STRANGERS
I'm pretty sure that all of you have heard the cliche story of meeting a stranger and locking eyes with them at a party and exchanging number. And before you know it, you're dating and then soon you're in love. we ll it doesn't happen in real- life, does it ?
According to Google, a stranger is a person who you have never met or aren't really familiar with. But do you actually know that strangers are so much better than the people you already know? All of us were strangers before we met or the first time we met.
When you meet a new person, you get a fresh start.You can be whoever you want to and you have the liberty to decide whether or not to befriend that person. It actually gives you choice to asses the person and know a little about them. If you don't like their overall 'vibe' then you can choose not to meet again or not befriend them. It gives you the alternative to set them free without any regrets because you don't know them so there isn't a connection or an attachment established between the both of you. When you are with a stranger, you can absolutely care about nothing and pour your heart in front of them, because you don't know them so there is nothing for you to lose. And isn't it the best feeling ever when someone hears you out talking about all the things you feel or all your problems without caring about it much because they don't know you.
Whereas when you are with your friends or people you know, you are scared that they will judge for your problems and that will ruin your friendship. You are worried that you will say something to offend them or hurt them in some way bur while with a stranger, you can say whatever you want and not care about it all because it doesn't really matter. But what the fear actually is about is that they might say or do something that might hurt you, something so terrible that you might hate them and you don't want to hate them. You are constantly worried that they might've forgotten about you and moved to a better person because you are a really fucked up person with only problems and they want to befriend someone that is actually fun. You are under the constant anxiety of overthinking and fretting about how you will manage without someone you really used to care about and they used to care about you too until you did something that ruined the relationship you both had.
With a stranger you can be a different person, you can talk about your problems, you can get drunk and do something stupid and it won't matter because they don't care since you just met. Life is a lot less complex when you are with a stranger and that's why some of you enjoy meeting people not just because you want many friends but also you can open up your heart with them without the constant fear of losing them.
But at the end of the day all of us need friends or people. Human contact is what makes us human. It is necessary for you to have people you can trust and rely upon. Friends are the people that sometimes make us happy and make us feel less lonely. You can love the feeling you get when you are with a stranger but you cannot live with that forever. You need stability and you feel that sense of stability and security when you are with someone you care about.
We all were strangers before we were friends :)
