Is it better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all?
Just kidding.
Really, what I want to know is: how to do you feel when strangers try to make conversations with you? I am talking about just small talk in a store or in line at the post office. Not as in hitting on someone. When you know the conversation will go nowhere and it is pointless. Do you indulge them? Or do you answer politely and not engage? Or do you make a new best friend? I am curious because this happens a lot and I have no time for small talk bullcrap, I hate it. And I feel like an asshole when I end the convo.
I don’t mind. Who gives a shit? If we don’t have time for other people then what’s the point of living?
i hate it - drives me nuts - but people here in the midwest do it all the time. i respond back because i hate to be rude…but i try to politely end things quickly so i can get the hell out of there.
