    2 is correct. It means you don't understand whatever the subject is. 1 is incorrect. "Jared is in the dark about this matter." would be appropriate usage of the phrase "in the dark." Meaning, Jared is not aware of it.

    In the US, "How are you" or "how are you doing" have become common greetings between strangers when the 'how' is stressed. These questions don't necessarily expect an answer. If answered, appropriate responses are "Fine thank you" or "doing well, and yourself?" If the 'are' is stressed, it can be applied to more personal inquiry about how a persons life is going. As fdmaxey has stated, how do you do is becoming outdated.

    Actually both could be used. "Yes.I tried everything.but it didn't work out." This would be used when the speaker knows it was good to end the relationship. "It didn't work" could imply frustration and helplessness of the speaker. In this case, the speaker wanted to stay with joey, but he refused. "didn't work" refers to something specific going wrong, or something physical not functioning properly. The phrase "didn't work out" usually implies unimportance. I hope this helps.
