In every aspect of life, we tend to meet people of whom we can get easily talk with and unfortunately get hook up. We unfold a feeling of contenment and fun at the same time by simply hanging and talking with them in a just a small amount of time. Then we parted ways with them occasionally and we tend to miss that kind of feeling.
I have that moment too.
Whenever I rush to the ER because of some complication, I was left in the corner in oxygen, watching people walking pass by me, worried and sick. And there is that one person who’s curiosity is in motion, will ask you what happen to you. Before answering them, my thoughts will ask me, should I talk to them or not? Then a minute later, I was them, sharing the same experiences inside the ER.

I think the person asking what happened to you is just genuinely being nice.

In this day and age, no. I'm very aloof when walking in the street. I tend to not trust strangers. With all the warnings regarding con artists, it's more as survival rather than manners.

I often talk to strangers. A stranger can be a friend that I didn't know.

Sometimes I talk to strangers. I have had some nice conversations with some of the people I met when I was travelling. It depends who the other person is. Sometimes strangers act friendly, but they actually want to sell something or they have other intentions, so it depends on my impression of the other person.

@JustBhem That is true. Sometimes it is nice to talk to strangers for a while for instance while are travelling. When we were travelling in Europe, we met many tourists from other countries. One of them was a real estate agent and she gave us some useful advice (we were trying to sell our house at that time)

That is the good thing about talking to a stranger too, it will give us good information.

I also choose people I talk to. I care about their facial expression too much. One time, I was waiting for the boyfriend to carry me, when an adult lady ask me and her facial expression was something like I have some kind of disease, what I did. I did not talk to her and move out.

I have no problem talking to anyone. Of course, if it does not go beyond the boundary of a cultural talk

Sometimes we have that moment too that we don’t like talking at all.

@JustBhem I know a lot of people who do not like it, who are silent, I'm not like that, maybe it's good and maybe not

Depends on the person and the situation. Many times in person unless I feel they are someone I can easily relate with and talk with I tend to keep quiet. Because if it is someone I will see a lot besides then many times I want to feel them out before saying much.

I am talking to strangers all the time . . . I seem open but I am always cautious about people's intentions (you never know, this is a crazy world). In most cases it is just chit chatting for the moment - and I am cool with that.

I have no boundaries to interact with strangers. I love networking with people and I always mind my limits of not asking very personal questions to them. So, I also believe they wouldn't ask me, either!

I talk to strangers like asking them if I feel like I'm lost in a place haha I mean how/where will be the direction if I'll go to this and that place and also as long as a one stranger needs help or what I'll not hesitate to help him/her, I\'m not snob.

i believe that we all came into the earth as strangers and it is our choice on whether we want to interact and talk with one another to form a friendship and bond. I believe that if we never talked to each other what a boring world this would be.
