[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think what you did is fine and don't be self-conscious about it.  I do think there are "upper class" folk who do things differently from the rest of us, but they are old money, i.e., the Kennedys and Vanderbilts, NOT the Trumps.  I'm guessing most people in a wealthy gated community are NOT old money, real old money live in sprawling estates and don't have neighbors (except in a city).  Your NF's neighbors are new money and and IMO not so different from "middle class" from which many of them probably came.  Having said that, I do think that some nouveau riche like to put on airs and would be snotty if you approached them the "wrong way," whatever that is.  My parents recently moved from a middle class neighborhood to a very affluent one and I've noticed some of our new neighbors are snobbish and not friendly.  I think it's hilarious because for the life of me, I don't see how they are better than us, but they feel very confident that they are!  But some neighbors are really nice and have invited us over, it just depends on the person.  [/quote]
