    i have to go with a mix of A and B. I am very friendly and if they are friendly to me.. :). however.. i do move forward with caution. sometimes friendly turns to creepy very fast.
    I usually give the somebody the benefit of the doubt at first. I am in complete support of being nice and appreciate nice gestures from others.

    But then ... if I get enough signals to determine that somebody overly "Unusual", I tend to coast in the conversation until the other person finally gives up.

    B! I love to run into overly nice people! Bubbly and happy, happy, happy. Makes me smile!

    If it turns out they aren't so nice...well....

    Used to and still sometimes B but I've been burned so I'm trying to be more A.
  • I wanted to add this quote too. I think its really true. But I understand why people don't trust people who are overly nice.

    D. I have social anxiety.

    I'm going back in my bedroom now. Safe there.

    If I'm irritated, it'll annoy me. If I'm in a good mood, I'll smile back like Goldfish crackers. :D

    When a complete stranger, either online or in real life, approaches you, unsolicited, and is overly nice to you, for no apparent reason, are you:

    A. Cautious, and curious as to what scam they are trying to pull

    B. Delighted, that the world is full of such super-dee-duper nice people

    C. Annoyed, because overly happy people are clearly annoying

    D. Fearful, because they're setting you up for an assault and are very likely a carrier of multiple diseases

    Depending on what the person is like. Usually B because I am often one of those overly nice people. But sometimes D, if it is someone who looks scary (in real life).

    A, because I think I look like a pushover, and they want to sell me something,

    and C. Overly nice people are like good-morning people. (I am NOT a morning person.) I find them MORE than annoying. :grumble:

    I'd like to add the following:

    E. Confused as hell because people down here aren't nice. Ever.

    Otherwise, I'll go with C. Because I'm not nice either. ;)

    Tell me, how does it make you feel?
    I don't know. No ever approaches me. I'm kinda scary.
    Me too. I've seen people that I've never met cross to the other side of the street to avoid crossing my path. :huh:

    One of my coworkers said to me "You're not like I thought when I first saw you." and when I asked, he said "Scary. Too big. Too bald. Just scary."

    On the original subject, "A" all the way... and I love it when someone proves my suspicions wrong!!

    What do y'all mean by "overly nice", anyway? Most folks down here are what some might call "overly nice". I just call it being "neighborly". :flowerforyou:

    Just don't give me a reason not to be nice, and we'll all be OK.

    Nice I like. Overly nice I find annoying and phoney. If you fart rainbows step away or I might puke on your shoes.
