Why my post was removed?
I was sitting in park, and young guy walks by, looking happy. He saw me and change his direction, so he goes to me and with big smile he said: -Hello, do you speak English? -Hi, yes. -Perfect. Can you draw something for me? -What? And he hands me a little notebook with a pencil, when he has a lot of doodles and messages from strange people. We start talking and he explained to me, he wanted to start a new life because he wasn't happy, so he move there (Berlin). He said he never really had any friends because he is very shy and has anxiety, so he create this. This little notebook is his way, how to interact with strangers. I was shocked, because I can't draw, but a lot of people just draw sun, or tree or just simple doodles like from 5 yearl old child, together with "Good luck!" or something. I asked how many pictures he has and he said "I dont know, I dont count them. I 'read' my notebook when Im feeling down and miserable, because I cant find a job and dont have friends yet, but its not about the pictures. I like them, of course, but I love the little conversation with the person." I draw something for him with a little note, and he wished me a good luck in everything and nice day. Then he leaved with big smile. I also aksed if he get rejected somethimes, and he said yes. He knows its kinda childish, but he said he is not insulting or offending anyone by asking for a quick doodle. If somebody says "no" he apologies for disturbing and go away. He get rejected mostly from young artistic people who dont want to draw for free. Also a lot of rejection from young women which made me thinking. Now Im asking you, if he would came to you, what would you do? I would just like to mention, that he didnt asked me out, didnt asked for my number or anything, even though he said Im beautiful and knew I dont have boyfriend. So he is not using it as dating technique. We just talk for 10 minutes, about our life. I could see in his eyes how happy he was just because he talk with strager.. So..what would you do?
