I really hate it when people strike up conversations with me on a plane. I don't like to be all that social when flying.

If someone did start to chat I would reply but what I really hate is those who don't take the cue that I want to get back to reading my book or whatever it is I am doing (i.e. if I don't close my book and give you my full attention it probably means I am more interested in my book).

It isn't because I don't want to be polite its just that I have my full share of banal conversations thank you and I don't want more (yes, I know I could be shutting myself off from meeting a good friend or having a good conversation but the odds are truly stacked against this IMO).

As for sleeping on my shoulder? Ewww. While I suppose if she was cute I wouldn't be all that bothered but geez, what if it were reversed? Would you really want some stranger leaning their potentially lice-ridden head on your shoulder?
