I haven't been alive long enough to see trends?
I have.
And I said what I did about you based on your own post. I only know about you what you tell me.
And the weird kids are the ones that flip. They may do nothing. They may hurt themselves, or in the worst case, others.
The point is that its the lack of human connection that causes people to flip. Its the one thing they all share. We created a society that revels in the convenience that makes this type of person not just possible, but commonplace.
This one of the reasons I love going back to Mexico. The town I visit, everyone says hi to one another when passing by.
Even in Africa there are places where it is pretty much looked down upon to not take notice of another person. Someone walking towards you? Smile and say hi. What do the majority of people do here? And if your open enough to reach out to someone, what is the most likely expression they will have of you here in US?
I agree Charlie, with all you have said. I know im not as opened as you want the US to be, but Ive told myself that my kids will not as shy as me. Ill try to put them on the right track to be very outgoing with their activities and other people.
We might not be able to change our generation, but the one our generation will spawn. They might have a chance to make a change. That's why my family and I moved to the American South East, specifically Alabama. Everyone here is nice, and in the case of your whole hand shaking, smiling scenario... Do that, you may get stuck in a conversation haha. You're only thinking about where you live perhaps. in the parts of Africa I've been to, I've been sneered at, and in Germany, mostly simply ignored
