Hello everyone, newbie here....it will be a week tomorrow that I joined, wow! I have noticed something interesting and wanted to get input.

First let me say that I am (was?) a huge user of Facebook. I pretty much put my life on that thing, yes I might be one of those TMI people.
Anyway in Facebook you get lots of "likes" which I am interpreting to be upvotes here on steemit (this could be my first mistake), and and usually less comments. However, most everyone that comments has "liked" over on Facebook, but not everyone that "liked" will comment.
On steemit I have noticed that my post will get a fair amount of people commenting BUT no upvotes. It makes me wonder why? If the post spoke to you enough for you to comment on in, then why not also upvote? I read someplace that the upvotes do not come out of our own "bank" (again this could be wrong info), so why do you think there is a hesitation
to upvote along with commenting?
I would love to hear what you all think of this, and please set me straight if I am missing part of the puzzle that is steemit.
my best to you all!!
