Hello or Not


Question Posted Wednesday June 1 2005, 8:01 pm

Sometimes I feel like I'm being really rude to people, but I never know. When I say hello, it's kind of under my breath but I smile and I wave to whoever said hello to me. Sometimes someone will say hello when I'm out biking and I'm not sure if someone said hello to me or to someone else on the street, so I only turn and smile. I realized this at the supermarket when someone I didn't like too much said hi to me, and I said hi under my breath and gave a little wave. They moved by quickly, so it looked like I was waving over my shoulder. I want to seem less rude, but how? Am I even being rude?

It doesn`t mean you are rude, just shy. Next time you see someone, just look up and smile or wave and give a big "Hi!" just be really outgoing and start conversations with people that you see. Or even practice talking to yourself in the mirror, sounds crazy, but it works *lol*

Its not being rude. Its probly just that hyour shy. theres nothing wrong with that. I mean you dont hae to say hello to everyone you see bc thats just overdramatic. If someone says hey dont be shy and just say hey back bc theres nothing wrong with that. And if you feel like saying hello tosomeone and they dont say it back doesnt mean there rude either. Hope I helped

You're an introvert, like me. You don't like to be outspoken or attract too much attention. You give what you believe to be a satsifactory response, and nothing more. Am I right? Cause that's what I do too.

Personally, i don't think you are being rude. You are acknowledging when someone says hello to you, your smile and wave. thats polite and friendly :-)
