but other people could be a danger to me. people dont like to wave and move on or take 'no' for an answer. Sometimes i just want to be peaceful and sit outside enjoying my trip. I dont like it when others feel the need to bring their lives into my space.

People are generally terrifying and want something from you. Thats one of the last things I want to deal with when im tripping. I get so terrified of encountering sober/drunk strangers that i'll wait to go for a walk until 3-4am but then look down the long stretch and see movement then realize 'oh i think thats a person. better stay here where it's safe' (theres likely noone there...but i wont risk it)
