I just passed the IT guy and I go "hey how are you?" and he goes "good, how are you?" and I go...

"good thanks, how are you"

like I forgot that I asked first!

    To avoid this faux pas in the future always come up with a creative response for the day.

    "How Are You"

    Not only will you remember to not ask them again, there's a wonderful chance they will never ask you again if you're ok.

    My favorite is like when I'm buying a ticket to a movie or show or something and the guy behind the ticket booth says, "Enjoy the show!" and I reply, "Yeah, you too!"

    Yeah, I have done that.

    And also the "enjoy your show" "you too!" bit...

    The other day, some guys came to repair the floor in our bathroom. I met them during the summer, when they came to do the estimate but I hadn't seen them since. As they walked in, one said "just to remind you, I'm Walt and this is Joe" and I said "oh, it's nice to meet you!....er...I mean, to see you again." lol :) Oops. :o

    Man I do that to people alot. Dont worry though, it just means you dont care enough :p . All kidding aside, not caring has clearly become an epidemic. I say we all care more :D .

    How about when you're in the dressing room at the mall and one of the sales girls knocks and says if she could assist with anything. Without fail I open the door with my pants around my ankles and say "well since you offered". Talk about awkward! Then trying to explain to the gf why I'm no longer allowed in Macy's, Penney's, or Modern Motherhood (don't ask).

    God, that made me laugh!

    Have you ever done this? Met someone you know unexpectedly while shopping, you walk and chat for a bit, say bye and then both walk into the same shop? I hate that.

    I do that too....

    The other day I went to pickup some food at a pizza place and the girl said "enjoy your meal" and I responded with, "thanks, you too." But she didn't have a meal.

    Also when I meet people I don't listen to what they say so I never get anyones name and then I feel awkward later.

    Leaving work to go on vacation:

    Co-worker: Have a good vacation!

    Me: Thank you. You too!

    Co-worker: I'm not going on vacation?

    This reminded me of how when I had a real estate partner out on Long Island who shared the same first name as my gf. Couple of times over the years I would leave her a voice message ended with I Love You. It was never brought up by either one of us.

    I always do it to the airport security people.

    Security Guy: "Have a good flight"

    Me: "You Too"

    I bet they hear that one all the time, yet are never flying anywhere.
