No They Didn't: Part I

Now, I know I’m not the only one that has experienced the following situation. You’re walking, minding your own business, when you notice someone else walking in the opposite direction towards you. As ya'll start to get closer, you glance over at the person, make eye contact, and then politely say "Hi." What happens next is something that just ticks you off. The person, who makes eye contact with you, does either or all of the following:
1. Doesn't say "Hi"
2. Quickly turns their head in the opposite direction of you or down or
3. Looks you dead in the face without saying anything to you.

WTF! I don't know about ya'll but I hate when this happens and it happens all too often. Now, I no I’m not looking at them mean or anything, because I say "Hi" with a smile (and I have a nice smile might I add), but I don’t know, maybe the thought of a 6'3" black man saying "Hi" is threatening to some people. Sad thing is, it's not just white people that don't say "Hi" but black people too. Usually it's women but still, if someone is politely saying "Hi" to you, how hard is it to say something back, or at least smile? Just a couple of minutes ago, I was in this exact situation when I said "Hi" to a co-worker, and they said nothing back, just put their head down and walked on by me as if I didn't even exist. I was like "No this chick didn't..." Ok, now I can understand that sometimes, people talk softly, but come on ya'll. I know I’m not in this alone. On the real, I just feel like slapping the next person that does that to me, but that's not my style.
