I am a chronic introvert. I don't mingle that much. I stays indoors . I goes out only in the evening to drink and smoke loud and comes back by 10pm and retired back to my room without speaking to anyone. Am I wicked or uncaring?

I once lived with a neighbor in PH who is a yahoo boy and a drug addict. Guy wanted to fight like 3 people in the compound. Even the landlord couldnt stop his excesses. Gave him quit notice after one year. Guy kukuma go. Guy was so toxic and irrational that he blamed a certain calm neighbor he was beefing for putting water in his generator, when the case was examined, it was obviously because of rain as he didn't cover his generator.
Very sick animal, most likely in a rehab now.

Not completely true. I have lived in different states in Nigeria, due to one thing or the other, like work, school, etc.

I can say what you just said depends on the personality type of your neighbour.

I have had comedians as neighbours. And I have also had monks as neighbours. If you understand what I mean.

Keep a healthy-social relationship with your neighbors but always draw a very THICK line when you sense danger ahead. Never allow any of your neighbours to understand you else sorry!

No matter what your neighbors is your first aid or saviour in time of emergency. Try to live amicably with them even if they are not friendly, to me God knows why he is closest to you as a neighbor.

I planted a tree in my compound you won't believe my neighbor cut it down not that it is even disturbing him or close to our boundary, when I confronted him lo and behold he told me he doesn't like trees close to houses.
Though I have been noticing him doing fetish things all around his house but still I still maintain my relationship with him. Now he is the one giving me water because he just dug borehole, so no matter what try to live amicably with them.

"Na condition dey make crayfish bend."
In the beginning it wasn't so. I remember growing up in Lagos as a boy, every neighbors' mom and Dad are my parents. When my parents are not around, I can boldly walk into the next-door-neighbor house and stay safe till my own mom returns.
During that brief stay, they have every right to assume responsibilities over me. They can beat, bathe, feed or send me on errands without my Parents complaining.
This is because my parents know most of their neighbors to the village and back; some, they work same line of trade: People they could vouch for and go to the station to effect their bail in the event of mistaken identity or crises!
The point where all these changed was the mixing of different cultures with different values - temporal sojourners mixing with permanent natives; mixing of oil with water leading to acrimony and discordant tones!
Now here we are, to avoid unnecessary tension and strifes, people simply mark their individual space/boundary and will never cross or allow anyone cross over it.
Peace of mind is a golden commodity.

JuanDeDios:
Yea. Unfriendly neighbours are not the problem. Troublesome neighbours are the problem. The ones that will park where they should not. Or get up and start praying loudly at 1.20am. Or throw things in front of your place. Neighbours from hell.

Vlibray:
Only a jobless person would conceive the thought that his/her neighbour is unfriendly.
I don't even know who live next door to my apartment 😅

Greenlandz:
I've always been like that o. Where I go to smoke is one of the most dangerous places in PortHarcourt yet the cultist there dread me because I'm always silent and mind my business. Even the ladies there gives me a lotta greenlight but I no dey look them at all. Though them sabi say I be corper wey be Yoruba. I don't want to change at all because once I doe,the respect go finish and me I no like ham at all.

AirBere:
I didn't read that correctly. You mean you planted a tree in your compound i.e your enclosed space yet another man aka neighbour came in and cut down your tree and you didn't do anything because you don't want to step on toes? Is that?

I mean, he cut down your tree Insisde your space and you did nothing. May be I read it wrong but can you elaborate pls?

The worst is that they will come as good friends leter they will rollout their evil plan against you, some will try to spoil the relationships between you and your love ones through gossip. My experience is that somebody want to bring confusion between me and my brother for him to gain something from my brother.
