"How are you," is one of those loaded questions I never know how to answer.

Is it part of a greeting? Do you genuinely want to know? Do I lie and keep the peace, or do I open up and bring you down?

Anyway, I'm doing fine, how are you?

Maybe they're shy and don't complete the sentence. They wanna know "How are you so handsome?", but don't dare to ask such personal questions.

That sounds like an accusation against either your intelligence, or your standing in life.
