Neighbour constantly walking through my front garden.

I am not sure if my dh was being unreasonable for shouting at him this morning so here it goes. Not 100% sure if it is my neighbours eldest son or there daughters boy friend. He sleeps there most nights but doesn't appear to have house keys, I know this because he sits in his car at the bottom of my drive waiting to be let in. So he went through a stage of what ever side of the drive I parked in he would park directly behind me across the bottom of the drive blocking me in. This made it difficult to get off the drive as I was blocked in and had to kind of edge backwards and forwards to move the car to the otherside of the drive to reserve off it safely. We have a dropped kerb that runs the whole width of the drive but this didn't seem to bother him. I started reversing on to make it easier to pull off and out of the blue he stopped doing it. He has now moved on walking through our front garden to get to and from this car. So he comes out of their house steps over a small wall and walks right over my front door step and behind my car. He will push my kitchen windows in if they are open wide so he can fit behind the car easier then trotts off down the drive. On occasion if we have been leaving at the same time he has bumped into my dc or I have had to step back to stop him walking into me, I have asked him to stop but he doesn't. So this morning when dh was leaving for work he did it again and dh lost his temper and shouted at him and swore a bit, was dh in the wrong for this and how would you deal with the situation?

Sorry x-posted, wooo hooo for army Dad! Can't believe the boy still tried to go his usual route though! If it wasn't so ridiculous it would be funny!

Whats his justification for name calling?

MrsJamesMathews · 16/05/2017 15:19

Cheeky little fucker. Shocking.

"He called me a petty bitch through the kitchen window."

Did he call it out as he was walking by, or actually stand there talking to you, as if he wanted a response?

What a prick!

HappyFlappy · 16/05/2017 15:19

Your dad is a HERO!

I wish I'd been butterfly on the plant pot when this kicked off!

Missb00 · 16/05/2017 15:20

Also if I were you I'd still have a word with the neighbour in passing, let them know what a lovely young man their DD is with Smile

burdog · 16/05/2017 15:21

oh YOU'RE the petty one?! Cheeky sod. Glad your dad made him take the proper way.

justkeepswimmingg · 16/05/2017 15:21

Oh my!! How exciting OP. What a cheek to call you a petty bitch for obstructing his trespassing Grin haha. I'm so glad your dad was there too. However I don't think this will be the last we hear of this for some reason. He sounds like he doesn't have a clue about any boundaries, or basic social skills.

mikeyssister · 16/05/2017 15:21

The brass neck of him.

I love your Daddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Freddystarshamster · 16/05/2017 15:22

Plus the bumping into could be seen as assault as he had no business being there in the first place

You really have no idea of the law at all. Please try and read up on some before giving dodgy advice on the internet

BoredOnMatLeave · 16/05/2017 15:22

For my personal sanity I need to know if he ever tries to use that route again OP Smile

VictoriaMcdade · 16/05/2017 15:22

Well done OP and Army Dad!

This is not over yet though...

Fragglez · 16/05/2017 15:22

Yessss!!! Most satisfying thread EVER!

DarthMaiden · 16/05/2017 15:23

He called you a bitch Shock the scrotemless shitbag?

I'm surprised your DF didn't plant him in the bloody pots would have saved on plants, you could even have put some twinkly lights on him

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 16/05/2017 15:23

Can't believe he had the cheek to call you a petty bitch!
I'd be round to the NDN to have a word about that!

WhatchaMaCalllit · 16/05/2017 15:24

Way to go Light's Dad!!!

Did Weird Boy apologise for calling you a stupid bitch??

If he uses this way through your garden again, you can report him for trespassing as he has specifically been told not to use it as a through-way to the house he wants to visit.

scootinFun · 16/05/2017 15:24

I'd follow up by having a word with your neighbours. In no way should you get called a petty bitch for doing what you want on your own property.

BillyButtfuck · 16/05/2017 15:26

This definitely needs a follow up with the neighbours.
I'm so pleased your dad was there and could step in for you and explain things to him but the fact he went on to just take a different route on your property makes me think he will still just hop the wall from time to time Hmm

StillStayingClassySanDiego · 16/05/2017 15:26

Cheeky twat!

I'm still puzzled about why he took the route up your path, it's bizarre.

gingerscot · 16/05/2017 15:26

Keep a super soaker to hand just for a while. Just in case he needs reminding. Like you'd do with cats 😆

mikeyssister · 16/05/2017 15:26

Definitely speak to neighbours

crazycatgal · 16/05/2017 15:27

A petty bitch? Honestly I don't know how any of you have managed to keep calm with this cheeky fucker.

Hopefully the idiot has got the message now and will behave like a normal human being and walk through his own drive:

notapizzaeater · 16/05/2017 15:27

What an idiot, I'd tell the neighbours as well - I'd be mortified if a visitor of mine was causing hassle.

Roomster101 · 16/05/2017 15:28

Cheeky sod. Definitely speak to your neighbours too.

MrsHathaway · 16/05/2017 15:30

Well done Dad!

"Petty bitch"? Entitled misogynist wanker.
