We've been taught to never talk to strangers. How do you make friends with people if we avoid them? How did you meet your friend or husband? Wasnt he or she a stranger before you became friends? Do you talk to strangers? Was your friend or partner a totally stranger before you guys became best friend or partners?Or did you meet your best friend or partner through another friend?

I am making a point this year, to talk to people I meet up with at the mall, on line at Wal-Mart, in the doctors room. By doing this I have met so many interesting people. Like on a bus trip I was waiting for my husband at a Mall we stopped at. There was the 83 year old man sitting next to me waiting for his wife. We started to talk, and he told me he was from Kentucky. He worked for Col. Sanders (the Kentucky Fried Chicken guy) when he wa a teenager. He told me so many wonderful stories about the KFC guy! Try it, it makes your life so much more interesting

When I was a child, that phrase "dont talk to strangers" applies. But when I grow older, and have to develop my social skills, that fades away. Now im talking to strangers that eventually in the long run became my friends. Just have a line acroos strangers and you coz you have to have a reservation also. Well, my bf now is my neighbor.

This entire "don't talk to strangers," concept has gone way too far. As a matter of fact it has gotten out of hand. No one trusts anyone anymore.. Any you are right, if you never mix with strangers, you will never get to meet anyone. Everyone is a stranger of sorts before your first meeting.
