Coincidence or weird?

A few weeks ago my partner had to go away for a few days so I was here in the house by myself.. On one of the evenings I listened to a particular song quietly and pottered about. The music would not be heard by anyone outside the house.

The following day I went out for a few hours and on return the neighbours were in their garden playing the exact same piece of music I’d been listening to the previous evening. As I went into my house they disappeared inside too. I’ve never known them to play music outside. Tbh, It made me feel very uncomfortable but I’ve ignored it. Aibu to feel uncomfortable or should I just assume it’s a coincidence?

Have you noticed anywhere else since? Things like this happen and if you noticed the song a couple of times to start, further observations of the song in your life appear to build up over time. However its just you being more aware of it that is helping you notice it, rather than it occurring more often.

@LampLighter414 no I haven’t noticed anything else but I haven’t been here by myself since.

@Poptart4 thanks for the diagnosis. If you’d said hypervigilance, I’d agree with you; paranoia implies a delusional belief with no evidence to support that feeling. As I’ve said, my experiences here have caused me concern and financial loss.
