Every time we go out anywhere, non-English speaking people always come up to me and need help with something (directions, translating street signs, etc). I figured it happened to everyone all the time but my friend is sitting here teasing me about it. She says even other people's pets who normally hate everyone love me. It's true though I'm not complaining - I love the interactions with so many amazing people. Like one time a guy from Nigeria was trying to order lunch in a cafeteria but couldn't articulate what he wanted. I happened to walk by and he sort of grabs my arm and asks for help. The waitress was getting pretty frustrated (it was really busy, as I recall). After that we dated for a few months! Another time a guy at a gas station was trying to put gas in his rental car. He spoke no English at all, but I had no trouble understanding him. It was awesome! There were at least a dozen other people around and some of them were closer to him. Please tell my friend this is normal!

i believe in energy and you probably omit good energy. believe it or not, i had a friend just like you!! (i didn't think there were 2 of you!! lol!!) everywhere we went together, guys would come to her and ask all sorts of questions. (the time, directions, didn't speak english and needed help etc.) so my other friend and i used to joke that it must her cologne (she used to where ETERNITY) and we needed to buy it by the truck load!! she was a very beautiful person; inside and out. people were drawn to her. she made a lot a friends and had some great boyfriends from these encounters she would have. it ain't common, but i would think you're probably a really nice person and somehow people sense that (it's that energy thing, baby!!!) stay as you are and you'll continue to have awesome experiences!

Some people have a natural affinity for languages, identifying languages based on accents etc and therefore have an easier time understanding what people whose first language is not English are trying to communicate.
But further to that, some people are just more aware, on a spiritual level, of the connection that we have to all other souls, human, animal etc. I believe that you are one of these people who have a special awareness (even on a subconscious, if not conscious) and connection to source energy in this way.
Normal, no, but it SHOULD be! I want to live in a world in which we are all aware of our connection to source energy!

Actually it is normal. I have the same thing. I can walk in any library in the country and people will come up and ask me where something is located.
Some of us have invisible tattoos on us saying "I can help."

Friend it is normal in a weird way. The only way you can understand so many languages is if you secretly study them. But helping others is quite normal.

It's very normal for people who speak multiple languages - I wish I could speak Spanish fluently.
Go with the stars. Your language could come in handy.

You must be a stone fox, with innocent eyes. You should be more carefull, you are bad guy bait. Listen to you friend, she IS jealous, but she also cares, and is not sure that SHE, would like to have your, errr, ummm, gift. With a gift like that, you should model, or entertain. It won't last forever.

This is not normal. This is special. Not everyone has such a quality, such a gifted attitude towards life and people. Way to go, lady!

It sounds like a wonderful gift to me. Maybe you can parlay it into a good job?

Its probably because you have a nice, friendly face. Or because you give eye contact and that can mean that you can help them.
