      I agree. I have had some bad neighbors. I have lived in this house for 5 years, and have had a share of neighbors. I live in a condo, and the first bad neighbor was our landlord. Our house has bad carpet, and he promised to fix it, and asked my mother out, she said no and he refused to fix it. He moved out because the house had stairs and he had knee problems. Then we got some new neighbors, which was a rehab. They were totally doing drugs and drinking, and once drove their car onto our pathway. My mom politely asked them to move it, and they refused. They then went to call her horrible names that I heard through our window.

    Definitely put a shed there! That's probably the best thing you can do, I think if you call code enforcement on them it might just escalate, but yeah, so weird of them to just stand in the middle of the yard and watch you for a prolonged period of time.

      Yeah I do worry about it escalating, especially with the completely random call to the fire dept when we've had countless fires here. They seem to just be looking for things to complain about...and I'd have originally said that maybe they're just lonely but they give us dirty looks so it's probably not that haha

      Good call! Now that I think of it, I remember my Mom's best friend had a horrible neighbor and they just hated their bulldog, which was only outside to go to the bathroom and have a little playtime. One day, it was poisoned with antifreeze (I believe it was). Of course they couldn't prove the neighbor did it, but they are pretty sure he did.

      Thankfully I live in a neighborhood filled to the brim with animals. Our dogs aren't even the most vocal. The people next door have three large dogs that could probably eat my dogs if they wanted to and could. lol Then the neighbor on the other side, their son has a bulldog that sounds like she smokes a pack a day. Then down the street four doors down, they have four dogs, like five children, and a pig named Charlotte that's about the size of a large dog and continues to get bigger. She's a sweetheart, really, but when she was just a little thing she'd always get out and walk around the neighborhood. Three doors down between us and them is a nice woman with a husky and a German Sheppard, I believe, who I happen to be friends with. Then we have my two dogs who are rat terriers who just love to tree squirrels and bark their butts off. One of which is old and he honestly just likes to bark for the fun of it. He's the dog version of the old man that yells at kids on his lawn. Them and the neighbors large ass dogs always have little powwows when they're all out there. I call them playdates, because they all just stand there barking at each other through the chain link fence. Anyways, I'm just thankful that we don't have a problem with non animal lovers in my neighborhood. We're right at the edge of the city, so animals are all over the place. Stray cats and foxes and owls and coyotes. Hell, I've seen fawns and does in the edge of the backwoods. We also have a peacock nursery down a couple blocks, and then there are alpacas hanging around there as well. Over all, a very animal friendly place to be. Pretty sure that if anybody ever tried that type of ish here, there'd be hell to pay and someone would get shot. Don't mess with midwest, rural area gun and pet owners. Shit goes down fast if a pet or person is hurt in any way. We protect our own, whether they're human or not. Old, young, etc. Man, did I write a novel. I'm sorry. lol

      We previously lived in a neighborhood where we were all friends and hung out every weekend (we usually had a bbq or did a small campfire for the kids to roast marshmallows nothing crazy)... with the exception of one family. They refused to leave the house and we never met them. Like clockwork they would call the police and fire dept. every single sat night over the summer... we eventually got to know the fire fighters so well we would have their hot dogs and burgers ready just they way they liked and they would know our kids by name during fire prevention week at school😂 eventually they brought the police with them and told the lady if she called again they would arrest her for false 911 calls.

  • @ashleyelizabethlibby8538

    I live in Maine as well and, maybe it’s something in the water, but our neighbor is overly nosy as well. She also kept coming into our yard, telling us where we could and couldn’t plant flowers, told us to get rid of the beautiful lilac tree in our yard because the septic was under it (it wasn’t - it was on the opposite side of the house and she knew that). Look in our windows and knock on them to get my attention rather than use the front door. Etc. It all came to a head one day when she came into our yard and pointed at a small hole in the ground and told us we needed to get it filled. We had been planning on it but had moved there recently and hadn’t gotten around to it. She then backed up, “fell in the hole” and called her friend to bring her to the ER. She came back in a sling and neck brace (that I never saw her wear again), and told us that her insurance company was “BEGGING” her to tell her who’s property caused her to hurt herself because she had “every right to sue us”. We built a giant 5ft+ wooden fence right after that and facing her house so she couldn’t just walk into our yard and look in our windows anymore.

