I’ve had no issue making eye contact, smiling, and saying hi to everyone on the trail. Are you being weird about it?

I smile and say hi to people when walking/hiking and jogging on and off trails all the time. No issues. That’s actually when people are consistently the friendliest to me.

How are you doing it?
