[quote=Anonymous] I’m a new Englander originally and find DC to be very unfriendly and unwelcoming and weird. I also greet strangers who look startled and embarrassed then say “good morning” (sometimes). Most just run around with ear buds and ignore. This behavior would be considered bizarre and suspect in New England. Even close neighbors here are “hi and bye” neighbors after years in the same home! Most don’t even know each others’ names. Weird adults indeed. [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I talk to strangers and smile at people... who think I'm weird[/quote] Apparently this sort of behavior isn’t allowed in the dc metro area. You are supposed to avoid eye contact and remain silent. So weird. My kid goes to school in the south and it’s striking how friendly people are. [/quote][/quote]
