‘Strange’ Relationship !!!!


After a long break in posting post on 4th dimension, I suddenly aggravated by a stranger who pop in gtalk and asking for next post… it feels good when unknown people shows eagerness to read your words or gives their feedback. But strange question rose in my unexplored brain, why we feel so? May be answer needs some research psychologically, biologically, technically, culturally, socially, name the discipline and you’ll get chance of explore a very special, temporary, formal, funy , in short a STRANGE relationship with people and world around us.

Relationship with strangers seems to be very complex statement, very lightly taken and very often ignored. World is full of strangers, by strangers here simply means people whom we don’t know. Practically it is used for people whom we don’t WANT to know. Modern culture forces us to confine ourselves to what we call SELF. If look carefully these strangers, we’ll realize that how much we are losing by not talking or maintaining distance with these unknown people. We have some prejudice, false sense of status, caste, rank etc and when we come above all this and allow ourselves to interact with strangers, it’ll actually led to good contributing to our knowledge. These stranger relationships are very short, it last till we are unknown, the moment we became known, we really loose stranger and relationships (of any kind) is always restrictive to your knowledge and Intel.

There are various reasons why people don’t like to interact with strangers, after all its their acceptance to restrict self from knowledge of other side. It’s really difficult to rate contribution for strangers in our knowledge. illiterate farmer in train can teach you various variety of crops, mechanic on road side can teach how to clean corroborator of your car, waiter in restaurant can teach you how to wear a tie, watchman at gate can show you tricks late night partying, every person on this earth has something to show, it’s up to us whether we have ogle to see that or not.

I have derived some do and don’ts from ‘prathamology’ with strangers,

Do
  • Give smile to everyone who looks at you, irrespective to gender of that person
  • Try to strike conversation, make stranger to talk, it’ll improve your communication skills
  • Try to maintain dignity of that person, don’t show off unnecessarily
  • Speak Less, listen more, I bet u’ll get more information from stranger
  • Be polite to rudeness
  • Be funny, informal, broad minded, not only to accept ideas but to reject also
  • Show acceptance and appreciations, its most challenging task
  • Try to know problems, don’t provide solutions
  • Enjoy time you got to spend with strangers, don’t make them time pass, we don’t learn from time pass


Don’t
  • Don’t be arrogant; other person can be more arrogant than you
  • Don’t judge person, that’s not your job
  • Don’t expect anything, not even good response
  • Don’t try to correct him/her if that person is wrong, u may lead to argument and grudges latter on
  • Don’t Try to prove yourself better than stranger, learn from stranger don’t teach
  • Don’t be professional, professionalism is way maintain distance from others
  • Don’t Emotional; be aware of your own feelings especially in terms of opposite gender
  • Don’t try to impress stranger, it’s a big mistake, u can be understood in other sense
  • Don’t bring your prejudices, status, qualifications in mind while talking, be open to ideas
  • Don’t Force strangers to talk, be a good person
  • Don’t talk which can hurt feelings of stranger
  • Don’t Think of any professional benefits, sometimes non monetary things gives more pleasure
  • Don’t ignore friend requests until talking to unknown people, you’ll always have chance to block or unfriend that person if u don’t like later on
  • Don’t committee anything; facebook do not stranger as relationship status :) 
  • Don’t Lie, that stranger always tends to verify your words
  • Finally, Don’t Start flirting immediately (when it is opposite gender); you have lots of time once you break relationship of stranger :)   


God is unknown and unknown is god, all friends were strangers before they become friends, we never know who, when and where will walking in our life, so keep every doors and windows open, allow people to come in and also to go out of life.
