...I didn't feel obligated.

I felt thankful and thought it would be nice to let you know that.

Edit: also you seemed to show some empathy and took the time to comment that illness is also plaguing your area, so it seemed like you were an emphatic person to some degree. Thought you might be receptive and appreciate knowing.

Was a little thing, just a few words, and ,selfishly, if a few words hello you have a better day, even for just a literal moment, that makes me feel good so it really isn't a bother to state my honest feelings.

Not a big deal but im happy to have an honest interaction even if it is to someone I'll likely never see or come across again.

Cheers

Hey man, no hard feelings to you. It was a nice gesture. Though I did indeed not think about the illness part. Much love sent your way. I see nothing you did wrong in particular.

Oh no hard feelings here! Sorry if it came off that way.

Then your humbleness and niceness was what had confused me. You wonder where this kindness comes from, next to a state of moron and bullies.
