Survivor dilemma

[Hrusai]

ok so lots to catch up in this thread ^^

so here goes! first off i used to be a very socialable person, but know no one irl that have the same views as me, i mean theres a guy in my vilage whose got his own survival training and believes in a few parts of prepping, but no where nears as much as me so i dont think its likely almost any of us will know fellow preppers close to us, unless we make a conceited effort to meet them!

for me if i encounter anyone from this website irl after THE event, i will trust them, simply from our sharing of knowledge and the friendliness of the community here, so if i meet any of you guys, just mention your name and i wouldnt be violent

as for a call from anyone, i would strive to meet up with you guys if i heard a radio broadcast rquesting help or a meeting, not to mention i'd bring some things for trading ...but yes having some preset rendez vous points and dates and times will be a very good practise!...maybe even meeting at these places before an event to get used to it?....but i think talk of such plans should be in their own thread!


i think any encounter with people after an event will be difficult, regardless of prior knowledge of them or not, large groups should be avoided, even small groups should be in most situations, i think it will be alot easier to be a man than a woman in these cicrumstances, as theres less personal danger....but at the same time, you may just be seen as a threat! its definately a difficult call and i dont think theres a perfect way to go about meeting people, its going to be a case of make it up as you go along...but it sure as hell doesnt hurt to understand different pyschological stand points and be able to identify them, being able to see a conversation/encounter/negotiation/deal going bad mid way through is a great skill as you can at least try to diffuse the situation/ prepare yourself for a scuffle.
