"I don't have time for people who aren't open to this"

Post Reply New Topic

This evening, I ran into some neighbors who were chatting and I went to say "Hello" which was fine at first until I let the cat out of the bag about having a disability and how I want to drive. I also mentioned what my goals are, which are moving closer to the city when. When one of my neighbors started talking to me about looking at affordable housing and perhaps doing a coop. He also started asking me whether I qualify for mobility. I told him that it was none of his business because we barely know each other. It is a hot button whenever anyone starts asking me personal questions about what kinds of special services I get just because I have a disability. I started to tell him that which led him to walk away and say the above. I said, "And I never will." He goes, "Yeah that's why I am leaving."

What's a good way to handle this because these kinds of situations just tick me off.

My friend told me not to worry about him and like last poster said, stay away. There are a couple of neighbors on the property that seem nice enough at first but as you get to know them, they under your skin.

If you've invited them to be there, why complain when they take you up on the invitation?

red_dog and green0star are right.
