Your neighbour, Jeff, has always seemed very interested in you. Whenever you run into him, he stops you for a minimum of 15 minutes to catch up on your life. He speaks enthusiastically, an excited glint in his eye as you tell him all about your regular, mundane life.
He always offers to help you with simple tasks, always gives you a shoulder to cry on when you need it. From the little you know about his marriage, you can tell that he and Shauna aren’t doing too well. It isn’t your place to pry.
When your washing machine breaks, you know just who to call. He’s always telling you to get in touch if you need something. Before you know it, he’s in your house, taking a look at it for you. “Looks pretty busted up,” He says with a chuckle. “How’d ya manage that?”
