My neighborhood

I'll be straight here. I have not made contact with my neighbor. I do understand that you are supposed to be good friends with your neighbor, but I have not spoken to my neighbor...not at all. We do see each other sometimes, when we both get out or try to go in to our houses at the same time, but we just look at each other an just walk away. It feels extremely awkward when this happens. When there is a new neighbor moving in, I'll try to get a good relationship with them.
