Do you get along with your neighbors?

[MrDawn]

Are you on good terms with your neighbors? Why or why not?

I live in an apartment building and I never see my neighbours except for when we occasionally pass in the hall. The most interaction I have with them is holding a door open for each other. I don't know if there's a high turnover rate but I don't see the same people more than a few times. The one exception is my neighbour across the hall, who have lived there as long as I have. They are an older married couple, late 50's maybe? We've never introduced ourselves so I don't even know their names but we exchange pleasantries if we pass in the hall and he commented on my vehicle when I first bought it a couple of years ago. One Christmas when I was out of town for a week, they were kind enough to hold a package that had been left in front of my door so that it wouldn't get stolen before I returned.

I'm an introvert who would actually rather not meet people, so having little to no interaction with my neighbours suits me just fine.

my neighbors are nice people. he's helped in times of need (my snowblower ran out of gas one winter) he came through. we started off kind of rocky, but through the years (eighteen years total) he's been alright.

I'm a very outgoing person who would like to meet good people, so I have a bit of interaction with my neighbours daily.

Yes, I am on very good terms with neighbors. We often help each other. We also often share small treats/gifts. Our neighbors are very good, often taking time to just chat together.

 

[misha]

Yes but not that much when ever there is a need i do help them

It's acceptable that you don't engage much with your apartment building neighbors. Many people have hectic schedules and may not have much opportunity to socialize with others.

That's fantastic news! Your apartment complex appears to offer a supportive and welcoming community. Building great relationships with your neighbors can help you create a sense of belonging and safety in your living area.

Actually not an apartment, but an ordinary residential environment. LOL

[Stardom22]

Thats good its better to be neutral

 

[Shortie]

I would definitely say that I get on with my neighbors. Some of them tend to keep themselves to themselves much like I do even though we all know each other and it is quite a tight-knit community in this neighborhood. We look out for one another and we support each other when needed.

 

[misha]

Of course my neighbours are nice people to me

Same here

 

[Stardom22]

I find it more conveniently to related with the neighbours so well

I'm currently listening to my bad neighbour have a huge angry fit over birdpoop on their deck.

I have wonderful neighbours all around me except the one whose driveway is along one side of my house. They made it difficult from day one of us moving into this house 8 years ago. Our house and garden have a fence right around that has stood for many years prior to us buying this house and this fence is that neighbours biggest hate. We have no idea why as the fence itself is a foot over on our property because the previous neighbour wanted to make sure she wouldn't destroy it. She told me the previous owner had put it up to stop her and her family from going on his property. She told me she had cut down his grapevine he had growing against the house because of the birds. And that her son would pick his tomatoes. So of course the previous owner would put a fence up. She does not see boundaries or respect of another person's property.

Since moving here our fence has slowly been vandalized by her and her son. She's 84 and he's 57. In the spring as it is now, she will get angry at us feeding the bees with flowers in our front garden, so she has bern seen by both us and our other neighbours picking them.

I'm a bird and wildlife lover so of course i have bird feeders all about my 200plus foot lot. Today, those birds have driven her into a fit. Currently she has her radio on high to a religious channel, while she and her son attempt to scare the birds from my backgarden. It's not working. But wow are they ridiculous.

We've had to put a lock on our fence gates to stop them from entering our garden when we are out.

Honestly, i wish i could share the racket going on right now from them... absolutely ridiculous.

Anyway, the rest of my neighbours we get together for bonfires and drinks, or just to chat, or to help each other out. It's wonderful... sadly just this other neighbour makes it difficult to live here sometimes. I'm hoping age will kill her soon and her son will have to move to the USA to live with his brother (they are a famous NHL hockey family, so very rich but absolute trailer trash to live next to).

 

[AUFred]

we tolerate each other mostly.

 

[pjbleek]

we tolerate each other mostly.

toleration in moderation

 

[Mystic]

Lol tolerance is definitely me tonight. I feel like their radio is right beside me. But it's not suicidal country music so I'll survive. Hahahaha

The last set of persons that I would want to have any issues with are my neighbors. These are people that I would see and relate with on a daily basis. Why create tension between us? I relate very well with my neighbors.
