New start
It commonly starts with the occasionally seeing each other at a goodfriends place that you both meet pretty often but not too much. Theexcitement over the one builds up after a little chat here and there,evolving into a shallow friendship and either way you are starting tofeel attracted to the person. At first look it maybe didn’t look asmuch but after a few brief conversations you notice that the oneyou’re talking too actually attracts you, other than just to passthe time. That’s what my newly made mate told me outside the small Cafeteria in a kind of small town in Sweden.
One of the first thinghe said was that I wasn’t as afraid of making contact as otherSwedish people usually are. For example his girlfriend, it took himtwo years before they started to go out, and for them both to feelattraction to each other.
And that came from working together with Archaeology all over the world, living in small cabins, basically in athree square meter room with two 3 foot beds in it.
And that’s what I'm aiming for when I write this, it’s just bullshit in any way you look at it, but to be honest nearly all conversations and books are.Finding out small bits and pieces about a person at a time, like sitting outside on a bench-table taking a coffee and just yapping on,and occasionally something a bit deeper slips out and you get moreconfident in the person sitting in front of you. This is how afriendship starts to build up, I am certainly not saying I’m an expert on the area but if you look into it and start to think about it’s like that, it really is. Of course some people will meet up ina bar anywhere, no matter where the other one originate from but that’s not usual at all, at least in my “twisted" Swedishopinion.
