[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]typical bell curve of personalities in our bethesda neighborhood. saw the same distribution in Manhattan, Milwaukee, and Philly when we lived there too. never needed to call anyone snotty though! it's actually kind of a self-defining post OP. [/quote] Agree. My DC is at a W school and I find people to be very friendly. It was surprisingly easy to meet people despite my DC being a 9th grader. DC moved from a private school where people were friendly but perhaps a bit cliqueish. [/quote] Totally agreed. I encountered snobby people when I grew up in a typical midwestern middle-class suburb, and plenty of normal people. People are different everywhere. I think people move to Potomac/Bethesda/Chevy Chase/etc. and expect to meet nothing but Biffs and Buffys and their impression of the place gets colored by that expectation. We moved to Bethesda from a very egalitarian and diverse neighborhood in DC, and love our new neighbors and neighborhood. There may be some pretentious and unfriendly people, but guess what? I ignore them, and have plenty of normal, down-to-earth friends. My kids encounter entitled and spoiled kids, but that happens everywhere too...they have no problem finding kind and normal friends to hang with. OP may eventually meet some too, if she drops the attitude that her new neighborhood is full of snobs.[/quote] What neighborhood did you move from?[/quote]
