I'm a very tall woman so when I meet another woman my height I seem to immediately feel that common bond with them.
Yes, My friend Robin when I first met her we had an instant connection. It was a very cold and windy evening, Robin walked into a room I was in and greeted me, then she said, Listen to the wind speak, I noticed that she was carrying small stones in her hand That was it. I knew she had a spiritual vibe and from that moment on we were friends.
My friend Jackie whom I met at age 21 and who has been deceased since 1985. We met at a traffic light while walkign home from town. We clicked instantly and later foundout that she had dated my brother Bill for awhile. We remained friends for many years until her death at age 38 from a massive stroke.
Little old introverted me - I find things in common with just about everyone I talk to and people feel "connected" to me more readily than I feel connected to them. It's kind weird.
Joyful48 I have found that to be so with myself also. In fact by best friend since were were 15 years old was 5 foot 9 just like me...we instantly bonded because of the height.
have run into others too where there was that instantaneous click, and I have never regretted allowing myself to be more open when that was the basis of a budding friendship. The counterpart of that click, the nails on the chalkboard type response...I have also learned it is best to do a 180 and walk.
