Not too good. I used to love getting to know neighbors before as a bachelor but married neighbors always used me as cover up for their side chicks even borrowed my car for family outing. No complaints nor hard feelings from me anyway.

Recently a neighbor of mine approached me to asked me that we’ve walked past each other like 4 times and I didn’t even say hi and he tried greeting me I didn’t even look there... I gave him chop knuckle & I just told him no problem at all oo say sometimes I dey forget to greet people lol..

Gather here if you are guilty of calling all the men around your area ga mi, chief or chairman...

The house I lived during my service year, all my neighbors call me oga Copper, even 2 years after my NYSC, cause I lived their for 2 years after my NYSC. I leave for work as early as 6am and come back between 6 or 7pm, then I travel for weekend on Friday come back on Monday evening, My family is based in Minna while I served in Abuja, I rearly had time to relate morover i love my privacy..

6 years after, though I stay in a different compound around the neighborhood now, when we see, my old neighbors still call me oga Copper and their children call me uncle Copper, wallahi I don't know them by their names till date, I call the women 'ma's' and the men 'Boss' for 2 years I lived there I never had single problem with any of the neighbors even the landlady loved and respects me.

Same applies to my new compound, I always mind my business and don't poke nose in what ever they do in the neighborhood. they respects me and i reciprocate too.

I served in Abuja and also work in Abuja nown

if you live in a responsible compound, you will understand the value of knowing people.

I registered my neighbor as a supplier in the company I worked and after 1 month he won a bid to supply over 120 UPS battery 150kw solar panels for our green project.

there was a time money was found in an ikoyi osborne twin building,3 past governors lives there , former NSA, Business men all live in the same compound .

I think it largely depends on the neighbourhood you live in.

****************
I've been in my current place for over a year, and I only know one neighbour by name and face.

And that's because both of us share a gen house, and in the first month when I moved in, her light was on my meter.

**********
I'm sure I have about 6/7 other neighbours, but I don't even know their faces, let alone names.

********
But in my previous place, we were all neighbourly... 5 blocks of houses occupied by young people.

When we were growing up as kids, we knew other kids not just in our street, but the area. Everyone knew everyone's house, siblings and parents. Today, my children don't even know the name of their neighbours let alone play with them. We think it's a sign of civilization and mind your business, but it shows how far apart we have grown and how we are falling as a society

I just realized I don't know the names of all the neighbors I have lived with.
I don't even know my neighbours, if I see them outside I won't even know and there's a possibility they won't even know me too. It's going to be a month since I moved in.

False. These days, people are doing business with someone who can deliver a good and perfect job.

Go digital and leverage on referrals. Depending on neighbors for imaginary contracts is entitlement mentality, the surest way to poverty. If you're good, you're good. Your job will speak for you.

Your neighbor can also get the same or even better contract by simply building a website or posting an ad on Nairaland/Twitter.

The point is, we can advise friendliness for the sake of being friendly.

That’s women for you boss..

Its pathetic..

From my experience, I’ve got to know that if you can always be on your own, you’ll hardly be having problems. Only people who are real, true to themselves have such a lifestyle.. Many people knows this. People will always respect you and wanna make you their friends once they know how reserved / real you’re..

Once people discovered that you’re the type that doesn’t bother people, then they’ll wanna make you a pal cuz, humans naturally don’t like being bothered!

Few years ago, a guy asked me my name and I simply told him I’ve forgotten that it’s been a long time people call me by my name that he should just call me by nick..

There’s one movie I watched once upon a time, it’s titled Death Note ( It’s a book) .. It’s about one killer guy - if he wants to kill anyone, all he gotta do is to write the name for the book and how he wants them dead.. ( Now ever since I watched the movie, I’ve been more careful about who knows my real name and who doesn’t..)

Humans radiates bad energetic a lot, expecially this part of the world that’s why it’s less people, less bullsheet..
