First, a confession: When my parents sent me off to brush my teeth at 7 or 8 years old, I would sometimes run the water in the sink, rub a dab of toothpaste on my front teeth, and stall long enough to make it seem like I had brushed.

There are lots of reasons you may not be on a first-name basis with your neighbors. Maybe you moved recently (or you moved at any time in the last four years, when people were understandably a bit more standoffish). Or maybe you just have a hard time initiating contact with people under any circumstances. I’ve lived in my current home for 11 years, and have very few connections to show for it. It’s not that I don’t want to know my neighbors; I’m just excellent at awkwardly keeping to myself.
