In what circumstances do you say hello to a stranger?
Only if he/she says it first.
🥀 🐒 top of the mornin governa (being open to conversation takes practice) & at the end of the day saying goodbye is truly the toughest of things. I still think of this 1 person I met (lol he asked my cousin about me after) 😭 life is a cruel mistress.
When we stumble across each other? Or when they lose something and I pick it up for them to hand it over? many other similar occasions?
Either out of sheer politeness, as in entering a waiting room at the doctor’s office or beginning an interaction with the cashier. Or when I have very good reason to demand someone’s attention, if they lost something or don’t realise they are about to do something stupid.
The thought of going to a stranger, say hello and start a conversation gives me anxiety. Although I learned that this is completely customary behaviour in other regions in Europe.
