Personal space. Strangers shouldn't invade it. I was in the bank line, and this woman (who would have been attractive ten years ago), was a little too close to me. Now my personal space is about a foot and a half. That's a decent space between two people. Getting inside that annoys me to no end. This woman bumped into me just moving around. But the thing is that if you can hear someone breath without super-hearing, they are too close. I should have had Goldsboro's Finest in front of me arrest her for tresspassing.Does this bother anyone else? ------------------ (This message has been edited by the Website Enforcement Authority, and rigoruosly inspected by 12.)

I can empathize. I too have a rather neuroticly large personal zone. But banks don't bother me so much as the lines at Taco Bell.------------------ "And give me back my evil heart so I can see you as you are." -- John Linnell

Having grown up in crowded cities, lack of personal space doesn't really bother me in public. At home, however, that's a different story.------------------ "I would be delighted to offer any advice I can on understanding women. When I have some, I'll let you know." --Picard to Data, "In Theory"

This woman was breaching personal space and getting into intimate space. Please, not at the bank. ------------------ (This message has been edited by the Website Enforcement Authority, and rigoruosly inspected by 12.) [This message has been edited by Cargile (edited July 17, 1999).]

Try letting your head roll back, and mumbling "Yes Master, I'll make them pay". If all else fails, Fart! (Al Yankovic is playing on the radio right now) If it's a nice place, and you want to continue to be welcome, try turning around to face he, Lick your lips, move your eyebrows up and down. ------------------ WHO ARE YOU?

My personal space is EXTREMELY important to me, and only the people I love are allowed to get really close. *LOL*... especially at home.. my room is my own little private haven and I HATE when people just walk in.------------------ I'm you're only friend, I'm not your only friend, but I'm a little glowing friend, but really i'm not actually a friend, but I am.

Personal space is very important, especially to us clausrophobites. If anyone gets within 3 or 4 feet, I freak. Once I had this lady at work poke me right in the side, which is a hot spot for many people. I had to keep from slugging her right in front of the whole store.------------------ Don't believe what you see Don't believe what you hear
