[PAX] Strangers revealing personal things?

[Scientia]

Do you have odd experiences with strangers or acquaintances revealing very personal or embarrassing details to you in casual conversation? In public?

This happens to me all the time, so much so that I don't see it as unusual anymore. Today, I was shopping and someone rammed my cart on purpose. I looked up and it was my neighbor. I had not seen him in months, so I said hello and told him about the divorce and how we are all doing okay. He told me that he has an enlarged prostate and it takes him a long time to urinate. Then he said if I need anything to just stop by and ask.

This happens to me all the time. How about you?

It always takes me a long time to pee (no not for that reason..) I'm just indecisive.. I think. maybe.. I'll post again later, when I'm sure. Personally though, I'd like to see the store CCTV to see 'who rammed who..' We only have one version of events so far.. Lol.

@Scientia Yes, females talking about feminine troubles with me. Or people talking about their illnesses in great detail. Or people sharing gossip with me. Or about really horrible things that have happened to them.

Right?! What is it about us that invites this?

@Scientia
Well I'm a good listener. I'm calm. Not much distresses me. I guess I put people at ease. Also for a man I have a lot of yin energy. I can be very yang, but yin seems to be my fall back energy.

I must have resting tell me your life story face, because people always "overshare" with me. (I quote it because I don't believe that it is over sharing to talk about most things but societal norms say other wise).


Of course I'm also one of those odd people who will share most anything if you ask me.

I ask strange women about their gynecological health.

All. The. Damn. Time.

I know when a random stranger prefaces what they're about to say with "I haven't told anyone this before, but..." that I really have to brace myself.

What do you ask normal women about?

 

[hush]

What do you ask normal women about?

Probably how they feel about trying hot coneydogs...

 

[Milktoast Bandit]

What do you ask normal women about?

How many babies we're going to have.

*remembers what 98% of her posts are like and nods, solemnly*

 

[Jet]

Please @James you're not my father, and even if you were ... I go where I want!

@Jet I am your father... join me and together we can rule this forum.. extends Darth Vader hand..

@Milktoast Bandit - I think this thread is missing a poll.

Something like.. should @Scientia have her shopping cart licence revoked ? I think we all know this is not the first time either. I wonder about her speed. She admitted speeding whilst dressed as a Goth with crimped hair (roughly 885 mph) in another thread.. I say this is at least a 2nd strike..

Sorry to throw this off course Scientia, but...
