Aisle-seat people often value freedom and movement .
-
You don’t like feeling blocked in.
-
You may be more social, more alert to what’s happening, or simply more practical.
-
Sometimes it reflects restlessness: you’re ready to get up, adjust, or change plans.
Choosing a seat next to someone vs. alone
When there are plenty of free seats, this can be especially revealing.
-
Choosing an empty pair/space: you’re protecting your boundaries, recovering energy, or simply avoiding small talk.
-
Sitting near others (without needing to): you may be more socially open, community-minded, or comforted by proximity.
Standing instead of sitting
Standing can suggest flexibility and “on-the-go” energy —or just practicality.
-
You may dislike committing to a spot, prefer being ready to move, or feel impatient.
-
You might be considerate (leaving seats for others) or used to crowded transit.
-
Sometimes it’s sensory: sitting feels cramped, or you want fresh air near an open window/door.
