Reply to comment by GinWithJennifer in Do you plan on moving out of Springfield and/or out of Missouri in the next 12 months and where are you thinking? by EdBlake1986

I get this sentiment. People in this area like to talk. They want to interact. I believe there are many people from rural areas that just really appreciate their neighbors. I also been to places where young people and old people don't talk. Here, I think because of the strong family ties, you see more age diverse groups hanging out.

We have places around us where it is just you and trees.

Just my two cents. Everyone perspective is different.

Yea there's nothing wrong with it but it makes me very uncomfortable when random people try to talk to me. Like man I'm just here O_o idk. I stopped going to some places I used to like to just sit and enjoy the atmosphere of because people would talk to me. I get exhausted entertaining people. I know it's crack for extroverts but they draining my mental energy like a vampire. Nothing makes my brain more exhausted than entertaining people. Like 2 hours of that feels like 8 hours of work.
