- ritual.
A formality that does not carry a deep meaning, a form adopted by custom. The military salute at the meeting, in the Middle Ages it was necessary to make 16 ritual jumps, and then the same formality — you have to say “How are you?”. The interlocutor will also formally answer this: “Normal”.
- entertainment,
«Hey! How are you?» — maybe the beginning of entertainment, with the subtext: «Tell me what you know is interesting.» Then a more or less entertaining chatter begins, in which people habitually while away the time.
- psychological game, negative manipulation.
“Well, how are you?”, uttered with the appropriate intonation, means “Well, I got you,” when the questioner is already sure in advance that something is “not right” here and is going to “embed” about this.
- business conversation.
I need information, they give it to me. A communication partner here is only a source of information, and not a person with his own destiny, breath and search.
- proximity,
Live contact of people who love (at least feel) each other. «How are you?» here means: «I’m so glad to see you! Are you all right in your soul? ”, And the response“ Good ”can be deciphered:“ I am also very glad to see you, and now it’s just wonderful to be with you … ”These two met.
