Why Did I Refuse This Random Act of Kindness?

Yeah and I'm not shy about talking with strangers. It's pretty much what I do as part of my assistant anthropologist gig.

Was it that the kind stranger was so much younger or male or that I was thinking in the back of my mind Maybe Tom has helped him but the stranger didn't want to say anything in such a public space* and I wanted Tom to myself for that brief time at Starbucks or ...?

I don't know. I was unnecessarily rude. That much is for sure. The Case of the Starbucks Stranger remains a mystery to me. I'm usually a shade less bitchy.

*Think something like psychiatrist and you're close.
