Silence isnt golden

I see myself as a relatively friendly and warm person. Apparently, making small talk with people is frowned upon these days.

Dare to smile and acknowledge fellow man and for the most part, I'll be met with a scowl or worse, a blank look.

Does this happen when you are not wearing a mask?

I've noticed I sometimes don't hear people well if I can't see their mouth move.

@Doomflower I appreciate that. However, todays experience was due to me giving someone space to walk past me. I gave way, the offender walks causally past without an inch of gratitude or acknowledgment. Give me something pal!

@NoCode5 oh yeah that was rude of them. A nod works well.

They were probably just horribly shy or thinking of something else.

Well, we do live in the age of Covid. ALL fellow humans are suspect. You must wear a mask, stay 6 feet away, and please don't talk if you are a stranger.

{@nocodes] it is a pity your politeness is frowned on by others some people appear very edgy for some reason
