Yeah, life be that way sometimes.

But at the same time receiving just plain "Hello"s on the regular gets… Difficult.

Tell me a bit about yourself who are you? I’ve gotten burnt out by investing into playing hellos and then them ghosting so I have a difficult time responding to them now. I definitely put a lot more effort into someone that reaches out with something to kick a conversation off with.

Kind of sucks if you, the person receiving the hello, are expected to bring the conversation.

Keep at it!
