How Can I Set A Boundary Between Me And My Neighbor? by Nobody: 1:34pm On Mar 22, 2022 |
I have this new neighbor that packed in last three months, that talk to people anyhow. But he feels it's a normal conversation. Over the weekend I was cleaning my house and my car, only for him to tell me I clean my car too much. And was saying other nasty things and was laughing thinking is a normal thing. There's no single day that i will wash my car that this guy will not say this to me, how I valued my car more than my life. Normally, this guy can not look me with straight face and be telling me this kind of nonsense if I didn't create this kind of familiarity with him in the first place. How can i avoid this guy in a matured manner so that he won't even decode I'm avoiding him? 148 Likes 15 Shares |

Don't reply him, keep a straight face. If he is sensible or has any self- respect left, he either reduces the interaction or mind his business. 453 Likes 15 Shares |

POSmecrhant:Interesting claim there... so how exactly did you go about creating this kind of familiarity with him in the first place? Um... why not do start by doing exactly what you would do to people who pose a nuisance here online... ignore? Why make it seem it all has to do with your ego and stuff? 10 Likes 2 Shares |

I don't see the need for wanting to set boundaries with him; he is just concerned about your obsession with your car's neatness. I know your type. I once had a tenant who'd wash his car at 5am, sometimes very late at night and even under the scorching sun. It is obviously queer. I think you should ignore him but if you really want to address it, next time he askes why you always wash your car, Tell him that ever since you fvcked his wife inside the car, you've had to wash it daily to get rid of the smell of her kpekus from it. This should either help you out or put you in more trouble. 528 Likes 31 Shares |

POSmecrhant:This is all you think created the kind of familiarity with him in the first place? You need to let go and learn to ignore him. There are folks whose insecurities function like that of your neighbor's. You should not let other people's issues continue to push your buttons. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

If u don't have bad mouth to reply him just ignore him when he comes talking, silence will hurt him. When he talks to himself with no reply from u, he will stop. 34 Likes 2 Shares |

Actually, there are some people that doesn't know how to relate with others especially while talking... And majority of them were introverts.. Most of them are good guys but when they opened their mouth u feel disgusted...If u settle down to observe, u will find out that they were trying so hard to relate... It's just in their DNA.. and they don't even know that they were offending someone that they were speaking with...If u throw an insult at him, he might be really surprised thinking where and when he has offended you... Some will go back to their shell never to return.. They are many like that here in Nairaland... Those ones that Will insult someone seeking for an advice first before dishing out whatever they wanna say... Making one wonder if the insults thrown makes the recipient understand the advice better.... Only respond to his greetings and ignore whatever he has to say by concentrating on your car.. Do not.. I repeat do not insult him please 175 Likes 13 Shares |

POSmecrhant:Firstly you need to let your neighbor know that you don't like such statement, am tell him to stop making such comment to you again. And you need to be really serious while making this declaration to him. To avoid him is a simple thing, just say hello whenever you guys meet again, nothing should make you converse with him for just 2minutes. 16 Likes 1 Share |

Well Just continue acting maturely and allow him to keep embarrassing himself talking aimlessly, like others just pointed out if he is sensible then you silence should send him a message that his senseless talk and jokes are not welcome. 8 Likes 1 Share |

POSmecrhant: Sometimes the best advice sound like insult or are irritating. Be glad he even lays his mind bare, unlike other neighbors who will laugh at you behind you, thereby making you feel horrible when you later find out. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Just smile one second and focus on what you're doing the next second. At least you weren't rude but in the same vein, you don't have time for that bullshit. If he doesn't stop the snide remarks, that means he lacks the mental capacity to understand your disinterest. In that case you need to ignore him as you would ignore mad men who throw thoughtless words your way. 9 Likes 1 Share |
