Firstly, thank you...Rory, this makes SO much sense! Firstly, thank you for reading and watching the video! Secondly, I have to agree with you in that whenever two strangers meet (just friends or dating, or any relationship) it very much centres on small talk. I have wished many times with people I've met that I could dive straight into the more meaningful stuff. You are so right when it comes to outlining the difficulties we face even with connecting with "strangers" over the internet. It would be incredible if we didn't have to worry about either of those scenarios :/ On the upside, blogging is awesome for that, hey? :) <br /><br />Thank you for your comment, it really made me think! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16508941482445214124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1551737104851694052.post-68384778697056184332016-02-29T04:33:34.034-08:002016-02-29T04:33:34.034-08:00Awww, yeah I really hope they're not scripted ...Awww, yeah I really hope they're not scripted either! :( Oooh, I didn't realise there was a video about that, I read an article about that series of questions though - looked so, so cool, I'm so impressed that you tried it out with someone! It seems like it would allow for a connection on a much deeper level, hey? I should give it a go eventually! :PAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16508941482445214124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1551737104851694052.post-4798559321592208772016-02-29T04:31:35.192-08:002016-02-29T04:31:35.192-08:00ME TOO, haha.

And again, you're so right in saying it's how we let those judgements potentially develop and influence us that is the significant part.

Peo...This is such a good subject to talk about! :D <br />People in the video were super friendly and talkative, I am not sure I could do the same with strangers haha.<br />In my country, for example,it is unusual to approach a girl/guy and ask for a coffee/number/date (except in night clubs,I guess) if you do not know them already. That makes is quite hard to get to know someone if they are not connected to your circle of friends. Even if you meet someone new,conversations are usually based around small talk and very shallow. I would actually love to talk to people about deeper stuff when I get to know them but I am not sure I could. Even with the internet widely avaliable,we still cannot connect to each other based on things unrelated to looks (if you try going to penpal sites; post a photo- get spammed by creeps, don't post a photo- never get a reply from anyone,even though you have a long description about your likes/dislikes/hobbies). A shame,really. It would be nicer if we were more honest and trust other people more. <br />-I wrote a lot on my phone,I hope I am making some sense and that it's not all jumbled up haha<br /><br />aluminah.wordpress.Roryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10640880150752155226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1551737104851694052.post-82718420933879906672016-02-28T23:07:06.081-08:002016-02-28T23:07:06.081-08:00Oh, that's so interesting!

I do hope they're not scripted, as I'm so fascinated by these. <br /><br />I saw another one, the 36 questions to make you fall in love! They were very interesting, and I tried it out with someone. It made for engaging conversation, but definitely not love.

I believe that the key is to not let those first impressions completely influence our opinion of somebody. x x If you looked at me and my boyfriend, I doubt you'd think that we're compatible 'at first glance'. But we get along so well, and are very compatible on an emotional level - which, in the end, is all that really matters. :) Great post, darling!

But unlike everyone else, it's less because of how much strangers interact and make instant connections, but rather how easy it is. It's easy to tell strangers everything because they don't know you, like your friends do. You're a blank canvas to them. And that fascinates me.<br /><br />xx Bash | <a href="http://www.heybash.com/" rel="nofollow">H E Y B A S H</a> | <a href="https://www.bloglovin.com/blogs/hey-bash-12089473" rel="nofollow">bloglovin'</a>Bash Harryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16956194903182205839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1551737104851694052.post-47798891869964127882016-02-25T04:00:58.910-08:002016-02-25T04:00:58.910-08:00Thank you, Miranda!
