Hello June,
yes, this idea of the UK out of Europe kind of shook me as other Europeans, Londoners and pro-remain people.
But there was an interesting side-effect: this common concern brings people together. You see a gorgeous guy sitting next to you at the cafĂ©, pub, … grieving for the loss … you join in with your grief to seek some kind of comfort… feeling the need to share emotions.
Is it a problem that he is a gorgeous blond with blue eyes? I didn’t even pay attention as the topic was so important… well he is working for a news program and he wanted to see how the other Europeans took it… so here I am today having coffee with him…
Will this collective emotion translate into something more personal?
It is hard to know right away; let’s see if we will meet again for drinks and more analysis!
