Walking home from a run this morning, a little later than usual… I passed several neighbors.
Every time, I said good morning, figuratively tipped a hat, or at some level tried to make eye contact and smile.
None of them even looked up. Not one. Almost like they were afraid of me or angry.
Except 2 ladies wearing Middle Eastern headwear who waved at me and said good morning with huge open and warm smiles.
I know this is anecdotal. Not scientific.
But are Americans unfriendly?
