How odd, as a Scandinavian (more precisely: Dane), I can relate to almost all of those. Maybe it's a Nordic thing and not just a Finnish thing? Bus stops need a lot of place here, because people don't want to stand close together, for instance.
- Symbiote 10y agoCan you relate to the final situation? I hope not... > Bus stops need a lot of place here They need a lot of space :)

- Svip 10y agoAh yes, space. But I must confess I once waited in my flat to go outside, because one of my neighbours were in the hall.
- tunap 10y agoIf that someone were intellectually, sexually or some-other-way attractive, would you have done the opposite and tried to meet up with them? There are a lot of people in the world, some more interesting than others.
- Svip 10y agoThe correct answer is: It depends. Because there have also been times when I went into the hall, fully aware that my neighbours were there. The mood required is one where one has enough energy to interact with people, and that includes ignoring them. But I'll confess - because I am unfortunately human - that attraction is likely to be a factor as well.
