Why do they think respect should be given and not reciprocated?
And even go as far to tell me that if a certain person doesn't receive. It will make him mad.
I just asked him , if he felt that way. Then way didn't he come to me. He just shrugged his shoulders.
Now mind you, he was given over $1.5 million in assets about two years ago. Not inherited. All he had to do was marry the landowners daughter.
Folks, respect is a two way street. From this landowner that know as well. My wife and i didn't receive a call, flowers or even a card from him or the daughter and son inlaw. When our daughter passed away. So, with that said. I don't go out of my way to speak or wave.

What's your honest opinion?

Theres different kinds of respect...and none if them are reciprocal

sounds like the person youre referring to is a bit self-entitled. .

That's how I take. Was he warning me? Hope not. I don't want trouble. But, if it comes calling. Then all options are viable. I'm always nice until I'm not.
Sarge

Common courtesy and common sense are dying out. Unfortunately at a faster pace with each passing day.......

I think you’re bitter that he got an easy way to $1.5 million.

You must be in that age group to say that. Anyone would be thrilled to have been given that. But, as you normally do. You missed the point. RESPECT is a two way street.
At my age. I do not owe anyone nothing nor do i have to prove anything to anyone.
So, if he wants to have his panties in a wad. So be it. Don't go looking for trouble and when finds you. Don't cry about.
A few things about us old guys. We don't look or want trouble. But be warned. Old veterans don't fight fair and we don't care. Simply said.

I'm not catching what your relationship is with this 35 year old man, but unless it's important, why deal with him at all. Just forget he exists.

Keith

You sure seem upset about something, enough to make a vague post here complaining about a random age group. As a 35 year old, I hope you find happiness.

Neighbor. Hard to avoid.

Is he the kind to keep nudging the fence/property lines over on YOUR side?

I'm gòod. Folks need to mind their own business , because i don't look for trouble. So, it's best others don't as well.
Don't tell what me what i should be doing because your( the young man) butt hurt. I've earned my right to live in peace.
Sarge

Don't give him any space in your head. As long as he stays off your property and doesn't make trouble for you, ignore him. You don't have to like your neighbors. Just forget he's there. What he does on his property is no real business of yours and vice versa.

What do you have to interact with him on?

Keith

there are self absorbed and narcosistic people of every age.

they have only thought for what is for them and everything else is invisible.

toss out that people under 35 probably send less than 5 pieces of mail a year that aren't amazon returns

the things people used to do now just don't get done , heck they probably never would have if the wife didn't buy the card and put the stamp on it in many relationships.

social norms are rapidly changing

I missed the point because you aren’t clear what you’re talking about in your first comment. You did make it clear that the guy has, but didn’t earn $1.5 million.

That’s all you were clear about.

The 2nd comment you made is also a very common “talk” that you do and it doesn’t even correlate well to your first comment.

I’ve said it before about you, you’re looking for a fight.

Yep, when he feels butt hurt. Both the former land owner( father in law) and new property owner(son in law).
I'm not materialistic like they are. I want to live out my life with my wife, smoke my cigars, drink my coffee with a little whiskey and shoot my guns. And operate my ADC business and be left alone. Pretty freaking simple in my book.
Sarge

JP. Then it's best to leave me alone. You think!

You sure are a drama queen for some one that wants to be left alone. Always complaining about someone else.

Im 65 and see no merit to what you say. Saying he should marry her for money? You seem to always be harping about someone or something . I think you arent a people person. I wish you well . You asked for opinions then get mad when people offer them and tell them to leave you alone . Hmm... Why post then?

Respect is earned just maybe he doesn't think it has been earned.
Sounds like none of your business to me.

It sounds like you are very angry about your daughter’s death which is normal. It is one of the stages in resolving grief. They are normally in this older - denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Some stages may occur at the same time or overlap each other or never happen at all. But a person will experience at least most of them. As far as your initial comment, I don’t quite understand it including what the person did to you or if you angry about him not recognizing your daughter’s death or something else.
