I always have a tendency to overthink things, and of all things I hate most, it’s seeing people all lonely. One of my friend’s teachers at school walks around the cafeteria at lunch for safety reasons, and as she pointed out her teacher, I saw how lonely she looked. All the other teachers buddy up and talk the whole time, but this woman was just staring up at one of the tv screens with the most blank expression. I kinda want to just approach her and keep her company, but I don’t know her at ALL, and my friend won’t agree to come up with me and talk to her. What should I do? How should I approach her? SHOULD I approach her?

I don’t ever have a lot of people around me, and you coming up to me, would probably irritate me. I’ve been conditioned to be isolated and actually its been that way for so long, that’s really the way I like it most of the time. That’s choice though. Believe me if and when I want something, a friend, a beer, a woman, all I need to do is go for it. I have people literally begging for my time. I’d just rather be alone
Yeah, but I can’t know if she’s like that. Would it kill her to talk to a little tot like me?
If you’re a “tot” then yes she could get into trouble
I’m aware of the rules, however, if it’s on school grounds, should it really be such an issue? You have a good point- I’m in high school, and I’m rather aware of how strict teacher-student rules can be. I just wanted to make her smile, that’s all. I’ll leave her be. Thank you for the insight and wisdom, I truly appreciate it. 🙂
I agree. Leave the person alone. Some people. even if they look “lonely” they just know what people are like. People with seemingly good intentions are capable of the worst things you can imagine. That’s the truth, and she might have experienced it first hand, more than once. Look at this board for example. Even if it’s fake, this shit is running through peoples minds.
You seem young, but when you finally realize and accept, really accept that people are generally shit, it’s not sad. It’s a relief. It really is.
I believe you are a student? Is this university? What are the fraternization rules? If nobody can get in trouble go for it!
