I wasn't looking out but a simple act of kindness was given to me today.micknlea wrote:Just want to say that today was the total opposite for me.
Everywhere I went people said thank you when I held the door/lift door open etc. This was smack bang in the middle of the city in many of shopping malls.
Maybe as a result of this thread I was looking out for it more, or maybe its not as bad as your initial impressions.
A better term might be just a total lack of spatial awareness. sounds better than blur like sotong.earthfriendly wrote:I don't know if I am correct in my assumption but please feel free to correct. SGeans are very shy, uptight, reserve, and somewhat lack a sense of confidence. By extending a helping hand, they are afraid of bringing attention to themselves. Like myself, they tend to do better in small social group, away from public glare and scrutiny. When socialising with a small circle of friends, they tend to "loosen up" and are extremely kind, always volunteering their assistance like offering to help you push the baby stroller and carry your bags etc...
Add to the above characteristics is their lack of general awareness of events happening around them. They are rather one-dimensional and only focus on what they are doing. E.g if they are walking, only see the single path in front of them that they will be taking and prone to bump into someone accidentally. In short, they are very "blur" or clueless.
