We all start as
strangers, so how do we choose which ones we want to turn into
friends? Or even acquaintances?
Ive been thinking of
this a lot lately, as often in my life I notice somone, who starts as
a stranger, but I want to make them a friend, or at least try. But me
in my awkward approach, this seems to be impossible. For example,
there is currently in my life a guy, a guy who I have notices since
September 2013, who seems lovely. A part of me inside is dying
because I just want to talk to him, see if he actually IS nice.
But how? How does this stranger-friendship concept happen.
Now I know there is a 100% chance he doesnt want anything to do with me, but how would he know if he didnt even try either? Or maybe hes sat thinking the exact same as me... wondering how.
Now ive met a complete stranger before, talked to them online for a few months, then met and had a lovely day together. So this kept me thinking how is this guy different? Well maybe because I see him around a lot, we go to the same educational building, and the feeling of rejection or the other person being horrible could lead to things becoming awkward and unpleseant.
But I cant help that whenever I see said strangers face, I smile and get incredibly nervous, and when I dont see his face, I wish I could.
I wish this stranger to friend idea was so much easier, that being said im the one sat here blogging about it and not actually thinking of a fool proof plan to pull an Augustus Waters and bump into him somehow.
