i never say hi first

are you that socially inept that simply saying hi is a challenge?

>For example, if you live in an apartment and you go by your neighbor on the staircase, are you supposed to say hi?

It's a pretty common thing to do, yes

>What if you've already said hi to them because you went by them before?

Unless you meet them twice in the space of a couple of minutes I think you should greet them every time

I think that's pretty fucking obvious anon

Just say hi. You'll feel better. And it's a good stepping stone to getting over that obvious social anxiety you have. Baby steps, man.

That probably depends a lot on where you're living. But as long as it's neighbors or people at your school or job then I can't really think of that many situations where saying hi would be strange.
Even if you meet someone twice you can just say "oh hi again".

What would be an appropriate way to say hi when meeting someone you don't know well for the second time in the same day?
Let's say that person is a classmate or a neighbor that you either never talked to or only talked to once?

You only say hi after youve done fucking themm

If I don't feel like saying hi, or if I said hi to someone already and I run into them an hour later or something, I just give them (what I hope is) a friendly smile. not a toothpaste-ad smile, but enough of a smile that it reaches your eyes. usually they'll smile back and they may say hi, in which case you say hi back. if they look at you all stony-faced, just act as if they'd smiled back anyway. kindness and manners cost nothing.