  • @stacyw8466
    @stacyw8466 Před 4 lety +4

    Before calling code enforcement, I would formally introduce myself and try to talk to them, even if it is just general conversation. Many times older people are wary of younger people just because of crime, laziness, etc. They made be worried about these things and not knowing who you are could influence these feelings. They grew up in a generation where neighbors introduced themselves and got to know each other. Just a different perspective and option.

    I totally get how you feel about being spied on and the light. We have two neighbors that regularly spy on us when we're outside in our backyard and one of them has some lights up that shine right into our bedroom window all night long almost every single night. And the other one actually put a frisbee golf goal on our property so we're going to be getting a surveyor out here so that we can make them remove it because they've been asked you and haven't in 6 months. It's all really frustrating.

The female dog is a lazy lady who loves to lay in the road it scares me she's so sweet and my father in law brings her home a biscuit every day plus he gives her leftovers. She knows when he opens his backdoor she's getting something yummy. They recently let their very large younger male dog roam free and he was intimidating at first because he is very large but he's a sweetie and just scared of people.

We also bought a security light with the highest lumens we could find. Aka the power of the sun. Pointed directly back at them. As soon as they turn their light on, ours goes on too. Guess what?

    Love the video!! Gotta love nosy neighbors (not!) Lol We have definitely had an old neighbor like that. she was our neighbor in a duplex. She too kept her house immaculate and was very rude to us. She has called the police saying our grass was too high when it wasn't and even the police said "it doesn't look high..?" We got some chickens to keep in a pen that she complained about saying we were now encouraging all the wild animals (possums and raccoons) to come to the neighborhood. 🤷 how? I don't know... And then once we got rid of the pen for a different reason, we had a privacy fence put up. She could not see into our backyard, but one day claimed we had our chicken pen back again. Claimed it in a way that led me to believe that she had looked over the fence into our backyard. Then there were many flies in her garage one day. They apparently were landing on the wall in her garage that connects our garages together. She claimed that there was something in OUR garage that the flies were smelling and that's why they were landing in her garage on that particular wall.... Uhhh what?! I ultimately think that old people just don't have much going on and their house is one of their only pride and joys and so they're just going to be nosy and annoying about everything. They are bored. I think you are right about that. Love the video very entertaining Good job keep it up

    Try to get to know them. Put in some effort in making conversation with them. Make them an apple pie or invite them over. Eventually bring bring up the light. Very lightly.. and then maybe bring it up again. Ask if they had any bad experiences in the neighborhood. Eventually kindly ask them to remove it. Get that storage and block their view. It might have been rude or inconvenient how the older couple went about everything. But I’ve had a loving, loving, loving stubborn grandpa😉. Who could come off odd or rude.. but once that barrier is broken... just a stubborn, generous, loving, joy to be around. Always giving his advice to others and would put the effort into caring about them. once you break that ice.. and put a little effort. It may turn around. Old people tend to stare. Not to be mean, but because they are curious and concerned. At that age they could be oblivious to “how “ people “should” act socially. Make some effort in getting to know them tho. Not just “how are you doing”. Maybe ask if they have any tips on getting a security system, gardening? Places to eat?You have a perception of them .. and so do they. So make the first move🙃 even if they stay an odd older couple. Most ppl don’t understand how to get older couples... (that may have had it rough) to break down their walls. .. all this advice .. is coming from someone who hates confrontation too❤️❤️❤️good story time video ❤️can’t wait for any updates 💕

    Shed is a good idea. Also lilac bushes planted a bit close together in a line to each side radiating out from the shed (at least that's how I am picturing it). I'm a grumpy old woman myself, with lots of experience, soooo let me tell you what may help a bunch; Ignore, and I mean pretend these people are actually invisible (your cannot see them!) and you are not even able to hear them. Never ever give them eye contact. To you they occupy some other universe. Never reply. They do not exist in your world. Whenever you give a look or a reply you grant them enormous amounts of power and that is exactly what gives them "joy". Think of them as annoying and much younger little brothers (sorry guys). Take care of yourselves and your own and do not grant them any more "power".

    So like can we see some dog content? My cat's name is Gypsy and my daughter's puppy is half great pyrenees so I'm intrigued! Sorry you're having neighbor stress. My neighbor has loud parties and lets her pets roam the neighborhood and it causes problems, so I totally understand your pain!

    I work at a fire department and we get BS calls for stuff like this all the time. Trust me, we might get a *little* annoyed because its not actually a fire but we are honestly more than happy to get out of the fire house later at night before we go to bed. but yeah, i would definitely call code enforcement on them and if they keep staring at you i would say to make a formal complaint but you dont live in apt buildings

    There are some people who expect (no, demand) that everyone around them be extra responsible and reasonable while they are neither. It sucks. Please be extra careful as in situations like this, people have been known to leave poisoned food in yards where they for some reason dislike or are scared of an animal.

