I'm usually friendly to strangers but I'd be immediately suspicious of someone asking me either of these questions out of the blue - and I'm a middle class, middle aged male.
- throwayEngineer 7y agoThat's fine. Not every conversation turns into friendship. Most of mine I am trying to find similarities or learn new things. After the conversation is over, it won't matter how you opened, it won't matter if the person felt suspicious. I can't control your upbringing or your day. You either are friends, or you likely won't see them again. No one died.
