Ever wonder about your neighbors' lives?

I have a neighbor who is a single guy, works many hours. He often is home after 7 pm, and I can sometimes see his T.V. on. I wonder what he's watching as well lol..Then when Im heading up to my room I can see the T.V. shut by 11 pm. I admire that. I dont see anyone coming typically like friends or women...are you ever curious about neighbors you dont really know?

I have as little interaction with my neighbors as possible, I do not want to know anything about them and I don't want them knowing about me. I just have this paranoia that some of them could be Thieves and if they know anything about me or when I am gone they might try to break in and steal stuff. Not that I really have much worth stealing but people will rip off nearly anything if given half the chance

@Punches But statistics wise Im sure they are good people. Yes we do see these people on tge news and it makes you think they must just be EVERYWHERE at any moment. I sometimes feel that too. But while we can be cautious, we dont want to be so careful that we miss out on people or life. (I read that by a great author..she said she tells people "Dont be too careful")

@Coralmist sometimes it does get kind of lonely because I just do not talk to anybody in real life except at work. When I first moved to my neighborhood in April of 2010 though I had some problems with a couple of the neighbors and just kind of decided at that point that I just didn't want nothing to do with nobody. I know it's not real healthy but I just cannot get past it

@Punches Maybe you can just say a couple things here or there to break the ice, if theres any new people? Or even with the ones you had issue with...🌺 I hate that feeling of being alone or so lonely. Maybe things have changed you never know🍀

@Coralmist there were a few months there when I was doing a lot of work on the outside of the house I live in. I talked to a couple of people a little bit then and people were telling me the house is looking a lot better because it used to look horrible so I just fixed up as much as I could best I could but anyways
