“hey, you ok?” .. “yeah, i’m fine” .. “what’s wrong?”

why can’t you ever just be fine? why do people assume you’re not saying how you’re actually feeling when they hear the word ‘fine’?

i get that a lot of people use the word ‘fine’ as a cover up or a plea for help for some deep set emotional struggle.

but what if you are just fine? you’re not going to say you’re good or great because that may be an over exaggeration and there is nothing wrong for you to be sad or angry.

if i say i’m fine 9 times out of 10 i’m not misleading you. i’m genuinely fine.
