Sounds like kids. When they're young they run to the door to love you in the threshold and are wary of strangers. Upon reaching teenage years you come home and they just stare at you like you're the weirdest thing on earth. Or they ask when dinner's ready, ignorant of the fact you're wet, tired and in a bad mood.
