Chances of running into someone you know in London?

Moving there soon and got some exes there :ninja:

They're into some of the same things (music) I am too :lol:

I hope that you do realise that the population is 8.9 million.

Then why are you asking us what are the chances, if you already know what the answer is?

Living in different areas (unless they've moved), very similar interests, and I'm going to a drawing class close to where the worst one is :rofl:

You've just said that when you visit London, you normally bump into them a lot.

So the likelihood of you colliding with them again, is stacked in your favour.

Chances are somewhat slim.
I don't live in London but got here quite frequently, bump into people I know all the time, always in the same areas though.

So the likely hood of you colliding with them again, is rather high.


You missed the point. Who does the same stuff when visiting a place as when living there? I mostly visit for gigs, which are in the hipstery areas (like Camden) my friends live in anyway. Obviously if you're living somewhere you don't go to a big gig every week

Anyway nobodys forcing you to comment :lol:

If you're going to a class where someone lives there'll be quite a high chance of seeing them... because that's where they live 0_0

Is that because of shared interests?

Nope. If I went into all of the Starbucks on King's Road I'm sure I would find someone I know:tongue:
