Thread 33305146

Should I continue to thank someone who holds the door for me, but never makes eye contact or say anything after I thank them?

Do they not want me to say anything to them? Is that why they avoid eye contact?

>>33305146 (OP)
You are overthinking a meaningless interaction.
I probably held doors open for five people yesterday and didn't look them in the eye.

>>33305146 (OP)
Yeah, keep saying thank you

>>33305146 (OP)
Yes. Say thank you.

>>33305151
But were you expecting a thank you or any form of acknowledgement?

>>33305151
That's what happens when two autistic subhuman morons interact: one making a ceremony of holding doors open and the other ruminating about whether it is normal.

So what's the point in thanking someone that doesn't care about your existence? You people are weird, man. That's not emotionally intelligent.

>>33309725
to potentially demonstrate to impressionable persons (children etc.) what it means to be a citizen of the polis who embodies virtue (whether they're actually around or not)

you do gratitude because it helps you reach your telos, not with any expectation of reciprocity or acknowledgement

>>33305290
No. Its just a cultural social convention. Like other anon said, youre overthinking it.

>>33309725
An autist lecturing people on emotional intelligence.

>for the invisible children that don't exist because their invisible non-existent parents don't know how to raise them
that is fucking retarded lol what?!

>you do gratitude because it helps you reach your telos, not with any expectation of reciprocity or acknowledgement
So basically you're just jacking off to your own sense of pride while you fuck yourself in the ass with a virtue shaped dildo. If you're so self absorbed that you don't give actually give a shit about me, why should I give a shit about you?

You're just a robot mindlessly following some ridiculous program that you didn't even write.

I'm not going to be pushed aside and walked all over by people like you.

I am the one who is important here, not you. My needs come first. Everyone else can get to the back of the line where they belong.

You got that? Good.

>>33309781
You're the type of retard that would thank a black guy for fucking his wife.

no the sad one here is you

>>33305146 (OP)
Don't you have a better problem to think about? it looks like females thinking about of some random guy liking some random story/post on their ig and ruminating about if this is him "shooting his shot". Like the other anon said, is a meaningless interaction, it doesn't meant anything. If you say "thanks" it shows that you have some courtesy, but if you don't say anything it doesn't matter either.

>>33310222
>You're the type of retard that would thank a black guy for fucking his wife.
I really don't understand this cuckoldry shit. It seems like some form of faggotry. Getting off on another man fucking your wife.

>>33305146 (OP)
Yes, you should.

You have two problems here. One is that you're expecting some kind of reaction, and getting bothered when you don't get it. The other problem is you're trying to figure out someone else's thoughts when they haven't expressed it.

Just say "thanks" because you're thankful. If he doesn't want you to say that, he can express his displeasure. Stop overthinking all this shit.

>>33310987
>figure out someone else's thoughts when they haven't expressed it.
But they have expressed it. They've expressed their thoughts very loud and very clear.

No eye contact, looking down, body turned away from you, staying silent. All signs they want zero interaction with you. Because who knows, maybe you'll start talking about your boring dog with them for ten minutes or you'll spit in their face.

Have you not worked in the service industry? You get in line, you get served, you get the fuck out of their face... NEXT!

If you don't thank someone for holding the door open for you, you look like a cunt

>>33311042
No one is going to upset about you thanking then, are you insane? You don't have to stop to do it, you can say it as you're walking. I have never in my life see anyone get upset by this. Are you retarded?

>>33314240
*going to be

>>33314240
Upset? Where in my spastic rant did you get "upset" from?

When a customer service employee processes your complaint with the company's service and they avoid talking to you anymore than they have to, they're not upset with you, they're just indifferent to your existence.

Upset... are YOU retarded?

And thank you.

I think more context is required.

Retarded frog thread
Anti-social behavior is not the opposite of cuckoldry or even being introverted. It's behavior that's actively harmful to society. If you hold a door open for someone, that is a good sign for the society that you are in. Similarly, the person responding with a "thank you" is an acknowledgement of your gesture. Both are relatively minor, so minor as to not be something that fully registers with either party, and that's a good thing, because it means socially-beneficial behavior is commonplace. Young people nowadays, especially Americans, are so buckbroken that they believe that ANY form of deference or kindness to another human being is a sign of weakness. Selfish behavior is seen as a positive, when such behavior can only be inherently anti-social. If you piss in the pool, others will too. If you start justifying shoplifting, other people will too. Society as a whole will degrade, and you will live in a world of shortsighted people with not a single concern for how they affect others. "Freedom" becomes an absence of structure, an absence of civilization, and humanity returns to a dark age where fear reigns.

Only if they were expecting a thank you. Otherwise, nobody cares. Are you one of those retards that expects a thank you?

Thanks ChatGPT

>>33318913
Sure are a lot of words I wouldn't expect ChatGPT to use

>>33319954
Your response is exactly what ChatGPT would say.

>>33305146 (OP)
You shouldn't do shit. Do you want to thank them?Say thank you. They don't owe you shit either. If they don't want to say you're welcome and invite you to their place for tea, they don't have to.
This interaction lasts for 2,5 seconds and then focus on where you were actually going.

2.7 seconds, actually, bitch. And that included the blowjob.

>>33320681
Incredibly based

>>33305146 (OP)
You should follow them as far as you can get, maintaining eye contact and thanking them until they acknowledge you.

>>33305146 (OP)
Sometimes I think I'm autistic, and then I see threads like this and realize that nah, I just have zero practice when it comes to social interaction. I might be bad at being social with people, but at least I understand mundane shit like how to handle a situation where you hold a door for someone and they say thank you without creating an autistic sperg thread on 4chan about it. Jesus Christ. I feel really sorry for you tards.

>>33322615
That's stalking and illegal

>>33322902
Well, if it helps you feel any better, you're still a retard for getting annoyed at a thread like this.

It's a thread, get over yourself, Mister Christ.

>>33322902
>how to handle a situation where you hold a door for someone and they say thank you
That's not even the situation OP is talking about. You're an idiot that can't even read properly. I think you have worse problems than being a social retard.

>>33322982
No it's not. Perfectly fine.

>>33323581
You idiot.

>>33323581
It's not

>>33327356
Relax, my phren, everything will be alright.

>>33309725
I hold the door for you because I like the door being held for me because door handles are gross and doors shutting in my face when not held is annoying. I don't expect a thank you, but it feels good hearing it. For the time I am holding the door, I care about your existance because me holding the door is me showing that you are a person just like I am a person. Golden rule, treat others how you want to be treated. I want to have you hold the door for me if I am behind you, so I hold the door for you when you are behind me. I say thank you because I like hearing thank you. Appreciate good deeds no matter how small.

>>33311042
I don't look because I am in a hurry butnot too much of a hurry to be inconsiderate and not hold the door. I hear thanks and I say yup or give a small wave without looking back. I like hearing thanks but I don't hold the door in order to hear thanks.

Aww you two are so cute. Come here, lemme give you a hug with my pussy.

>>33331969
I think that's just confirmation bias. You're seeing what you want to see cause you just hate frogs. Like how racists just hate blacks and browns for no reason.

>>33327356
Is it...

>>33334536
Certainly

>>33333102
What does your pussy taste like?

>>33333110
That's not confirmation bias, that's baader meinhof.

>>33305146 (OP)
You mog me, but in an autistic way. An interaction like this would never even cross my mind longer than it lasted.

>>33305146 (OP)
Yes retard.

>>33338536
Like kittens ^_^

>>33340415
>do something because someone else said so
No retard.
