Is it appropriate to talk to my neighbor about their attitude even if she outranks me?

I live off base in an apartment. Recently we had a new couple move into my building. I’ve heard multiple complains from my roommate and other neighbors that they are rude to everyone. Greetings are met with eye rolls and once the Sgt responded to another, “why are you talking to me?” Typically, I wouldn’t care as it’s not my business but increasingly I’m hearing that even passing by them in the breeze way more like a nervous standoff. Should I try addressing this with them? Or just go straight to my landlord?

Sadly, if they are breaking no rules established by the apartment complex, then going to your landlord is kind of moot. Otherwise, I would just simply ignore them and continue on with your life.

Khyle don't cause yourself any problems. Some people are just assholes and there is nothing you can do or say to change it. Ignore them.

In my view, SPC (Join to see), people are people and each person has his or own way of living their life... Sad that this new couple is not friendly and are even caustic... There is something behind their facade that makes them act that way... I would counter the general feeling of others in your apartment complex and when you walk by this couple, smile and simply say "good morning" or "good afternoon" or whatever you wish to say! ...but keep it short and don't stop and hold your head high... That way, it is you who are being friendly... They may not acknowledge you for a long time, but after a while, perhaps they will smile at you and say "Hi"... It is your choice Khyle...
