[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People come to dc to make something of themselves. As it’s been said before it’s Hollywood for ugly people. If you can’t do something for them they’re not interested in you and once you can’t help them anymore they are done with you. There are no real friends here. That’s where the rudeness is coming from. [/quote] Then there are those of us who have lived here for generations. We’re not rude — unless it’s in response to egregious rudeness. We have lifelong friends — which are not usually transactional, although we help each other as friends do. For the most part though, transients aren’t interested in us. Transients and some transplants tend to interact with other transients and transplants — and then vent about rudeness and loneliness and transactional relationships. You get what you give. [/quote] As someone that grew up here and then returned after grad school, I agree with this assessment.[/quote]
