How to use "Run across" in context?
When I was younger, I would run across the street to my best friend's house to play Xbox. Now, I run across the street to the grocery store to get milk because my baby needs milk. However, I stopped running across the street to meet new people because I realized that I ran across the street to meet people too often and not enough time was actually spent talking to them.
It's easy to run across the street to someone we know, but it's also easy to run across the street to someone we don't know.
