I used to love talking to strangers when i first started going out, i was always meeting new cool people. Nowdays tho strangers annoy me and if i do start talking to someone it just seems fake and shallow. I dunno whether ive changed or what but ppl just dont seem genuine anymore. sometimes il meet the random person and realy like chatting with them but doesnt happen much these days.

i haven't been out rolling at a club in aaaages - and where i used to be the type to chill to the comeup, usually with a few convos, and then boogie till closing time.. it became more about having a boogie early then retreating to the more chilled out areas of the bars and clubs i was in to just enjoy the sounds and sights - as well as random convos with random people, having said that, i'm a very outgoing kinda person regardless of what i'm on (if i'm even on anything at all)
i'm going out next weekend tho - think i might take a few spares with me and see what happens... will be fun either way i should imagine

Yeah im actually a big fan of the social understanding that ecstasy brings to you.
i dont think i would go as far as start conversations with complete strangers however if im hanging out with you no matter how well we know eachother by the end of the night its garunteed that we will be good friends.

Not to long ago i went to see Korn, Disturbed and hatebreed, and wen i was in the mosh i was talking to everyone around me, having good old convos with them, but wen korn came out. fuck them all, i just start moshing. so much fun. If im on pills i like goin to talk on people on pills but if they arnt i dont want to cause they will just think im a fuckhead, and it wouldnt be a good convo anyways.

I love the way e just 'connects' you with strangers. That said, I find the convos on THC or psychedelics much more interesting.
On E, mu convos with non-strangers are more fun "OMG, you are the most beautiful being in the Universe" :::: "Yeah, so are you. Can I touch you?" ::: "Oh yes please!!".

I believe that it is human nature to treat other human beings as one unified "tribe" or community, that humans naturally communicate with one another as though they are lifelong pals, perhaps relatively close friends, or at least friendly aquaintences.
I believe society forces the mentality upon us that there are "strangers," that is, members of our race that we do not socialize with on a regular basis, and therefore, should not socialize with at all (unless of course, you wanna fuck). We are all victims of this, its just the way our world conforms us. You are in a club/bar/concert/mall/etc and you sit next to someone you dont know, sober minded - you simply nod hello or perhaps engage in small talk. You dont care for anythign more, and neither do they, unless some uncommon connection brings the conversation more in depth. Otherwise, the social infrastructure keeps relationships with unknown people very distant, if existant at all. People desire to spend liesure time at places with crowds of people seeking the same liesure (no one walks into a club that is empty and thinks wow, this place is bangin). At the same time, most everyone doesnt have a desire to engage in social interaction with anyone esle except for the group of people they came with. This is a strange, and IMHO unnatural paradox.
I believe the MDMA destroys that nurtured conformity, and releases the true nature of social interaction within. I dont believe its because you are high and just need to talk, I believe its because a condition arises in our minds that allows us to overcome unspoken social bonds and commune with our surroundings, and those in them, equally.
I believe that typing this out has reminded me that I am long overdue for a nice solid bean.

yeah great interpretation.
I think talking to randoms is apart of the fun. I'm mainly busy dacing my ass off when chopped but when I do take 5 on the outskirts or at the bar I'll often start chatting to the people near me...which do happen to mainly be the fellas
sorta quickly decide wherther or not they look like they wanna talk first tho. Don't mind pple talking to me.

it depends.
Sometimes I want to be lost in my own thoughts and really don't want to talk to anyone. Sometimes I just want to dance all night, by myself, and not talk to anyone.
Most times talking to strangers and befriending them happens by accident. Usually they will be the one to approach me (its not an approach as in walk across the room specifically to talk to me, but rather they're beside me on the dance floor/at the bar etc and they turn and start talking to me). I do talk to strangers, but not with the intent to start up a conversation and make friends, that usually comes as a side product. I usually just make a comment, sometimes it goes from there sometimes not.
Eg: I always dance by myself, and every so often go looking for my friends, so I'll walk into another area, look around, and will notice that a stranger has noticed me walk in and look around. Sober or on alcohol, I'll usually say nothing, maybe smile at the most part. On ecstasy, I will most likely make a comment along the lines of: "I'm looking for my friends, was dancing and now I'm gonna find them". Nine times out of ten, without it actually intending to, that turns into a conversation with that person.
I never have the intentions of talking to strangers, but I always seem to end up making new friends all the time in that manner!
Except when I want to be lost in my head and my thoughts. Then I speak to nobody, not even my friends.

I love chatting to girls when on e.. or just go up to them and give them a bit of a hug. The problem is when they arent on e and think that you're totally nuts.. lol

I find myself in different stages. At some points I don't want to bothered but just want to be left in my little world to feel the bliss. At certain times I can even find it annoying if someone is blabbling away and ruining my moment. Other times I just want to talk talk talk!

While it is not hard for me to communicate with my fellow man, I feel that a lot of the times general inhibitions and maybe some mild social anxiety prevent me from interacting with people i do not know very well. The right dose of MDMA is the fucking kryptonite for that shit because when i roll hard i can hold an hour long conversation with anyone. That is one of the domineeering factors of my ecstasy use, empathy baby, its that fi-yah.
I know what you mean. I can go from life of the party to very introspective and chill while under the influence of MDMA. Have you ever forgot what you were talking about in the middle of your sentence on e? I usually just start hysterically laughing

To me talking to strangers while on E is one of my most favourite things!
I recall one time at a club I just went to the toilet and somehow ended having a conversation there with a stranger of all places. The best part of it was it started out just being us 2 but an about an hour later there were 5 other guys involved in this conversation all standing around in the toilets. We were all peeking our heads off which made it that oh so much better

But Im Eee'd up and smoking a big fat spliff I chat with the poeple hangin around waiting for me to deside who gets it lol wakky times i love it

I'm a very anti-social person to begin with, and E helps to bring out my social side.
I've had some bad experiences already(pretty new to the scene, too), in that when I was rolling balls, it seemed like noone I talked to was, because I took my pill way late at a party.
And I can't do E at small closed raves because it's just too damn loud to hear anyone talking.

raves are the greatest thing that ever came to the E-scene .... its pure magic to see thousands of people befriend each other in one night. so yes, i agree its a great social drug and is one of the highlights i have with it.

I absolutely LOVE talking to people while i'm on E, or if they're just on E, whatever.
Its like a utopian society, almost.
I live in a city where just walking to get a bottle of Fruitopia from the store, I can meet about 6-7 people rollin', haha.
But back on, Yeah... I meet so many new friends, I'll just see people i've seen in my everyday life, be it on the bus, or in my apartment building, whatever....And be like, damn, why havent I talked to them? and I'll go up, have a conversation (even if they're sober), its all good. I used to be alot more anti-social before I started doing E and I think since the first time i've done it, alot of my anti-socialism has been destroyed. Its a magic drug man, its truely bomb.
I love the deep, true, almost sacred conversations you can have with old and new friends alike (About life, Love, problems, Whats going to happen tomorrow and reflections on what happened today, god, I love reminiscing about the past on E, makes your happiest memory seem so vivid, it gives you chills) , I just truely hate the "E-tard" conversations and "client" conversations at clubs. ya know, the bullshit "What kind of E ya on?" "Get me some" "Yo man, your awsome, sell me a smoke" bla bla.... But otherwise....Awsome
