According to the woman, why is it important to get along with our neighbors?
M: Well, in an ideal world, I guess we would all get along with our neighbors, wouldn’t we?
W: Right, right. We hope so.
M: But why is it important to have a good relationship with them?
W: Well, you know, your home is your sanctuary. And how you get along with your neighbors really plays a large part in your health, wellbeing and happiness, because you know, your neighbors really kind of make your home. And so it’s important at least to establish a good, cordial, or at least polite relationship with your neighbors.
M: How do we establish that? When you move into a neighborhood, right, should you reach out to the neighbors or should they be reaching out to you?
W: I think it could work either way. I mean, certainly, if they don’t reach out to you, don’t assume that they are being rude or unfriendly. They just might be holding back because they think you are too busy — unpacking and settling in. So if they don’t make that first step, you know, after a few days, go ahead and introduce yourself, because I think once you are on a first name basis with your neighbors, it makes that much easier to prevent problems later on, or maybe call on them for a favor down the road like if you are on a vacation and you need them to water your plants and pick up your mail. It’s much easier when you know them personally.
M: Yeah, neighbors can be helpful, but of course they can also be annoying. Our neighbor plays music, really really loudly. He’s three houses down, and it’s extremely loud from early in the morning to late at night. What do we do to ask him to not play music so loudly?
W: Loud music is one of those top complaints, and I think you know for most reasons.., people, they probably aren’t even aware that they are causing problems for their neighbors. And I think if you bring it up to your neighbors’ attention they will be more than happy to fix it. But you can take that, you know it’s-not-you, it’s-me approach. You could say something like, you know, I kind of, I’m really a light-sniff sleeper or I suffer from migraines. Can you help me out by, you know, turning down the music during those evening hours or the early morning, or come up with a compromise that works for both of you, a resolution that works for both of you.
M: Don’t just call the police, right? Which a lot of people do. So that’s a common complaint: loud music, but also sometimes we can have smells and other things that assault our senses as in the case of another person we talked to on the street...
