Im at my wits end. We moved into a new build block of apartments 8 days ago. We are on the top 2nd floor.
I am a single mum of 2 boys aged 4 & 6. I am very busy - I rarely get a minute to myself and I have to be meticulously organised with time as everything just falls to pot otherwise.
Within 2 days of moving in the girl below me (same landlord) had been up 5 times. First time friendly hello and introducing one another, the next few times she bought her 5 month old baby up and just kept coming up for no reason but to chat.
I dont mind being friendly neighbours and will always say hello and be polite but this is taking the biscuit. On first exchange we swapped numbers which was fine by me at first. Ever since she has been non stop whatsapping me inane drivel and asking to come up at least 3 times a day. She comes up and knocks anyway regardless of my answer - one evening gone 9pm she was thumping the door so hard it woke up ds and upset him. 4 days after moving in she messaged me asking to have her 5 month old baby for the afternoon. I was shocked, I am essentially a stranger and told her so.
Throughout the week this has carried on and on until Thursday I had enough - I sent a polite but assertive text stating that all this had to stop. I was getting extremely anxious when the door knocked and I just cannot trust somebody who will pawn her child off to a stranger or be friends with someone so harassing. She believed she had done no wrong and backed off (not stopped completely) for the weekend.
Roll on today she is back to the asking and knocking on and the flurry of messages. I cant do this anymore, I have a life and children to tend to, I do not want to be her friend.
I have been ignoring messages and the door but how do I get this to stop? Its made me so anxious and jittery - I just want to enjoy my lovely new home and children after a hellish year in our old house.
