What is the proper response to "Good morning, how are you?"?!
Question: What is the proper response to "Good morning, how are you!?"!?
I'm just curious!. So far this morning, I've heard:
"Fine, how are you!?"
"Good morning!."
"Hello!."
"Getting ready for the long weekend!."
I've also heard:
"Sh*tty!."
"Who cares!?"
"Elvis is alive!."
"My hemorrhoids really hurt!."
"I had to break up with my boyfriend because I wanted a 5-carat ring, and he could only afford 4!."
"Meow meow meow!."
"My husband is inadequate in the bedroom!."
All of these were said with the utmost sincerity, and without a trace of kidding around!. What possesses people to say such odd things, especially in a context where such information is not warranted!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
It is really offensive (to a mannerly person) who receives a response to a question like, "Good morning, how are you!?" with anything other than, "Fine, thank you, and yourself!?" Or something similar!.
Your latter examples are from people who have obviously been raised by imbeciles, just don't care, have no manners, and/or believe they can just dump their personal information on anyone who happens to be walking by!. I don't think there is an answer to this question!. As long as people keep going in the direction they are (of living like "it's all about me!) this behaviour will continue!.
Pretty sad!. This world is really going downhill fast!.!.!.!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

You've received some very funny reactions, but I think it has to do with different people and different personalities!. How they were raised and what they were taught!. For example, someone who tells you their husband sucks in bed may have been raised to be honest with people no matter if it's something they want to hear or not!. That could also be their personality!. Brutally honest, which can help or hurt a person!. I am brutally honest but I was also raised on how to be polite and not fully speak my mind if I do not know them well!. I hope this makes sense!. I had a little trouble conveying the message! =)Www@Answer-Health@Com
The proper response is fine how are you, even if you feel like complete crap!. if you choose to say you do not feel too well, then still ask the other person how they are!. that is proper!. and why is this in health!? shouldn't it be in etiquette!? Www@Answer-Health@Com
No matter what you are really feeling it should be; Fine thank you and how is your morning!? Or anything positive close to that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Thats just how people are, sometimes people are most honest than others just to share!. Its normalWww@Answer-Health@Com
