Right. I try to keep the convo going best I can. I only start using "okay"s and "lmao"s when I either run out of ideas or I no longer have the energy. But that's just annoying. Or when you tell someone something deep because you just need someone to tell you it's okay or just knock some sense into you and all you get is an "okay". But these same people expect you to give them a good response. This happens all the time and it's annoying.
For me, the "?" means I don't understand what you just said and I need you to refrase it. "..." means I'm uncomfortable. IDK about anyone else, though.
Really hate it when mfs respond to my longass explanation with ":3"; Like saying "ok" was annoying enough but using an emoticon bc your lazyass doesnt wanna type is just frustrating
