  • Seeing your more description here:

    TBH I would not know how to reply. I think your response sounds a bit rude, but not bad - and the other guy ought to take it in his stride and get over it.

    The trick - apparently - is to be somehow quick-witted and articulate at the same time as you’re feeling anxious and crowded. Something like, “sorry, I’m not in a good space for strangers right now.” …But then, some strangers would take that as a cue of openness and enthusiastically start strangersplaining to you how they’re a good’un and it’s all alright and anyway you should be more open to people because society’s better that way…

    So maybe your response isn’t all that bad, in the end.

    Or, “not at the moment, sorry.”

    See, eventually I can come up with a good response!
