Neighbor i HATE has signed for my parcel

lockex · 24/07/2015 19:10

This man has harassed me and made me feel uncomfortable since i moved in here with constantly knocking on my door, i complained to the landlord who have told him NOT to knock on my door and to leave me alone.

came back from work to find He has signed for my parcel
WHY would you sign for A parcel that belongs to a neighbor who has complained about you harassing them, and i only complained about 3 days ago so WHY?!
This man a few days ago when i left my flat and drove around the corner, i pulled up to answer my phone, i then saw him at the end of the road looking at my car, he then walked off and came back and PEAKED around the corner.
i see him outside just staring at my car and then he turns around and looks up at my window and stares.
He is so creepy!
This is really stressing me out, i have told amazon they need to collect the parcel from him as i will NOT be in ANY communication with him.

He is absolutely OBSESSED with me!
He was told not to ring my door so now he has signed for my parcel so he thinks i have to ring his door
He also signed the WRONG name, not even his name and YES it WAS him who signed for it, amazon have CONFIRMED

(EXAMPLE: he signed his name as TONY when his name is TOM)

i dont like him even knowing my full name he is so creepy
so im asking SHOULD I GET THE POLICE INVOLVED
im sick of this shit i JUST WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE!!!!!

His behaviour sounds odd, in fairness to the OP. It would unsettle me; I would not seek out a friendship.

Dumdedumdedum · 24/07/2015 20:16

Get a friend to knock on his door, if you really don't want to yourself. It is much nicer for a neighbour to sign for an Amazon parcel than for you to have to go and fetch it from the post office during office hours, if you are working normal hours. Or to have it sent back to Amazon in the hope that they will re-deliver it when you are home.

YouBastardSockBalls · 24/07/2015 20:16

Getting a bit of an undeserved flaming here OP Shock

Flowers

This thread proves that the way the first few responses go generally affect the way the whole thread goes.

Hope you're ok OP.

themadwoman · 24/07/2015 20:17

Maybe he's trying to be nice and make an effort while you are throwing it back in his face?

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 24/07/2015 20:19

I feel sorry for your neighbour. You don't sound at all nice.

He soulds lonely. You sound weird.

Give her a break! Why should she tolerate behaviour she finds unsettling?

SrAssumpta · 24/07/2015 20:21

You both sound a bit touched to be honest

LIZS · 24/07/2015 20:22

He offered you a cup of tea and you were upset ? Maybe he took the parcel in to spite you maybe he was just confused. Have you complained to ll again that his behaviour is intimidating and inappropriate. He may have health issues affecting how he relates to you and others but I also suspect your anxiety may be distorting your perception of quirky, but still within the range of acceptable, behaviour. Make sure you can distinguish between the two.

Meandyou150 · 24/07/2015 20:23

Get a grip OP

Haily111 · 24/07/2015 20:27

I think a lot of you are being unkind. Anxiety Is shitty at the best of times. No One has actually met this bloke, so we cant say he isn't creepy.
I am sorry you are having a hard time OP. I would suggest logging it with the police and/or council. And getting Amazon to sort out the parcel xx

Mrsfluff · 24/07/2015 20:28

Whether the neighbour is lonely is not the OP's concern, she is not responsible for keeping him company and making him happy. The OP is entitled to feel comfortable and safe in her own home - his wants and feelings do not come before her own!

etKrusTe · 24/07/2015 20:29

He sounds annoying. I sympathisse. I'd take a deep breath and just go and get the parcel, but don't go in. he'll invite you in of course and then spend ages getting the parcel so just wait outside, and say 'ill take it off your hands now' and ''no need for you to mind it any longer''.

You've got a roasting here. People enjoy dishing out roastings, so ignore it.

redbinneo · 24/07/2015 20:32

He's done you a favour by signing for your parcel, I don't understand why you are whingeing about him.

ImperialBlether · 24/07/2015 20:32

Why can't we take the OP's word for it that there is something about this man that unsettles her?

Some of these comments are victim blaming at their worst.

The5DayChicken · 24/07/2015 20:33

Victim blaming? Victim of what? Being creeped out by a lonely and possibly slightly batty old bloke?

themadwoman · 24/07/2015 20:35

Who again was probably just being nice and doing a favour for OP by signing for the parcel

Haily111 · 24/07/2015 20:35

But how do you know he is JUST batty?!

The5DayChicken · 24/07/2015 20:37

I don't know that. Just as I don't know there's nothing more sinister to those who don't creep me out. Doesn't make OP a victim.

SouthWestmom · 24/07/2015 20:39

We have an elderly neighbour and it's just deep breath, take five minutes out of your day and have a chat. It's good karma isn't it? I don't think you should demonise him based on loneliness but equally it can be annoying.

alwaysaskingquestionz · 24/07/2015 20:43

Jesus christ WHY should she spend any time with him if she doesn't want to? I'm lonely, I don't go knocking strangers doors for tea. OP get the parcel with a mate. And hope your anxiety improves Flowers

drudgetrudy · 24/07/2015 20:45

Go round to get it with a friend preferably male-just say Thanks and very little else. His behaviour does sound a bit odd to me.

OstentatiousBreastfeeder · 24/07/2015 20:52

Hang on, I didn't understand the bit about him being topless and pulling his trousers up - what happened there?

I do wonder about people when these threads pop up, and they advise the OP to forget about their instincts and feelings and befriend people who are clearly making them uncomfortable. Fuck your feelings, BE A NICE PERSON AT ALL COSTS. Weird.

themadwoman · 24/07/2015 20:54

Maybe, just maybe OP fancies her neighbour? ;)

Haily111 · 24/07/2015 20:56

Agree OB

BabyFeets · 24/07/2015 20:58

Its okay for men over the age of 65 to harass you because they are lonely but young lads giving you a hug in the street or getting whistled at is harassment. As long as the male in question is of pension age they can do what they like to you.

Mumsnet logic.

BabyFeets · 24/07/2015 21:00

im sure people were telling johanna yates it was all in her head...
