So these are some of the social interactions I had today. Do you feel I could have asked Instagram from one?

So today I didn't have much of international interactions but I did have some good interactions with Indian women. Like in Starbucks of Church Street of our city Bangalore in India, I initiated conversation with 2 women who also happened to be MBA students. They are doing internship now. I also said them I just completed my MBA recently so that made it even easier for having a conversation. They are mostly in their early 20s and I am 25 and we talked about our MBA specializations like they took HR while I took Business Analytics and I shared how harder it is in Business Analytics to get entry-level jobs. They also asked about me and I shared. It was one of my very 2 way interaction honestly. They are mostly from Bangalore itself whereas I am from West Bengal but living in the city for many years. Also I not only talked with one of them but I engaged with both the women. Both were so cute tho. Whats funny is even they laughed and struggled to pronounce my name even though they are Indians so yeah foreigners fully struggle too. I said them it's just a Bengali name and rare. I was also fully enthusiastic and bubbly talking to them. I was almost trying to recreate that campus Cafeteria vibe from my MBA with them in Starbucks. But yeah it ended with a handshake and all. This is one interaction where I wished i could ask their Instagram.

I then also talked with this solo woman in food court area of Church Street itself eating a bowl of noodles. She is a working professional somewhere in her 20s(probably about 23-26) but yeah she looked beautiful and was wearing a head scarf. She also asked me whether I am new in Bangalore because I said I am just trying to meet new people as I am just done with MBA but I said I am from West Bengal but living in Bangalore for years and she is from Bangalore too. So yeah it was all general talks and nothing much. She was moderately engaging but yeah idk why I said her sorry like 3 times during the interaction even though she reassured everything was fine. But yeah a decent interaction. Then in Blossom Bookhouse of Church Street, I initiated interaction with 2 women who are Indians too who said they just completed college and they studied B.Com so yeah they are about 21 and as I am also just completed MBA and we are in job search phase I tried to talk more and trying to be relatable. They were smiling and talking a bit. I even said "As you both graduated I guess you will know how it is after college is done, so yeah I am just trying to talk to new people as MBA is freshly over for me" and they agreed but unfortunately there was a pause in between. They weren't really asking questions much and I didn't know what else to ask without it looking forced so had to end it. They were so cute but the interaction wasnt very two-way interaction here.

I only had these 2 international interactions. So in UB City mall, while getting down the escalator, i initiated conversation with this woman from Japan who is a tourist. As we were on escalator, it was a short interaction but damn she was really bubbly and expressive and quite loud. She was literally the bubbliest Japanese woman i ever talked to(yeah the previous Japanese women i talked to happened to be more reserved or soft spoken) but she was engaging so full, smiling, talking louder and clearer and i enjoyed the vibe. She was cute but her confident nature made her seem even more attractive. Other than that, on Lavelle Road, i initiated conversation with this expat woman from Holland(Netherlands). She was friendly and engaging and the conversation was going pretty decent honestly. She was also tall at least the same height as me(I am 176-177 cm maybe even 178 cm) and skinny and beautiful and about late 20s to early 30s(about 28-32 mostly I guess) But yeah when I asked her whether she is working in Bangalore or just travelling, she said "Actually my husband works here". So yeah she mentioned her husband. Yeah I felt a moment of "Oh nooo" internally but yeah I replied "Oh nice" and as she was going somewhere, I eventually said "Okay then it was nice meeting you, have a great day" and she said "You too" and we went out own ways.

Why do you start interacting with every stranger around you?

@Fertilization Because I am done with my MBA and still job searching so I am unable to organically meet women or people in general and more in home these days. It's harder to meet people now like I could in University so just putting myself out there. Also dating apps arent working for me as I get no matches on them. Plus I was shy near girls for years due to social anxiety and low self-esteem after facing severe bullying in school days so I missed out quite a lot and I am basically a late bloomer so I am trying to make up for my lost years at 25 now and also trying to gain social skills by talking with women as that's what I missed out on as a teen and some of my early 20s and only overcome it at 23. I don't have many friends as I was an introvert and also bullied in school and had trust issues. Also what's wrong in it if I am being respectful and not being pushy or anything?
