When i'm out walking the dog then yes, when i'm in a gents toilet then no.
So when you move to London, do you instantly become a shallow husk of a person, or does it take time?

Once in a blue moon, there's a question for which I have to dip my toes into the murky waters of GD in order to get an answer to (ooffftt, sticky...)
Whenever I catch someone's eye on the street, I always make a point of smiling at them. Perhaps even a "hey" or "Y'alright". Rarely am I to receive even a nod of the head in reply.
I mentioned I did this to my lady friend a few days ago and she thought it was rather odd.
So, am I just too innocent for this world to bear or am I just a freak?
No you're normal. If the world smiled more often there would be less trouble.
That's because you'll walk past one person a week out there and both of you will crave the social contact!I say hello to everyone I walk past, however that's quite normal in cornwall on the cliff paths etc..
I probably wouldn't do the same if I was back in London
Took my about 4 years before I wanted out - I love London but find it best in small doses living there got old fast (and I literally wanted to punch the next person who said "init").
Really? Took me 3 days to realise I never ever wanted to return xD
I smile at old people, who seem quite happy to smile back. Don't bother with girls though, you're likely to get a "I have a boyfriendDid you just mind rape me by assuming i wanted you to smile at me." remark these days.![]()
