@Muuluzi actually i read a book and it said do not use that sentence bc it sounds cold! Instead of that, “how have you been?” Or “long time no see”
For me, those are the same.

@Muuluzi i have one more question. In the book i read,
“Please give me~” sounds “i do not want to spend my money but i just want you to give it to me for free”..?
So if i use that, do i look like a stingy person?
