Ladies, do some of you purposely avoid speaking to or even?

Question

acknowledge guy neigbors? The reason I'm asking is because I'm a guy, and where I'm from its extremely rude to walk directly pass someone (especially a neighbor) and not greet them. I don't mean break out into full conversation, I just mean acknowledge the presence of another human being. I"ve noticed that the women in my building that live with men, whether married or not do this to me. And there's no way to say this without sounding arrogant, but I'm a good-looking guy, so do you think they're doing it because they foolishly believe that I'd confuse common courtesy with flirtation? I'm in no ways atempting to charm or flirt with these women, I just want to greet them just like I greet the guys. Their husbands and boyfriends greet me, but they walk DIRECLTY pass me as if I'm invisable. My gf doesn't do that to their boyfriends, because she's mature enough to know that greeting the males are no different than greeting the females. Do any of you do this, or have a theory?

Answer 1

maybe they have jealousy issues???

who knows, it is rude!  but i have heard stories that some don't want their partners to think they are getting with the hot guy who waves!! LOL not sure if your hot but i'm sure your goodlooking and that's why!

maybe the girls who don't wave are attracted to you and wouldn't feel comfortable being nice in fear of their own self maybe they would be the ones who would try to take it another level..  and something i use a lot is "Don't put yourself in a sistuation where you COULD LED to cheating"

still either way it's still rude not to wave or nod or smile!

Answer 2

Why are you waiting for them to greet you first? Have you tried to say a Good Morning , Good day first?  A jealous spouse will stop a woman from chatting with the male neighbors.

Answer 3

It is very rude not to greet your neighbors as you pass them. But in possible explanation, I have had a lot of experience in offering mere common courtesy to a man, only for him to take it as something more, and follow me around badgering me for the date--or more--he felt I promised him when I said, "hi, how are you?"

So it's not so foolish on their parts. It's foolish on the parts of the men they have run into before, who are not as gentlemanly as yourself.

Answer 4

I do this.  I'm in a small building with only 8 apartments, have been there two years, and have never had any conversation with anyone living there.  And yes, there are a couple of hot guys who appear to be single.  I don't know why, I just don't want to bother with it.  I guess I think if I start talking to my neighbors, they will want to come over, and hang out, and I really value my privacy.

Answer 5

avoid rude people
