And a more entitled, boundary-invasive side. Things seem to be getting marginally better but so-many people out there don’t understand the concept of boundaries or don’t really apprehend them cue that someone’s drawing the line with them and doesn’t want to get into anything personal with them (because they don’t like, trust or know them well-enough). No-one owes a (relative or total) stranger anything beyond stock cordiality but nowadays you get people you only know very vaguely trying to get all up in your business and making it awkward when you insert your boundaries. They’re the types of people who’ll go up to someone reading quietly with a face-mask on and think it’s a good idea to have a conversation with them. But all this is more of a deeper societal peeve than an ordinary public one per se.
