This. Who cares. Say hi if you see them and feel like, or don’t. How much or if they like you shouldn’t really matter to you. As long as they aren’t doing bothering you

They are probably tired of short timers moving in and out next door to them.

Just give it time. Maybe they have an issue with the landlord or there was some drama with the previous neighbors. I'm not saying they're acting appropriately, but you never know what's going on for other people. Be normal and nice and they'll probably soften over time, and if they don't they probably aren't people you want to hang with anyway.

OP, we have neighbors like this. I honestly do not know what we’ve done to offend them but they hate us.

I would just remain cordial. Maybe they are going through a rough time. A quick smile and wave. It’s zero effort.

It's a short-term rental. What do you care what the neighbors think? I've lived in my apartment for like 8 or 9 years and have never met any of my neighbors.

1 or 2. Def not 3. Preferably just ignore them. Stop trying.

Just moved into a house for a short-term rental. Never talked to or interacted with the next-door neighbor, yet they (couple) seem to hate us.

We wave, they look away. I try to introduce myself and they are super curt - almost acting disgusted - and walk away. When they're talking to other neighbors and I walk up, they completely ignore my presence and won't look in my direction.

Do I:

1) Not care and move on with my life
2) Act super nice - kill them with kindness
3) Just ask them: 'hey, have we done something to offend you at some point in the last few weeks?'

Something else?
