I laughed really hard because two of my friends said I was arrogant. This happened just because I didn't greet or smile at them when we passed each other on the street.
No, it's not like that, really. I'm not arrogant, just nearsighted
. Obviously, I can't see their faces from a distance.
I don't know how many people have said that to me. And I have also explained to them many many times.
Seriously, they should have understood

I have experienced that too. I can hardly identify the person in a distance. I do tell those friends of mine that I am very sorry that I haven't greeted them for I couldn't readily identify them.

It must be very difficult with conditions like that right? I became a little difficult to socialize because of it

@kasmakarim Don't worry. Just live that way. I know there are others who can understand you.

Sometimes I don't even recognize a person until close up because I am not expecting to see them.

@kasmakarim Right, I am usually thinking of other things or watching where I am going and who is around me.

Hm, that's right. Besides, obviously we can't pay attention to everyone who passes us, right?

I think nodding is enough, at least with that we aren't labeled arrogant

I think you're actually near sighted which means you can see things close up, but not in the distance.

Oh, yeah. Sorry, I miss-understood with the word I thought it means someone who can't see far because there is a word "far" in it
