I don’t necessarily hate my neighbors but they annoy the shit out of me. Generally I get along fine with my neighbors, I wave hello and smile. That’s it. I know some people make friends with their neighbors and have parties with them but the majority of neighbors that I have been around have been way out of my age group, have young children, or just never had anything in common with them. Lets discus a few of my struggles.
My first couple of apartments the neighbors all had young children and I was late teens early twenties and childless. So having a kid screaming at 8pm on a week night pissed me off and I don’t really want to talk to you when you have to go yell at your kid every 30 seconds.
The last apartment was full of elderly people, foreigners, and a few college students. I was very cordial to everyone but in the laundry room when you take up all the washers I get pissed off. And don’t think that my front door is closed that I still can’t hear you talking loudly in front of it with another neighbor chatting about how you think my boyfriend is a dick. Yeah that’s right you old shit I heard you, you were a dick and a noise neighbor, that’s why we never talked to you.
Where I currently reside everyone ignores everyone. Perfect for me, but you could be nice and shut the front gate and not leave and open invitation to thieves that are scoping out our apartment. Or slamming your front door to cause my whole apartment to shake * cough* upstairs neighbor *cough*.
What I am trying to say is just be courteous and don’t think some one is a dick just because they won’t talk with you for hours at a time. I have a life and places to go, so don’t stop me!
See you on the other side
