The way I see it respect as defined by a dictionary of the english language is
deep admiration for another based on their qualities, abilities or achievements. Not to be confused with just being a good neighbhor, friend, affable, decent human being towards another.
You may make life choices that I do not respect but I may still be your friend and neighbhor.