    People call the Fire Dept for the dumbest shit. I work for a newspaper and a fireman once told me that someone had called them because they saw "thick black smoke" coming from a window. It had actually just been steam from a pot of soup in a kitchen.

  • @bobodianne
    @bobodianne Před 4 lety +1

    they need to feel considered as the bosses of the surroundings, it's like this with older people been there. however i personally didn't put up with it... with older people it's kind of a code, that you as a younger one should go over and say hi first time - when they start to stare. ask them how they are, maybe they need help with something, compliment them about the garden... talk to them, if they have a good garden it means maybe the can at least stick to what they say. in your case i really think it's more about them feeling noticed. if that doesnt function, call in some for some extra help..

  • @amanda5889
    @amanda5889 Před 4 lety

    We have a neighbor who likes to stare too and thinks we don't see him. We call him the creeper. First night in the house we found him trying to look over our fence into our bedroom windows. That day went out and bought curtains not caring if they matched.

    @kenzie-anne Před 4 lety +15

    i would be very upset, they actually put your life in danger since fire fighters come into contact with a lot of people & they could potentially be carrying virus. our directive here in the West Island of Quebec is to only call police and fire if its absolutely necessary to limit contact. Im not a vindictive person or a confrontational one, but id def march over and ask what their problem is? or call about the light. what a waste of resources...they must be bored.

    • @TheNightOwl1212
      @TheNightOwl1212  Před 4 lety +5

      That's a good point about the virus! Luckily Brandon and the fireman maintained a decent distance from each other, but yeah emergency crews should not have to waste their time especially with everything going on. And I agree, they must be SUPER bored...

  • @fearxscape

    PLEASE report them. You have been nice long enough imo. Both my Father and my Husband retired from our local Fire Dept & unfortunately they get unnecessary calls more often than you would think. I have other Family members who are also Firefighters/Paramedics etc. Don't allow this couple to continue too bully u AND cont too call the FD just to bully u. Put ur shed up. Report their every single stalking moment etc. This way when the FD is called they will know it's going to most likely be a waste of their time & it won't be "As entertaining" for yr neighbors any longer. Jmo. Congrats on ur upcoming wedding.

  • @reginaantonia2557
    @reginaantonia2557 Před 4 lety

    This video got me! I don't usually comment... but bad neighbors are the worst! Sorry if I missed this, but sounds like they recently moved in? Very strange that they'd be newer to the neighborhood and behaving this way. They can't move into a place and expect all of their neighbors to conform to how they want to live, but with elderly people that's not uncommon. Funny when you got to the fire story because I was waiting for it... they're going to watch you and report you for breathing the wrong way until you move. They're annoyed they can't let their cat out because of your dog. They're annoyed you're young and enjoying your lives and living... in your yard. It has everything to do with them and nothing to do with you. I would definitely call code enforcement on the light and if you catch the staring again I'd call the police. Take photos. That's stalking and they have no right to make you uncomfortable in your home. Just a tip... if you say nothing and this escalates, law enforcement may not take your complaints seriously after the fact. Stay safe!

  • @carolyn22
    @carolyn22 Před 4 lety

    I highly highly highly suggest talking to your neighbors about the issues y'all have before going to anybody who owns the apartment because I've seen other videos where they're too scared to say something to their neighbors and they to someone that owns the building and runs it and it turns into a bad bad bad situation. As human beings we should be able to call me talk to each other and tell each other when something isn't right. At least give them that option to be understanding because you don't know their situation. It's highly unlikely but maybe they had a family member died from fire or something like that you just never know so that's why I say it's good to talk to them first as your first option

I can’t stand how the elderly feel entitled to the ways of the world. They really think it’s their way or no way and yes I can say that bc I take care of the elderly for a living lol

  • @LindseyMHull
    @LindseyMHull Před 4 lety

    I don't know if you have a fence, or if so how tall it is, but I would suggest to your landlord about getting a privacy fence. From the sounds of it, I'm sure the previous renters had issues with them and future renters after you probably will too. They're creepy and I wouldn't trust them at all. I would also totally call code enforcement. Where I live in the country, most people have flood lights but they're usually motion sensored. I am a paranoid person and flood lights make me feel a lot more comfortable. However, it's not fair for them to have it on a lot and to have it pointing in your house.
