However, a recent development has made her to reconsider her decision. Her neighbour's wife had given birth, and other neighbours visited to see the newborn.

The lady found herself torn between extending goodwill and maintaining her distance.

She wondered whether to take the bold step and visit her neighbour or refrain from doing so, fearing embarrassment.

In her words:

"I have a neighbour I haven't exchanged greetings with for over 5 years. At first, I used to greet warmly but most times, they would ignore me or respond coldly. I eventually stopped. Now something happened. The wife just gave birth on Saturday.

"Other neighbours have gone to congratulate them but I'm here wondering if I should go too. Part of me wants to be the bigger person, but another part fears they might snub me or embarrass me in front of others. Should I take the bold step and visit? Or just stay my lane."
