My best friend says I start people at ten and then they have to work real hard to work their way down. He starts people at zero, and they have to earn their way up. While five would be a healthy balance, I think it’s true that I tend to meet people and find them fascinating quickly. I love to meet strangers and I take road trips often where my focus is sitting at breweries and people watching. I engage in conversations with odd people, interesting, unique, funny, funky, kind, intimidating, scary, ridiculous people. I always leave feeling richer for having met them and most of my current friends I met this way. My friend says half of the people I’ve met could be thieves, killers, rapists, bullshitters. It took him six months of me showing up at his favorite sports bar for him to let me move up on the 1-10 scale. Lol! I knew we’d be friends since day one, he knew after six months.
