Is it weird that I don’t like when strangers talk to me?

[Flower7]

(Random people trying to start conversations with me in public.)

Yes, this is weird.

No, this isn’t weird.

[The_Shadow_Dweller]

I cannot say first myself as I maybe one of those random people.

I do so to increase my speaking skills and learn from the experience.

Ofcourse people like you can bring a hiccup in the process, but it is because of you that I get the different kind of experience. And I consider it while initiating any conversation with the next person.

But the funny thing is, I myself do not prefer if strangers talk to me, only if they are not as per my preference regarding the attire. I just want the next person to be presentable in themselves. That's it.

[VV3ZZY]

Depends on the person for me. I can't stand when people keep bothering me or are "energy vampires" you gotta be careful!

[Flower7]

True, not everyone has good intentions!

[ChrisMaster69]

Not at all, it’s fairly common. Pretty much everyone living in London and the South of England freaks out if someone they don’t know speaks to them.

Last week, I had a number of Americans visiting and one guy got trapped at bar by two girls. They had came over to talk to him and he did not know what to do with two girls chatting to him n flirting lol. Was like two cats playing with a mouse.

Weird it might be to some & weird it might not be to others. As for me when I’m out & about sometimes I just like doing my own thing & don’t want to be bothered & other times people talk up a storm to me & I’m cool with it. Nowadays I’m finding a lot of people that don’t want to be bothered & their more in tune with their cellphone & music than they are with the rest of the world. Nowadays it seems like more people socialize online & it’s like they forgot how to socialize offline.

The biggest reason I never talk to strangers is I don't want to bother them, maybe they don't want to talk.

It's a good thing that you asked this, now I don't have to blame myself for not talking to strangers enough.

[NathanDavis]

some people are not really into that... and I think that's common and normal, it is not weird...

I do it all the time, well... strangers tend to chat with me all the time, so I am used to it

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

No Flower you got to watch out for the strangers that make conversation it can be bad?

[Flower7]

True, they usually end up saying something negative!

[KrakenAttackin]

I am kind of the same way. Since lockdown I have become more reclusive.

[Flower7]

Yes, I do feel like being isolated for so long made it worse.

[ArrowheadSW]

Not weird. Some people just are not comfortable with it.

[GingerGuy]

Neither do I. No interest in random conversations with strangers.

[Reaper1985]

I tend to be anti-social around people I don't know that well yet myself.

[EarthRealm]

Your parents have Taught you about Stranger Danger.

[athlete_for_lyf]

Its very common. We all tend to feel awkward and weird to start convos.

[RuthlessAggression]

A little but it's ok. I'm SORT of the same way, but not exactly

[The_Naughty_Guy]

It’s not. I too don’t like when some stranger would come and talk to me unless she’s hot..

[Slim57]

If it is I don't either or my girlfriend, so it's whatever

[Guardian45]

No, I'm kinda private, introverted person, too. But it is important NOT to cut yourself off entirely from new people and things!

[altdbob]

Its not weird if your a stuck up bitch. How do you meet new people if you don't give someone a chance to talk to you in a public place?

[Flower7]

I’m not interested in meeting new people.

[JonesT10Apr]

wish to introduce in real from beginning and then casual chat good to me

[UniquelyBasic]

I dont like it either

[exitseven]

I don;t like strangers talking to me either

[sirderpsalot123]

I'm the same way, lol.
