Do you ever go up to strangers on the street and talk to them?

Asked by saraaaaaa (2317points) July 31st, 2010

So lets ignore for a moment that talking to the strangers on the street is supposed to be dangerous.

Let me set the scene…you’re on your lunch break, enjoying a casual cup of coffee and across the room you catch sight of this person who glances back and gives you a smile…Okay so that may be the disneyfied version of seeing some random person but would you go and say hello? Or would you just go about your day? If you are or aren’t then what are your motives?

My point is that in this era of hyper-communication, tweeting, facebooking, email, text, im…etcetera, etcetera. Is there anyone out there any more that would simply go and say hello to a stranger in the street? A random hello, or act of kindness can be the kind of thing to make a person’s day, to catch someone’s eyes when they seem to be having a bad time and just smile at them! To communicate with people though chance.

Hello, btw :)
