Come to think of it, i don't even know their names. Hahaha. I just talk with my landlady, say good morning every now and then, and that's it. Not that I am cautious but i have no idea about how they think about me, so i do the same. I just mind my own business and expect them to it too. But i can easily befriend somebody if i like him/her.

I hardly know my neighbors except in passing. I had a yard sale not too long ago and met a couple of my neighbors that day, but I really don't remember any of their names or anything.
You'd think living in an apartment you'd get to know your neighbors, but I think people in apartments are actually less likely to talk to their neighbors then those who live in houses in an actual neighborhood.

i am for sure not nosey, but i am pretty friend with those people who live near me. we talk about our families, and when someone needs something they can come to me. the lady wo lives next door to me will call me to help her when she is ill. I think thats the best way to be with those you live next door too or close too. at least for me

we have a variety of neighbours.....on one side of our house we have neighbours who we have drinks with but on the other side we avoid because they are strange people so we just say hi and bye to them

I don't know much about my neighbors. As everyday we go to work in the morning. And when we are home, we just close the door and therefore we hardly to see our neighbors. If we occasionally see each other, we will nod the head and say hi and that's all. This is why we are not familiar with each other.
I love China

I live in a retirement center so have almost a hundred neighbors and I at least say hi to all whom I meet, some I am friends with and will have fairly long conversations but I never snoop.if someone wants to open up fine but I will not pry but if someone needs an understanding ear I am available and will not repeat anything that is said to me. it just keeps me sane and happy, that and my mylotting. he he

Hi ndubose, I live in a small apt building which has only about 15 units and everyone petty much stay to themselves but if someone is in need we are all there to do what we can. Also, we know who lives here and who doesn't and watch watch out for each other that way as well.
Have a wonderful evening

ahhh i love this topic..
i am the neighbor that used to say hi and be polite but now is just really rude to my neighbors. My neighbors are the crazy ones that meddle into everything..my family barley even talked to them and they started saying stuff about us to the other neighbors around my area. seriously? I was shocked they would spy on me in my window and would tell my parents what i was doing. finally my parents were like wtf?!?! she old enough leave her the f alone we dont want to know everything she does. which is completely true why would people be peeping on me creepy...if your this kinda of neighbor to whomever else reading this then stop! ha :)
have a nice day, and happy mylotting
