It seems like a small thing, but the one person I’d think would ask me the most never really does
My wife and I try to ask each other this question every day, along with “what was your favorite part of the day.” It doesn’t always happen. But we make an honest effort.
Daily… There is a bot in this community that asks me every day!

How often do you ask them?
I like to ask every day, but I usually just get one word answers and then sometimes they’ll ask how my day was. One comment here has a totally different perspective on that question, though, and it’s got me thinking maybe they just don’t like it.
Never. But I also don’t do anything to have much to say even if someone did.
Almost daily actually…
Not very often. My bestie and my partner ask every now and then, I ask daily.
All of my coworkers are extremely cordial so all the time. I always let them know it’s just “going” or “I’m here” with a laughing sigh.
pretty much this. i get asked all the time and i give the same answer. still nice to be asked how im doing but my response changes only once in a while.
I understand completely where you’re coming from. Even if I’m having a bad day it’s usually for personal reasons and I don’t like to talk about my personal stuff at work.
I like to use this joke to describe my feelings about it with the exception that I love my wife dearly: https://youtu.be/k23DfUYBjZI?si=-doPJ8QLVDb6F5Ha
Way too often.
It’s in the past, I don’t need to have feelings about it anymore. Please don’t ask me to form an opinion about a day I’ll never think of again.
Interesting perspective and definitely something for me to consider!
Just today I jokingly complained to my husband that he always asks our cats how their day was, but he never asks me how my day went. He said “well I know your day was shit, so why bother.” Checkmate.
Brutal.
My wife and I ask each other every day we work.
About once a month. If I’m lucky.
Not as often as one might like.
Same: rarely from the people who really matter to me. It’s almost always the cashier at the grocery store or the bike store. Nice people, but I don’t know if they really care what the answer is, they’re doing they’re best to be nice.
Only when I talk to my mom, but I usually just say “fine”, because I don’t want her to worry or try and fix things, as it usually adds to my stress.
I don’t check every day, but I think the bot here never forgets to ask. I don’t want to share with it though. Y’know, Skynet became self aware in 1997.
