forget how
Hi howareyu today, you look beautiful. Aww is that **** where do you get that? Oh yes people can be jerk sometimes...
Problem is not the first thing they say is 'hi'. Problem is the only thing they say are 'hi'. I'm from Malaysia.
I say hi with a smile sometimes so I can expect a smile back which can be considered a good sign, anyway I do it so it's seen because it would be lame to start conversation, see she's not responding, go offline, come back after a few hours, see she replied and then you reply but she's offline...
