The most told lie in the English language. Used when someone is, in
fact, not fine, but drowning in their sadness. They say ‘I’
m fine’ because they
don’t want to worry anyone with their problems, and it’s easier than explaining what’s wrong.
person 1 : how are you, you look upset?
person 2 : oh, I’
m fine
thanks, just tired
person 2 is not fine.
I’
m tired - tired of living, tired of fighting, tired of waking up everyday to fight a constant battle going on inside their head.
