If you smiled at me in real life, and then I gave you a blank look but kept walking..
(That is healthy for you? Especially if it happens often? Wouldn’t you just stop being nice?)
A smile or 🤙 is just what it is. Wanting a stranger to interact with verbal or written dialog every time a stranger nods or whatever is a reach.

Interesting. I thought you were taking that in a different direction.
I feel like I put my heart and mind into thoughtful note/post and then get some token “like” and nothing else. To me that’s like getting a blank face to my warm and genuine smile.
On the internet you can get tens of thousands of “smiles and nods” whereas in real life I’m only going to see a few dozen faces a day. I need some value-for-value screening mechanism or I’ll be drained
