How to greet people as old as me

We moved to a new home. I meet a lot of people my age in the hallway. I'm 28 and when I meet someone who is also 28, I say hello. Shouldn't I say hello normally? Good morning to me so stupid. That we're not that old yet.

Answer :

By touching - in ordinary "contact" - you express a closer relationship to the person. And you probably don't have one - so yelling is fine. Even mutually unknown children (-teens) automatically touch each other. Not adults anymore. ;-)
