Today, there a was a gentleman who was perhaps 55 plus, balding but cheerful gentleman who sat smiling genially at everyone. But, unfortunately no one returned his smile. Several college girls, housewives, working women got in but none smiled back. Everyone was too engrossed in their own thoughts or studiously ignoring a stranger smiling at them. I offered a tentative half smile and then quickly looked away. Why?
Years of living in a big city had robbed the women of their ability to trust any person openly to smile back including yours truly.
