Is it normal that i like to walk through the rain?

I like to walk in the rain (small, not pouring rain) in a too-small bright red waterproof jacket.
I like to listen to the sound of rain hitting the hood of my jacket and somehow the emptiness and the pattering sound in the street calms me. Is it normal to like getting rained on and not using an umbrella?

  • Everybody does. The sound of rain on things lulls all mammals. It mimics heartbeats they felt while in the womb. It's the reason rain on your roof puts you to sleep easily at night.

    You kind of have to love the rain if you live in England like me. Otherwise you could get pretty depressed haha

    Never got why people hate the rain so much. It's so beautiful and relaxing. I'll take a cool day in the rain over a hot sunny day any time.

    I hate rain. I love heat and sunny weather and arid deserts.

    Yes, especially in winding neighborhoods with tall trees and a hidden bamboo creek. It makes me feel like I'm in a rainforest.

    • Nobody owns an umbrella in real life.

        I do but it's old and I don't know where it is. I live in Las Vegas so I rarely need an umbrella. I really miss Texas, Louisiana and Florida.

            Hot and dry most of the time. Even if I don't get sunburned the conditions turn my face red when I go ouside. When it's not hot it's still too dry for my taste. I get nosebleeds too during the winter and allergy seasons. I do, however, love monsoon season at the end of summer when it rains and gets a little humid.

            I don't care what these desert rats think the constant humidity in the Deep South is very sensual to me and I have more energy. Also I feel the the high humidity is better for my skin because it feels softer and plumper and causes less wrinkles.

            I basically just moved here after am ugly divorce to be closer to my folks. But at least there's always stuff to do and very good shopping on the plus side of this place. I make a point to stay out of the sun, drink lots of water, and moisturize.

      I'm right there with you. There's just this beautiful melancholy atmosphere that rain creates. I don't know why but it makes the world look interesting.
