I've been posting my neighbour problems hoping to find someone with the same problem. My neighbours think it ok to comment and make snide remarks when I am making private phone calls on my landline. I was on a bus a while ago and 2 young women were sitting nearby talking. One started telling the other about a book she was reading which described what happens to a person physically when they committed suicide by various different methods. I endured a description of one method and then they were about to start on the method my dad used. I said to them "please could you talk about something else as my dad committed suicide". They went quiet and then returned to chatting about shopping. When I got off the bus they said to me "we are very sorry" and I replied "don't worry about it, you didn't know". I was telling someone about this over the phone and when I got to the point where I asked the women to talk about something else the woman next door said "this will be good" through the party wall. It struck me it was good and most people would have reacted like those 2 young women. Another time I was telling someone my dad had no mental health problems and the man next door expressed his disbelief at this through the party wall. This made me feel very angry as the man next door didn't know my dad and it is none of his business. You'd also expect him keep his opinions to himself regarding something that painful, sensitive and private. My dad had Parkinson's and I certainly don't want to discuss that with the man next door. I'm surprised next door bother re my private phone calls-you'd think they'd have something better to do. Previous replies have suggested moving. I don't want to move. I like the house and garden. It is very handy for all the things I do. Most neighbours are ok too. I like to keep myself to myself. Also talking about my gross neighbours I have heard many, many neighbour problems and have noticed that women who live alone and like to keep themselves to themselves seem especially vulnerable to neighbour problems. Plus I've got rid of most of the awful round here and don't want to have to go through that again somewhere else. I ignore next door as much as possible, go out and away as much as possible, talk about it to people I feel treat me with respect and have several places I call homes from home where I can go and relax. I rarely sit in my garden because next door but have several places I can go and sit outside on a nice day. I also rarely use my phone.
