I was in London for work for 2 nights earlier this year. On my first day I had quite a bit of time free so decided to go to one of the central parks for a walk and chill. I sat on a bench and a man sat next to me. I didn't even look at him as I was just enjoying the peace! He started a conversation and we instantly hit it off. I am super shy and normally wouldn't even know what to say! But somehow we sat there chatting for an hour. It was getting a bit chilly so we ended up going to a local coffee shop ( I would never do this) and were engrossed in conversation literally for hours. Before we knew it, it was late evening. I went back to my hotel and he went home. It was very unlike me and he said the same about himself too. The next day we agreed to meet again for a bite to eat after work and we ended up chatting about everything and anything all evening. I found him so easy to talk and felt really comfortable with him. We laughed a lot and got on so well. He totally "got" me. It was utterly bizarre. We've stayed in touch it's been such a lovely thing. He's become such a good friend. I feel I've known him all my life.
