People that talk about themselves to strangers

I find these people curious. The only communication between myself and this lass at work have been a few smiles. Today we worked along side each other and within minutes I knew the following:
a) She broke up with her boyfriend because he is a pot smoking X-box addict
b) She gets drunk at least 3 nights a week, usually during happy hour, and fucks a lot of guys
c) She has a massive crush on her coworker but is worried that he is only friends with her because he want's a "Dirty Root"
d) She is sick of being the "Dirty Root" on the side.

Saying dirty root is the Australian equivalent of saying filthy fuck.

I like these sorts of people. Most of us care too much about being cool.

Do you know anyone like this?

 

yea...i know a few of them haha

 

I want da digits

 

my friends call me a walking confessional because i'll start a job, and random ppl ive never met yet will tell me sooo much about themselves, that i really didnt need to know. i guess some ppl just give out that vibe.

 

The hey-every-town-crazy-come-talk-to-me-vibe... yea, I give that off too

 

If I'm forced to stand beside a person longer than two minutes they will begin telling me about their problems and then if I'm stuck for a long time I will know their life story.

 

You're working together...so you're not really strangers. I tend to tell my co-workers a little bit about myself when we first meet, because I'm going to be spending a lot of time with them. But I'm smart enough to be able to key in on who I can tell certain things. I usually talk to whoever's in the kitchen with me regularly in depth, so my boss knows a lot about me now, but I don't see that as a bad thing necessarily.

 

Me too. On the forum I am probably different, but in real life I take people for who they are and I keep my judgments to myself. Most people I know are not like this, they need to have an opinion on everything and they need to keep anyone who is different at a distance. I think its just a matter of being meek and kind.

I love hearing about peoples' lives, its entertaining. I don't really know a single person that listens to me though, and my life sucks. This gets tiring.

 

ive had ppl come up to me and tell me all about their sex life, their drug use, drug dealing, when they had to go to prostitution.oh god, when i worked for dish network, i had to hear about this womans whore house, and the things they did, and all i was trying to do is smoke a cig on my break. sheesh!

 

You should go drinking with her one night

 

I find that I meet these types of people mainly at the workplace.

As for why, I don't know. There must be some parallel that I'm missing.

 

Shes gorgeous, I would root her any day.

 

You'd be surprised how comfortable a smile can make someone else feel towards you. Especially a few of them, and right proper eye contact.

 

I was at a bakery the other day and a woman with a walker started talking to me. She told me her walker's name was rabbit and that it liked to give kisses. After rambling about her walker for awhile she moved on to the next person. I 'm pretty sure she went through the entire bakery talking to everyone about her walker.

 

good point! i always smile and make eye contact to ppl. i need to cut out the friendly approachable vibe!

 

I really enjoy and appreciate when strangers open up to me. I always find it to be special and something I should pay attention to. Little signs.

 

No stranger ever tells me anything except the crazies

Luckily I like the crazies

 

I mostly smile at her because she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, but now that I know she probably has several VD's and probably has never read a book I have my reservations. Still I think she'll make a great friend.

 

No strangers talk to me at all ever

Ohhh, I had a girl run up to me yelling for me to stop a week or so ago and she asked where I got my t-shirt from, but other than I cant remember the last time a random has spoken to me

 

yeah, it's usually the crazies that open up to me too. which is cool, because i'm crazy too,
but sometimes it's the stalkerish old guys that are sick of their wives kind of crazy, which is not very cool.
