I've always wondered from reading and re-reading the text...why is Blanche so afraid to meet Stanley? She's clearly a big bundle of nerves throughout that whole first scene, and before she even meets him, she's relieved to hear that he travels a lot. If I'm not mistaken, this is her first meeting with him, so she's not yet familiar with the fact that he is in fact a rather scary fellow.
Thoughts?
