Lack of trust in people, fear of opening up because people might see your problems as weaknesses and take advantage if you through them.
The question is too vague to answer. What circumstances are you talking about?
Because if I told the truth, I'd be bombarded with questions that I don't want to answer
Because most often when we say we aren't, no one cares or they tell us to get over it. Or worse they say it's our fault.
Because other people still wouldn't really give a shit tbh and/or give shit advice and/or won't understand either way. People also jugde you and so on or dont believe it.
I say it when I don't want to talk about it. If it's my family asking; I'll say "I'm fine" because I don't want to worry them. Over half the time, I'm dying for someone to talk to in those instances.
Bc I dont have the nerves to explain that shit again to everybody which come with complete useless sentences...
either the person asking me has proven themselves to not be trustworthy, or that whoever i am asking is asking at a wrong time.
Because they hate being asked questions and people digging into their private lives.
to not be the center of attention. to not make it seem that theyre weak.
Most of them afraid to say what they actually feel because of many reasons like
To be judged
May be people would hate them
To hurt again and many more
It takes efforts to make them open about there issures
For some people, talking about their emotions is really difficult
Because they know the people that ask don't really want to know.
It’s either pride, shyness or they are just reserved
They don't want to talk about their problems and therefore they give that answer.
Many reasons. The reason I would say "Im fine" could vary but most likely I would be saying "Im fine" because I dont think the other person will care or understand
Because I’m feeling fine, I’m not bad I’m not great I’m just fine
Probably because they either don't feel like unburdening their problems on someone else, or figure other people aren't actually interested.
With men they want to look tough.
With women they want you to figure it out, or they will get very angry.
Because weakness is shameful. There nothing wrong. I am strong. I can handle it. Asking for help is for bigger things or weaker people. I got this.
Because no one actually cares when they ask if you're ok
So that people will leave them alone and so that they won't bother them.
It is an automated response basically saying I don't feel like talking about it.
Because most people don't actually care if you are not fine and you are more likely to be mocked/excluded if you say you are not fine.
Fucked up
Insecure
Neurotic
Emotional
Because people hate to open up about how they are really feeling. Usually driven by fear
Because a) they dont want to drive people away and b) a lot of the time the ones that do stick around dont know how to help.
Because people usually ask “how are you?” without really caring how you are
They don’t want you to worry about them. Even if there is something seriously going on, they don’t want to burden you with their problems.
Because nobody wants to really hear the truth. Trump taught us that. lol
Probably same reason guys do. It’s embarrassing to admit their vulnerabilities.
Cause nobody wants to hear about your bullshit. Everyone has their own problems.
Sometimes it’s like telling your scared self you’re not afraid.
Sometimes it’s like a fake smile.
Because I don't wanna bore people with my little problems and feelings so I just say "I'm fine"
Eh just can't find a way to express the true feeling within I guess
In part for privacy reasons and in part to not come across as being needy.
no one wants to hear a long story about why you are not
i dont want to worry people
i am strong i can deal with any problem myself.
Excellent Q! I know when my SO said this, it was time to leave!
MOST TERRIFYING WORDS said by ANY WOMAN!
INCOMING! TAKE COVER!!!
Most of you won't get this, but US CLUELESS males understand!😎👍
"Vana, I'd like to buy ALL the vowels please!"
AIYAYAI!😳🤯
Because people hide there real life. Because this society expects you to be successful
Sometimes it's a matter of pride. Sometimes they don't want other people to worry about them.
It means they are trying to deal with it without involving anyone but sometimes it can be ego.
People who have to ask the question don't need to know the real answer.
Everybody is fine in someone's eyes so I never purely make judgement
If someone is confident about themselves more power to them.
They don't wAnt to worry other people , they don't want others to think they're vulnerable and there's a lot other reasons
Because people who admit they are not fine are sometimes shamed for not being strong enough. Mental health problems are also stigmatised.
Sometimes it is hard to tell people what is really going on. They might feel like they would be burdening you.
I am not fine but I really want to be left alone so please kindly fuck off
They don’t want to tell people their personal business or not comfortable telling their feelings.
Why do people ask "How are you?" when they don't really care?
They dont want you to pry and ask questions
Can I ask you a question?
Sure
Thanks
Maybe to not put you down or maybe they are not that good to say how they truly feel
Because they don't like to talk to the person about it
since when have people cared?
that should answer your question
You don't want to let others pity or condescend you
Because that's "I'm Fine" means
They don't want to be vulnerable.
Explaining it to other people makes it worse.
Mostly to seem as if they are fine to hide the pain they are actually in
Because it is hard to open yourself to others.
To make other leave them alone. Probably because they had a bad day or do not want to be bothers
Bothered*
