- Skip the one-word answer. Add a detail, a joke or a feeling.
- End with a question that is not "and you?", like "what is the best part of your day so far".
- Match the tone. A late-night "how are you" from a crush is not the same as one from a coworker.
- If you are interested, say it a little: "better now that you texted" works.
