How do you make friends with your neighbors?

13 comments

1. Just generate a conversation when you see them outside…but if your neighbors are like me, you’ve got no chance of building a friendship. I’ll be courteous, quick greeting and then quickly go about my business.

2. Often, having kids in the same school is a good way. But if you don’t, just start small talk with them and see if they answer.

   An other good way is to bring them a cake and propose to see each other later in the week (that way they have a way out and won’t feel forced).

3. Make excess food and give it to them.

4. Our neighbors cat started hanging out at our house

5. I don’t know, I personally made friends with my neighbor because he also played Clash royale on bluestacks, and because of that we got common theme to speak about

6. Would you settle for tips on how to make enemies with them? I think I have some of those

7. Smile and let them make friends with you.

8. If they sale something, give them a hand and buy it

9. I barely know any of mine. There really isn’t a sense of community anymore

10. When I see them I just walk over and talk to them.

11. Why would anyone want to?

12. People tend to learn to avoid the neighbours that *seek out* friendships with their neighbours.

13. Depending on where you live you could organize a block party. My neighborhood does that periodically – it takes one motivated person to hand out flyers.
