I meet alot of people who arent comfortable around new people (me) , and they even get hostile when you try to initiate contact with them. Or ignore you.
But after some time, they kinda wanna talk eventually.
It seems like they want to see what im really like, which i find funny, because the only way you can get a feel of someone is by actually communicating, and not doing stupid initiation rituals.
Actually, another question would be, why do people need some strange initiation rituals to start to communicate with someone?
