I hate it when strangers try chatting me up in line at the store 😒

It’s like, do I look like I’m in the mood to chit-chat? And then I’m the rude one for not interacting with them. Why do I have to be put on the spot like that and then be painted as the bad guy? I’m there to pay for my shit and go on about my day! I’m glad you’re so extroverted and comfortable shooting the shit with just anyone, but some of us have social anxiety or simply aren’t in the mood to chat. Gawd, I hate people…

THIS!!

This is my single biggest pet peev in life. I'm NOT a rude person, but I also don't like chatting about nothing with random strangers.

Just because they're uncomfortable with their own company doesn't mean I am. I like my time with myself and unless there's something of significance that needs to be communicated, I'd prefer they leave me the hell alone. 🙄

@sarabee1995 You can see them too. Trying to make eye contact and desperately thinking of something to say

I like it when people talk to me in the store.
Im not an extrovert, but silly pointless conversations are why I come here. Doing them in real face to face life is lovely. Especially with strangers! I can go to my car and never see them again. Its nice.
