When was the last time you eavedropped? What was about?

I don't normally remember it anyway, I just like hearing a buzz of chatter, maybe it's the environment it brings

eavesdropped* I don't know, it was a few years ago in SecondLife. I was so lonely I was just looking around for people talking to listen to. There was a crowd of people in this one world and I stood nearby. At one point I moved to hear or see someone better, I didn't even move any closer to them, just shifted a little, but I had a bad feeling he was going to notice me and not like it, then he asked why this guy is hanging around them, so I left.

I don’t like eavesdropping on people I love. As for strangers, their convos don’t interest me.

I heard a workmate on his phone tell things to his mother that wasn't meant for my ears.

I don’t really know. I do it all the time, automatically. Like Andy said, I would turn it off if I could. I hate it when people talk on their phones while shopping. I want peace and quiet. I really don’t want to hear their drama. 😠

I suppose I do when on the train or doing stuff in my back year - its not deliberate but people talk loud. I've heard break ups, people begging parents for money and people setting up fights... people be crazy, if I could block it out I would.
