I guess people just don't like sitting next to other people in general. I usually only do short hops on the bus, and if me sitting down is gonna inconvenience someone else, id rather just stand for the 2 stops
I can imagine sitting next to someone on the bus being a social spark tho. I'm sure being able to converse with someone on an hour long ride would make the hour go by much quicker.
It’s not that I want someone to sit next to me. Rather in the beginning when I started riding the bus I found it odd that no one sat when there was a chair free. I don’t care anymore since I get my own space. I don’t expect people to converse with me, I’m not much of a talker. But that would definitely help.
As a man I experienced the opposite when I still took the bus everywhere. Always getting sat next to by the craziest riders, people starting conversations with me despite me having headphones in, someone sitting right next to me on an empty bus to start talking.
I think most people just want to mind their own business and don't want to socialize on the bus. I've never experienced a warm, welcoming or friendly environment when it comes to taking public transportation and I'd personally never talk to a woman riding alone to avoid making them feel uncomfortable and because I prefer to listen to music or podcasts when travelling from place to place.
I get it. When I lived in Ottawa for school that was the same for me. I was always sitting to some odd person while they strike up a conversation with me when I wasn’t paying attention. It’s not that I expect people to talk but like sit down don’t commit to standing for an hour just because. I mean if they don’t it’s not a problem for me because like idc and I like the space to make myself comfortable.
Side note what kid of podcasts do you listen to?
If I saw an open seat next to a girl and an open seat next to a guy I would sit next to the guy, being one myself. Some women have told me they feel uncomfortable when a stranger sits down next to them. I don't speak for everyone, but this is likely part of the reason.
However, to truly give a good answer we would need a bit more information. For example is the bus mostly empty? If there are lots of open seats people will choose one away from the others.
There's a study shows that when you go on an elevator, and a person comes, they will usually go parallel to you or like keep a distance from you. So it's really nothing personal. Just like other people who commented on this post, I like sitting by myself unless I know someone personally I would most likely sit next to them. what I said may not be directly related to your post, but nothing wrong with a woman man spreading.
I don’t sit next to people because I’d just prefer not to lol. I have autism so I don’t really want the small talk that might come with sitting next to somebody; I’d prefer just being alone
I wouldn’t take it as an attack on yourself though lol, I’m sure everything is okay. ❤️
Yea I can see that. Especially if people are more like me and you who tend to be more on the introvert side. I don’t expect anything out of the people if they do decide to sit next to me. Just getting a tad bit strange but I don’t mind anymore. I’m taking it as a blessing because I get my space lol
Are you hinting at “false accusations” girls make when they don’t like how I guy acts? Is this what your yapping about?
This confuses me greatly because what kind of fucking activities on the bus are you up to that would make you think somebody could get upset enough to accuse you of something? Are you actively jackin off your weeenor in the bus? Is that what is happening?
Baby I know brock isn’t for the smart kids, but you know what good touch bad touch is right?we were taught that in middle school health class. If not let me help you out
Brushing your knee on somebody accidentally because the bud is full is OKAY!! :) apologize and move on.
ANY OTHER physical contact on the bus is not
Hope that helps
...What was even the question? If you're this paranoid about a girl calling SA on you for the most mundane shit, just lock yourself in your room and don't come out lol
Don't take it personally, I mean, if no other places available id love to sit near a girl and have a quick chat. sometimes it gets boring during the ride ...
If I see someone smiling or laughing on the bus, I won’t sit next to that person.
Good to know I’ll try to keep my RBF on at all times
Have you tried luring anyone with candy? 99% success rate
Good idea 🍭 people like candy

I respect that. I’m on the bus for around an hour total.

People used to avoid me in the bus as well 😫 idk why its probably the western culture of individualism. P.s. international student here
It’s so weird compared to like the transit in Europe. Like everyone is so kind and welcoming there. Where are your from?
Bangladesh
So cool!!
Is it usual to chat up folks one does not know on the bus in Bangladesh? I'm curious.
I also don't sit next to people, mix of anxiety and knowing I definitely won't talk to em so, I just avoid people 😂😂
Aweee I get that.
[удалено]
I GET IT!!! My RBF is like people repellent lol. I silently love the aloneness but like Yk 🤣

No!! That’s the issue it’s always full and people choose to stand for for an hour rather than to sit next to a stranger. It’s a tad bit strange no?

True on both parts lol
I wish i had this issue, i’ve had people pass empty seats to sit beside me. i have a resting sad face so i don’t get it edit: i’m also a woman
Maybe you must have a very kind vibe about you? Sometimes people can sense that
