I just moved into new building and tenants are reserved. nobody says hi to anybody, but i feel weird just to pass by looking in front of myself/or carpet. if i say hi, should i get into some unnecessary crap? this whole new environment is weird..

Its just courtesy to say hi!you never know when you might need them to pick up your mail or whatever or visa versa.The thing is having a balance.The last thing you want is annoying neighbours who come over all the time.Just be brief!They probably arent saying hi to you because you arent saying hi to them.Be bold and make the first move.Its liberating.If they say nothing,then screw them and try another neighbour.See how you go.You could ask them a question like ,what day does the trash get taken out or what time does the mail arrive or where is the nearest gas station etc etc.........just as an ice breaker

Maybe you could start saying hi and smiling and they will do the same. Maybe they're shy. Maybe they will be happy to have somebody say hi! I would give it a try if I were you!

Just give it a bit of time. They'll warm up to you.
