to want to move house because of a neighbour?

[Confusedmartie999]

Have only lived here 5 months and signed into 12 month contract so can't go anywhere before then :(
They are making my life bloody hell, first it was knocking as the cat was going in their cat flap at night so now we chase the cat around all evening trying to catch him. I'm apokugised and bought them chocolates.
Then they knocked about him going in during the day at siting on their sofa.
Then they knocked about hearing the TV through the living room walls and today they saw me scuff another neighbours car ( mainly due to them coming around the corner and I thought they were going to stop to let me out and they didn't so I turned too much ) and as I got out to go and knock on the neighbours door said " not good not good " even know I was in tears with 2 young children in the back.
I can't live there any longer than I have to.

Haven't seen the neighbour to say anything but still feels awful

Not seeing the neighbour is a good thing, right? No news is good news?

Hmmm yeah but it's almost more unnerving :(

Only if you sit around dwelling on it.

I'm finding it very hard not to, after knowing they repeated whAt my 4 year old did to a neighbour completely unrelated.
They are making it no secret how annoyed they are with the cat, he was sitting on the fence just now and they were saying to him no go away you're not coming in here upsetting our cats

You really are doing 90% of this to yourself.

OP, I have always been fairly anxious. Some times are worse than others. Last year I did a compassionate focused therapy course and catastrophisising is something we discussed. It really rings bells reading your posts.

Yes your neighbours sound annoying. But not to the extent that you are worrying and going over the minor events that have happened. You said they don't knock when your DH is home, they know they wouldn't get away with this crap. Get him to go around telling them to back off. I bet they do.

The fact that they told their neighbour/friend that your son hit the cat, it's true! The reasons are irrelevant. Your son tried to get the cat off the wall by hitting/knocking it with a handle, they told their friend about it (yes they need a life tbh). It is not the end of the world. It concerns me how much of a huge deal you are making these things. Tell them to jog on and be done with it. I'm not sure it is necessary for you to move over this. From threads on here there are far far worse people to live next to.

Ignore them and carry on with your life.

You sound very overly anxious.
