As I ponder about what kind of person am i? I was interrupted with the thought that somehow my neighbors became a part of me. There was a chance in my life that I became so rebellious because of what were my core and extended families heard from them. I wasn't heard, I wasn't notice and I wasn't justly convicted with my decisions because of my mischievous and gossiper neighbors. I only got 20% good neighbors... It's really hard to give your trust... What about you? what kind of neighbors do you have? Are they good to you...

There are a lot of us here in our subdivision but I am only comfortable with 4 families here an only trust 2 of these 4 families. That's how difficult finding good, genuine, trustworthy, unbiased, and trustworthy neighbors is. A lot of our neighbors are really rich while our family only earns in the average bracket that is why our neighbors' hobby is to make us feel small. I also don't like how our male neighbors gather together for a drink and intentionally raise their voices up and seem to exaggerate the things that we do. Like when we bought a new TV and then I hear this gossip that we bought a new TV so that we'd fit in the circle. I was so disgusted that even grown up men seem to brood gossip like high school cheerleaders.

Are you talking about your neighbors near your house or your neighbors only a few inches away from you? People are fond of talking about other people. They do it, or we do it with the reason I know not. But maybe, they do it because its fun. It is expected that people will also talk about you because you are also talking about them. It will only depend on how you would handle a situation like that if you found out that people are talking behind your back. They can always say things about you, let them say it. Its their problems anyway, not yours.

I'm talking not with these inch away people coz they don't matter. I'm talking with the people whose been witnessing my childhood until I become a grown up woman. Yet seems so close-minded for imperfections. In just a tick of a clock they just gossip as if they were not prone to commit mistakes.

I live out in the country. In the area where I live there are about 15 homes. My neighbors are from all over the country -- Florida, Colorado, California, Ohio, New Jersey, Connecticut, etc. They're all very different. (To live this far out of town on the road we have to travel to get to our properties, you could call all of us "strange".) Surprisingly, most of us get along great, and I get along with everyone...even the "drama queen" from NY, whom most don't like. My neighbors have helped me with my yardwork/landscaping, put in a garden, shoot rattlesnakes, watch my dogs when I'm on vacation or out of town, fix my ATV, build my driveway, etc. I would say my neighbors are very good to me, and I'm good to them...

I think I am one of the rare persons who usually lands up with good neighbours. The present one is just like a elder sister and spends most of her time in my house or I in hers. Just some days back I was out of station for around 4 days and it was as if I was missing something. I was enjoying my stay but still not a day passed when I did not miss her.
The day I was supposed to return he had thought I would be returning by 7 and gave me a call to find out why I had not and I told her that she was mistaken I was supposed to be home only at 10 (It really felt good to know that she missed me too).

I've only been in my house a little over a week, so haven't really met the neighbors. I have an older couple living on one side, that are quite and my landlord said they are good neighbors. The house on the other side of me is vacant, so no problem neighbors there lol. I've only met one neighbor, briefly, my daughter, granddaughter and I were goin on a walk when they visited me, and a neighbor around the corner was cleaning up after having a yard sale, and gave my 2 yr old granddaughter a stuffed bear (like new) because 'she is so cute' lol. I have never been one to 'visit' with the neighbors or actually become close friends, wherever I have lived.

Hello there babyEj..
well, our neighbors were fine except this neighbor which is close to my room window, since they were all amateurs(im even younger than them), sometimes at night they were partying or sometimes they were singin with their guitars late at night... and i cant sleep because of that.. we already reported them like 5 times to the police but still they dont stop, they're even making use of their house for hazing purposes, we just cant report it to the police coz we dont have enough evidebces..
Have a nice day!
