discussion Do you get annoyed when random people smile or say "hi" to you when you're in public?

[Mr. Peanutbutter]

It's actually the other way around. It's more annoying when people ignore you and act arrogant for no reason

[Quiqui4eva]

Welp, you would hate me then. It's become a subconscious thing even though I'm a complete introvert

[Pluto6]

Imagine being bothered by people being nice to you and acknowledging your existence 

[Gladiator]

Of course not, but in public I almost always have headphones in so I would not notice regardless.

[Gaia]

No because I'm not a *****  

[Dolce Vita]

[JoeAg]

no I love it! I also love it when people tell me I have a friendly face or a nice smile or pretty hair… all wins in MY book, honeyturkey

[MP3]

If someone smiles at me or says hello to me in the street, it doesn't bother me and I respond, but what really annoys me is when I'm hiking or walking in nature and everyone I pass says hello, it's annoying, I'm out there to take some time for myself, not to have a hello marathon

Get those extra steps in sis.

Omg, exactly.   Like all I wanna do is look at the pretty scenery and listen to E•MO•TION, but when people keep saying "hi" to me, I feel like I have to pause Carly and stop looking at the trees every two seconds in order to not seem like a horrible person, and it quickly starts to piss me off.  I wish they made trails specifically for people like us.

[Post Malone]

I was more annoyed trying to picture this specific random scenario

[Comedor]

Yes because I usually have my AirPods on, and I don't want random people interrupting my **** Pop Miami listening experience. 

[KatyPrismSpirit]

bitter aging twink indeed…

Girl, congrats. That's autism. Welcome to the club.

[l3disko]

No, I find it more annoying when coworkers say good morning and ask"how are you?" every single morning, it feels like groundhog day. Like nothing changed from literally any other day, it feels like I just saw you, i'm still forced to be here even though I don't want to be, **** off.

[a_d_22]

No cause I'm not an east coast douche bag.

[NoOneDiesFromLove]

They don't annoy me but I usually have my AirPods on whenever I'm out so I don't get that very often  can you tell I have social anxiety?

They actually don't even do this to me.

 

[Technicolor]

No. It's harmless and it brighten up my day 

[єѕℓαм]

Depends on my mood sometimes i just smile back and other times I put on my headphones & i don't make eye contact with anyone at all so it really comes down to my mood that day 

[bad guy]

Ohhh so you're one of those people I say "Hey" to or smile at that ignore me and look at me like I'm the weird one. I've always envisioned confronting y'all for once so you can be aware of the manners you lack and how you ruin the vibes so thank you for posting this so I can freely tell you that you suck. Have a great day 

 

[dumbsparce]

Imagine being this miserable 

[AvadaKedavra]

You wouldnt survive here in some latino countries cause we are always like. Good morning. Good afternoon lol and we smile too
Sometimes also people have small talk with you in buses or random places
Is a cultural thing  lol
My brother recently moved to the USA and he's already feeling depressed with the coldness there lol


I think you would be perfect for germany. If im not wrong theyre all very "Mind your business" and thats it

Wait. I know I'm neurodivergent but maybe I'm autistic and not adhd like I thought. 

[AshleyLovescats887]

Yes, but I usually get concerned or scared.

Like.. you are talking to ME??? wait...WHAT???? that's weird. Don't do that. I don't know you. Do you????? How do you know me??????? Maybe you're just catcalling?? Or asking for money?? Like leave me alone.
