Why people are reluctant to help for strangers?

        People are reluctant to engage in social interaction with strangers because their lives are busy and they are often too rushed. Most of the time, especially among adults who are working, people would like to slow down and have meaningful social interactions with people whom they just met, but they just can’t because of their busy schedules and they have to rush to get other things done. For example, in an office, standing somewhere in a line or talking to the shop owner as you buy something or just as you get a coffee in the morning, there are many times when a person would really like to take a few minutes and interact with another person probably because they would like say or ask something. However, this doesn’t happen because of the fast schedules that people have. Instead of taking a few minutes to talk to a person, someone might choose to just continue to what they are supposed to do because there are many other things to do in the same day and their schedule is rushed. People do not avoid interacting with strangers because they are not interest or concerned with them. It is because they are often busy. Even for strangers whom one may have a few minutes with, one might choose not to interact with them because considering their schedule, he or she may not be sure of meeting the person again.
