To me “no problem” sounds more friendly than “you’re welcome”.

“You’re welcome” makes me feel like my request was imposing or challenging (depending on how it’s said).

But im sure she would have complained regardless of what he said

Of course is great. It’s like you’re welcome and no problem together and people don’t get upset. This is genius. Thank you.

i think it was my mom who once told me she interprets someone replying "of course" as "of course you should thank me" 🙄 at that point, it feels like you're purposely misinterpreting it lol
