Decoding the texts everyone gets
A one-word "hey" with nothing after it is a door left slightly open — they want contact but won't do the work of starting a real conversation.
Sometimes shy interest, sometimes boredom, sometimes "I want attention, not commitment." The tell is what happens when you reply: do they build on it, or make you carry the whole thing?
Decode YOUR exact message → it depends on contextThese are the patterns — but the same word means different things from different people. Sided reads your actual conversation and tells you what THIS person means, and what to say back.
