I don't like my neighbors.
One of them wishes I would move
so that he can visit the others on our street.
The other is stuck up
and only associates with one color.
I can't stand to be in either of their homes.
...at least, not while they're in them.
Who am I?
This riddle has been solved.
These are the hints I would have provided, had they been necessary:
1.
I met someone just like me who lives at the other end of my street!
2.
I met someone across the street who appears to be royalty. Next time I see him, I'll have to check.
3.
I met a short individual (in passing) who said she was looking to get a promotion.
This is my first question ever on Stack Exchange! Hope this riddle is neither too easy nor too hard.
Good luck!
Answer
You are
The knight chess piece
I don't like my neighbors.
When you move, you won't be next to either.
One of them wishes I would move so that he can visit the others on our street.
The rook needs you out of the way to move along the back row.
The other is stuck up and only associates with one color.
The bishop moves diagonally so always stays on the same colour.
I can't stand to be in either of their homes. ...at least, not while they're in them.
You can't take your own pieces or have two pieces in one square.
Alternatively,
You are
The queen chess piece
