nyc > my neighbor

there is an old man neighbor i walk by sometimes that margot loves to say hi to. we met bc he gave me a bunch of dog treats from his dead dog. we talk a few times a week usually and recently i revealed that i was a single grown up lady & not someone living with my family and he tried to get me to go on like.... a trip with him in his car? it made me feel pessimistic abt our relationship.


i don't really like that my only neighborhood pals are men. has this ever happened to you

my neighbor writes for the nyt as a finance journalist. another neighbor is a software engineer and the last is a married couple who work as film stylists. I talk to them all when I see them but never anyone in any other building on my street
