Many Americans have a problem with at least one of their neighbors, a survey says

“The Dangerous Neighbor” raises alarm bells because of their overall vibe and the yelling that goes on in their house in the wee hours of the morning. “The Clueless Neighbor” is the type who is unaware that they are stepping over boundaries because of their actions.

Finally, we have “The Difficult Neighbor.” They are described as “anyone who makes your life more complicated than it needs to be.” And based on the original poster’s account, the woman he dealt with falls under this category.

A little friendliness is the best way to handle a difficult neighbor

“I really feel that the small amount of physical contact goes a long way with neighbors. I notice who keeps to themselves and it comes off as being unfriendly.

“These days, there aren’t many chances of making impressions with your neighbors, so a simple wave or hello can represent you well.”

“If you explain your problem in a reasonable, nice way, suddenly you’re no longer anonymous.”

The original poster went the opposite route when he dealt with hisneighbor issue, and it seems like it worked out well for him.
