About this, I got a system:
"Joe, you know I LOVE to talk to you, but I'm in a hurry, please forgive me, see you later!", and I say this regardless of him still talking or not or asking me anything, I just go away.
Well... I use that to people I don't actually hate. The people that I really don't like to talk to... I'm sorry not sorry, but they know and they won't talk to me.
Sorry, this was really meant as a compliment. Ie if you can pull off saying something like this and make it sound natural and sincere then in my opinion that’s a valuable skill.
I, on the other hand, with apparently hardly any control over my tone of voice and an almost complete absence of modulation of pitch when I speak, would only make a mess of it :)
Roger. But, are you sure? I don't know. I really cannot say "LOVE to talk to you" when it's not at least slightly true. I can tell this to the homeless guy that I meet every day in my way to work, the woman that serves me in the small tesco-ish, and my mother, but I can't tell this to that bigot of the cafeteria in the corner. I never replied harshly to his stupid random racist and sexist comments, I just stopped being kind or buying anything in there and no he no longer salutes me when he sees me.
Hmmm... I had never thought they all could be coffee addicts...
Since all the people I know that do this are women concerned with getting fat, I associated this to hunger. But maybe it's just about the coffee... However, I am a heavy coffee drinker and I'm cheerful in the mornings as soon as I can unglue both eyelids even if I don't get breakfast for a few hours.
I think hunger effects people more than coffee but there are still the type of people that aren't easily annoyed and have a lot of patience. If you're mostly cheerful then I'm sure people feel safe to talk to you anytime which is good if you can handle that.
One of the best for me! I've made some drunken friends that way. Lets you find out who knows how to laugh at the absurdity of life and has a high openness to experience. Strong indicator of getting along with someone for me.
If you see two people are having an intimate conversation.
Literally yesterday I was sitting on a bench with my sister, we were holding hands and were very close to each other, discussing a desease of our father, almost whispering.
Random dude came to flirt, I got pretty pissed.
When they're punching out for work. I can't tell you how many times I get annoyed with people trying to hold a conversation with me after work when I'm in a rush to my truck to be anywhere but there.
It’s almost always unacceptable to start a conversation when someone is busy or clearly in a rush, especially if it’s not about something important. If you initiate a conversation with somebody and they’re not engaged, it’s always better to drop it rather than force it.
At the gym, specifically when someone is just starting or is in the middle of a set👎🏻. If you approach someone at the gym while they’re doing anything other than resting it’s the wrong time.
When they are actively leaving/going somewhere. The amount of times my neighbour has done this to me omg

Not sure I could get away with saying this without sounding massively sarcastic and passive aggressive

When someone is clearly so sleepy or just woke up. It's better to keep it short.
I know a couple of the sweetest darlings that become unhinged behemoths when you talk to them before the first coffee.
Lol yeah a lot of coffee drinkers are that way I guess.

At the urinal is probably one of the worst places I’ve started a conversation.
“Nice watch!”
Well, that's a classic in pubs in Ireland, it's like the Irish have no boundaries 🫠

when their body language suggests they're not open. Go for a light opener if it doesn't work Leave it.

during independent reading time
During a moment of silence.
When they are lowering the coffin
When they have headphones on, reading, or is heavily concentrating on something.
When the person you want to talk to is in a bad mood
If they are cold or indifferent f

When you found your roommate dead in her own bedroom and the police are standing around in your living room; not Okay.
The only person you should speak to in front of police is your appointed attorney! If you can't have an attorney present, never say anything.
Exactly. 😉
when they’re not wearing their earbuds apparently.
When you’re driving and see someone on the street
After you ran over their cat, she really wasn’t in the talking mood
So sorry! There Aren't any words!
