Friendship Paradox & 'Need to get to know you first' (Self-security?) 

Friendship Paradox & 'Need to get to know you first'

TLDR If your too wary or thinking about stranger danger you might not get anywhere with anyone! (Or it's not worth the anxiety doubt etc.. people ARE just strange / different)

Many have said the Paradox to me
● "but I don't know you" and
● "maybe when we're friends we can talk more"
What a paradox...
□ No chat because we're not friends
□ And can't be much friends without chat

Now I understand a few expected reasons like
● Internet paranoia and
● I'm not single or looking for a date

But the whole idea for friendship is
● towards solving the world from being unfriendly
● checking out people instead of blocking them (even to stop people acting 'weird' from being blocked).

Worst is perhaps 'Need to get to know you first' and stay not talking about yours or my topic (not much relativity arises)

My Version is that friendship we should
● expect EVERYONE to be weird (at least at first and while you get to know them THAT IS THE PROCESS!! And weird is often better in some characteristical way)
● all friends hurt feelings of other friends so pardon any stranger also!... its part of growing or getting used to styles, many of which can match your style if mind is a open a little rather than battling yourself or others to keep them so distanced.
● honesty is also good to practise although again hurts with defensive feelings or rejection of thoughts often offends...

...still if you don't try be friendly or friends, what can you expect from others?

Hope that shows you how simple or hard people can make it for me and others.
