This conversation was triggered by a woman pictured who said she had a nosy neighbor who always seemed to know her own business.
“She’s spying or staring at the Ring’s bell (this isn’t the first time she’s learned about us without telling her, and I’ve caught her spying on her before),” the woman said.
By asking people to share their neighbors’ nightmare stories, they were able to “put it into perspective”, people transcending the nosy neighbor’s dilemma with stories about border disputes, theft, and even orgies.
One person said their neighbor had sent them fake legal letters about where the boundary in the garden should be after they “attempted” to steal a piece of land.
Another person from Knutsford said that neighbors have an annex built by a “failed contractor”, but that works has managed to remove half the roof from their kitchen, which they discovered only when they got home. from work. .
Many have had border disputes with their neighbors and have even been taken to court.
A couple had such a lengthy argument with their neighbors that they went to court over where to put the fence between their house.
The banner read: “We came home to find it” [our next-door neighbour] moved the border fence in front of our property. He had set up cameras to film what our reaction would be.
“When we spoke to him, he insisted that the strip of land was his.”
They added that the dispute, which cost two years of legal fees, was damaging to their mental health.
For many people who live with nightmarish neighbors nearby, their pets are a source of tension.
This person’s neighbor takes curiosity to a new level and watches him take a shower. Another claims he tried to steal his neighbors’ cats
While one person accused his neighbor of trying to steal his cat, another made a darker allegation: The neighbor poisoned his cat.
Fortunately, the cat survived the ordeal, but is “a little nervous about new people,” according to the owner.
Nosy neighbors are a privacy breach at best, but one poster said the woman living next door took the curiosity to a new level.
They wrote: “My ex-neighbour was really passive-aggressive, and then I caught him near my bathroom window while I was taking a shower a few times.”
They added: “I had strong words and invested in shutters.”
Neighborhood stories about nightmares ranged from people with parking problems to people invited to an orgy.
Others complained of breaking into nightmare neighbors’ homes, gossiping about new partners with ex-girlfriends, and even getting aggressive about parking.
However, one person seemed to have the opposite problem as their partner was very friendly.
They wrote: “We lived with a couple who were constantly trying to cheat us in an orgy.
“It started very subtle, then moved on to less subtle clues and one day they came up with it. We said no and we stayed friends but it was weird.’
Among the nightmare neighbors shouting at the wires was a couple who were nudes and scaring children.
