If only it was socially unacceptable to start conversations with random strangers

That unless you know someone, it's proper to simply keep to yourself and talking to strangers is considered awkward and suspicious. That would make going out in public a hell of a lot easier for introverts like me.

I try not to talk to strangers.... but random people just come up to me and start talking! My family makes fun of me for it. I think I come across as safe and approachable or something. I can't go anywhere without some person striking up a conversation with me. LOL. I guess I could have worse problems.

@Maritocorneo That would make me insane. I don't mind it too much in places like the bar, but when I'm someplace where I'm just there to do my business and get out, it gives me anxiety.
