My neighbour really can't seem to leave me alone when I need space it's kinda stressing me out... He knows when I leave, when I get home, and if I'm home later than usual he asks "still not home yet?". It's gotten to the point where I want to keep my curtains closed and my bedroom light off and stay away from the front of the house entirely because he seems to always be watching when he's not at work.

It's making me feel quite uncomfortable but I dunno how to approach him about it without being an ass. I just like him as a friend but I don't want things to turn sour just because I can't get any breathing space.

Is he antagonistic or does he just... like you?

I hate annoying neighbors. Won?t let you live in peace and like you have to deal with them everyday and there?s nothing you can do about it. I like my nicer neighbors but some REALLY go out of their way to bother me when I?m outside. Especially the kids. This one guy though, in his 40s, would be such an ass to me. He was always drunk and he?d always yell stupid things to me. He even threw water balloons at my brothers and wanted to throw on at me when I was riding my bike. There were also these kids at school who?d come to the neighborhood and harrass my sister.

Fortunately it's not aggression, he just likes me and he's been really forward about it in the past. I've told him I'm happy just being friends but it hasn't made a difference and I'm stuck in a really awkward position of wanting to be friends, but also feeling a bit harassed. I don't want to dislike him though! He was my childhood friend and we have quite a bit in common and chat over discord occasionally, but there seems to be a misunderstanding of personal space going on here that's making me dread leaving the house sometimes. I feel like I'm constantly being watched.

Neighbours are difficult, I feel you. If you don't know them on a personal level then the small talk can be pretty awkward when you bump into each other. Aggressive neighbours is another thing entirely though. I'm sorry you've had to put up with that, hopefully things are different now and you can go outside in peace!

Ah. Sorry you have to go through all of this. If it gets really bad, maybe ask him nicely to give you space. Even if you feel he may be too sensitive for it or react in a bad way. It?s not like you?re being mean or anything.

Some were really bad to the point were they?d start **** with me everytime they saw me. Eventually I?d snap at them (not physically) when I feel I couldn?t take it anymore. I know it?s harsh of me but choosing to ignore never worked for me, at home or at school. It?s best to let them know when they need to back off and they do now thankfully.

 

[piske]

everything tbh, one of those days ;v;

 

[honeyaura]

Creative block. I have to send in some designs this weekend to the sponsors, and the relationship is still pretty fresh. Oh, and they like phone calls lol (my weakness). I'm probably overthinking, but I'd rather be over-prepared than letting my guard down and being scared away. There are opportunities being thrown my way, and I am no longer hiding.

I can give it a shot, I think he'd be understanding about it since he's really down to earth and I don't think he means any harm. I'm just going to have to pick my words very carefully cause I don't want to upset lol. Thanks for the advice, I'm glad you've been able to tackle the problem of your aggressive neighbours by yourself. Sometimes a bit of resistance towards those types can make them feel intimidated, it's a good thing they got the message and haven't been a bother since. I can never understand confrontational people that go looking for trouble, especially among adults, but eh... could be a number of reasons and I feel like it's not my place to judge.

First hubby & I were supposed to go to eye doctors appointments tonight but somehow my mobility chair wasn't plugged in after the last time I used it so it's batteries were completely dead. (Unfortunately I am unable to plug my chair in myself so I have to depend on hubby or son doing it for me.) We had to reschedule after having these appointments scheduled for weeks. After that I came on here and I found out that someone I traded Amiibo cards with on here is probably a scammer. Bye bye cards I sent out. On top of that we ordered dinner from a place that is normally great but tonight was awful. I ordered spaghetti & meatballs which is usually amazing but tonight there was very little gravy... er, spaghetti sauce and the spaghetti was greasy for some reason.

Meh...

Sending big big hugs to my love! I really hope things get better soon and hope that user didn't flee or I'm kicking butt.

I have to go back home tomorrow since my visit is ending, but I don’t feel like going back home. But at least school’s almost over.

Also, my travel pillows have picked up some of my traits. They love going on vacations too.

Ahh, I'm sorry x_x Hope it'll get better. Also re that user give them negative feedback or something so people know, or report them depending on how that system works here.

Woke up all achey, hope this morning's workout will help me feel better. Plus need to do so before these people call.

I wanted to update my signature to include my town info for Leafton, but it was too big, even as a spoiler...

 

[Bcat]

It’s a beautiful rainy day, and I have to spend it at a wedding for a distant relative I don’t even like

 

[honeyaura]

I'm feeling unusual very lazy with working on my projects today. Just really out of the zone, hope I can find the spark soon.
