Neighbours and their behaviour

[howtorebuild]

They are low grade pains in the arse. I won't give the laundry list. One issue. They placed tape on my property without asking my permission. They ripped it off and took off the paint. I asked them in writing to propose what they were going to do to fix. No proposal in writing they want to talk I don't for medical reasons. They have today painted just the damaged strip again touching my property without permission.

I feel they are trying to piss me off on purpose and have a fight. I am getting to the point where I am beginning to fucking hate them it feels like they are trying to annoy me on purpose and cause continual problems to gain my attention.

What do I do? I think ignore, my adult DD thinks I should go on them like a tonne of bricks now or they will continue.

Just bear in mind if you persist you may end up with legal action for harassment against you.

It may be preferable to get the medical treatment.

On the bad neighbour front this is barely a 1/10. Ripping off some tape?!

Having had properly bad neighbours I would chill out and count your blessings.

We had

Loud gangster rap at all hours so we couldn't sleep
Loud rough drink gatherings in garden all summer so we couldn't use garden
Large intimidating group of drug dealers outside who I had to run gauntlet of whenever I left flat
Badly trained staffordshire dogs leaping fence and shitting in our garden not to mention terrifying us
Loud Jeremy Kyle type drunken fights in the street etc.

I dreamed of "bad" neighbours like yours. We moved obv.

'the darker pain beneath'. I'm sorry to read this.

OP are you alone at the moment? Is someone with you?

What does your dd say about it? Does she live with you?

In the nicest possible way OP, please see your GP. This is a massive overreaction. They don't need permission to touch your property the same as a postman doesn't need permission to touch your property to deliver items. They inadvertently damaged paint whilst doing some work, they tried to fix it. I get the impression no matter what they do it will be wrong with you. No one is playing mind games, no one is out to make you miserable.
I actually think your daughter is being highly irresponsible by encouraging you.

Did you specify what paint you had used before. Often similar colours or even the same brand but of different batch, can vary , so it would have been a best match. Maybe it needs a second coat. If you have any of the original left you could ask them to use it. However unless it is a significant area and very visible chances are it will weather down.

Are you neighbours aware that you prefer to communicate by writing? It is pretty usual for people to talk through stuff like this. Could your DD ask them for their e mail address so you can communicate better?
