Familiar Strangers

1. Taking the bus almost every day and noticing the people who are most often there.

2. Working in the same building but different departments or at different companies, seeing each other in passing throughout the week.

3. People orbiting at the outer edges of each other's friend groups.

4. Taking the same workout class and encouraging each other but lowkey not knowing each other's names

5. Making efforts to connect a little deeper every time they meet. (Smiling, saying hello, exchanging a few pleasantries, giving a compliment, trying to start a conversation)
