I always try to stay cool with the neighbors. If for no other reason than hoping for the courtesy of a walk-by before they call the cops for a noise complaint. That's why I am nice to my neighbors as well 
There's a lot of loud noises coming from Row's house

Went to visit my neighbor and told him I moved here in 2004. He said he has lived there for 20 years and doesn't know anybody. 
It's very sad..and trust me it's a national phenomena. People don't even trust or know their neighbors. I noticed this. People are very antisocial and I could not understand for the life of me why that is..I'm coming from a place in my children years where I pretty much knew the entire village, even though I was like 14. I know 3 neighbors around me, I talk to them time to time about everything, another house next to me just got emptied the house on sale, and another just moved in, but they aren't even try to be friendly, I don't know why, I always say "hi" every time I see one of them, they never reply. It's been going on for 6 years. 
I have attempted to be more friendly with my neighbors...they avoid me, my boys. I have an older couple..as in 60's, that give my boy stink eye every time they see him..they don't like his long hair, and have actually told another neighbor that. They judge him by his hair and have never spoken to him... he's actually a nice kid. We are not a part of the dominant religion and we are shunned...I can't make them want to talk to me. I tried for years, just bagged it and smile and nod at them now. And when I do my fires like last night...just gives them another reason to avoid us. |

You can pick your friends, but you can't pick your neighbors.
For security purposes, it is a good idea to know them causally and be polite if possible. I have noticed that people are like clans or tribes, they have their little circle of friends and they don't often let outsiders in. The only thing you can do is create your own little circle. Start with one friend that you have something in common with, and go from there. If you can't find one good friend, sometimes family is good.... if you get along with your family that is. If none of this works, find friends on the Internet with common interests. It is so hard to find people who are compatible and share common interests and ideas. We are social creatures, people need people. |

I am thankful for all the social and antisocial who have contributed to this thread; Especially those who were with us in spirit but who just too antisocial to contribute.
