I moved into my house about 7 months ago, but the neighbours are the type that never say hello unless i do first. I just say it out of politeness, i would feel really awkward if i saw them and ignored them, but they don't seem to have a problem doing it to me. Take the other day for example. I was on the street unloading my car and the woman from next door just walked right past behind me and didn't even acknowledge me at all. She was about 6feet away when she walked past. I didn't notice her until i saw her opening her front door.

Her relative is the same. I've said hello to him in the past, but he did the same thing. Walked right past without saying nothing. On all accounts, it's usually when i'm unloading the car or too busy to realise someone is walking down the street. Obviously if i saw them i would say hi, and i always get a "Hi" back but wth is their problem? Ignorant bar stewards. Anyone else understand why they would be like this?

I've got a feeling they just don't like us for whatever reason. I have absolutely no idea why though. I've not done a single bad thing since moving in. They're lazy, ruff, drink and smoke weed all night. Both in their 40's.
 
Be happy as long as they are quiet. It doesn't really sound like they are the sort of people you want to be friends with so I would just ignore it and get on with life. Some people just keep themselves to themselves.
 
My god, get a grip. I thought your post was going to be about your neighbors throwing mad parties, driving over your lawn or selling drugs from their house. Maybe they're just a quiet family, or a bit shy, or not very good around people. Get over yourself! :)
 
Jeez, what a thing to get your panties bunched over.

And why "ignorant"? Shouldn't it be "impolite" or "unfriendly"?
 
atleast you get a hi back, ive said hello before and got ignored lol.. im pretty sure they could hear me.. i just think they never liked me much..

but he now says hi, mainly because his lass knocked on our door at 3am drunk wanting help to get in the house. she still continues to ignore me but probably because of what happened..

+1, some people like to keep themselves to themselves. Ever thought that maybe they don't want to be frieds with you OP?
 
OP, I think the real question is : what have you done to make these neghbours hate you so much? They seem like good, upstanding members of the community so you must have done something pretty un-neighbourly to cause this kind of resentment.

Tell us what you did you monster! :mad:
 
wow. maybe they just don't want to say hi? And you sound pretty judgemental, get over yourself.

also, if they say it once, then they have to keep saying it. Have yo useen mickey flanagan's stand up routine on this?

I can understand people wanting to keep themselves to themselves, but come on! A simple hello as you walk past me in the street? I think i've come to terms that they just don't want to know us, talk to us, have nothing to say or whatever. I just wish i could be so stone faced as them so it didn't bother me as much.

For the record, they let their dog loose over our and next doors garden, it craps everywhere, it's not a small dog either (German shepard), their neighbours regularly block our driveway off, and i think they're growing/selling weed as i keep getting whiffs of it throughout the day. So no, i'm not a judgemental snob at all.
 
Maybe they are just quite people and tend to keep them selves to them selves. If all they do is smoke weed all day long, maybe they are abit paranoid and dont want unwanted attention.
 
Did you say "hi" in an abrupt fashion or didn't smile when you said it? It's likely that the way you conducted yourself has led them to think you're not really genuine with your greetings. If I were you I'd apologise and hope they have it in their hearts to forgive you.
