[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 753106, member: 16024"] Interesting topic, Nomad. A few years ago I belonged a to an online board that got into a discussion about what they (assumed) random strangers were thinking about them as they walked down the street with their spouses/significant others. It was informative. Seems that everyone who chimed in seemed to believe that others were focusing on them and that they were the center of attention in most situations out in public. Several thought that people were jealous or envious of them because of their or their spouses’ looks and dress. A couple of people assumed people were thinking negative things about their (presumed) age differences or interracial relationships. Some thought that people envied their obvious wealth or possessions. They all were in agreement about one thing though—they themselves didn’t have any of those thoughts about random strangers and barely noticed their existence. No one noticed the irony. [/QUOTE]
