He wakes me at 5am every day because he slams stuff really loud. He doesn’t even have work early he just wake up at 5am and stays home all day.
Should I do revenge on him and slamm stuff at 12 am when I go to sleep
Don’t escalate, he is home all day and has more time to escalate.
Talk nicely, make a friend, move are all good options.
What type of neighbor? House, townhouse, apartment?
What exactly is he banging? Garbage bins, Kitchen Cabinets, Dresser, Closet?
There are solutions that don’t involve being an asshole back to them in some of those situations.
Apsrmtent, and I would say cabinets and doors
You could go order something that helps with that and ask them nicely to use them.
Something like these are cheap and easy: https://www.amazon.ca/Scotch-SP951-NA-Self-Stick-Rubber-Bumper/dp/B01N74P0QB/
Yeah indeed he could just try asking nicely 😀
What’s your relationship with your neighbor? I’d say try to communicate with them before turning this into one of those stereotypical neighbor feuds.
Ist really bad he has always hated me
Gee, I wonder why
Probably because he’s a passive aggressive freak like you
I would ask nicely first before becoming aggressive. What’s going on in your head and how you perceive events might totally be different than him. I used to get up at 3am because I liked it. Tried to be quiet but people are imperfect.
No he bangs loudly on the wall when I shower late , he also imitates my cats and makes loud chair ahreching noises any time it meows
It sounds like this is a case of two noisy neighbours hating each other’s noise, lol
Definitely don’t do any revenge before just asking him nicely, and then maybe not so nicely; if that fails, go for it.
He is very mean always I think he’s a piece of crap and a loser asshole
Unspoken expectations are pre-medidated resentments.
I’m literally so mad I can’t take it anymore

He was never respectful
In that case it seems like murdering him is the only reasonable solution.

I’m a woman and he is already a deadbeat dad and kind of attractive so I don’t want to take any risks , meaning he’s a POS but I’ve seen him be charming and manipulative so I want to avoid interacting with him as much as possible

Call the police and make a noise complaint every single morning. Let the owners know you’re doing the same. Give the police the owners contact info.
Go to bed early and wake up at 5am.
Best bet is police reports. Stack enough of them, someone has to do something. if this is apartment related.
yea
no
why not
don’t listen to him. you need to show dominance. take a crap in the guy’s mouth
First, it won’t stop the problem.
Second, you stupidly posted about it online meaning it’s a planned thing. He might be accidentally loud. You’re planning harassment. Guess who the cops will arrest.
He’s a person. Talk to him nicely. He may have no idea at all that he’s bothering people, so don’t come in hot like a crazy person.
No because it’s obvious he’s harassing me. Any time I make the smallest noise he bangs on the wall
I had no idea our 40lb Boston Terrier/Beagle mix walking around was so loud for our downstairs neighbors. After they told us, we invested in some rugs to try and dampen the sound.
Of course, they would get into screaming matches at 3am with each other until the cops were called - then the cops would ring our buzzer because they refused to answer.
I do not miss apartment living.
Escalation sucks when the other side has little to lose.
If you rent, get your landlord to talk with them. It’s likely that they simply don’t know how loud they are. Otherwise you could write a nicely worded letter.
If all diplomatic options are exhausted, then I would hang up some speakers so they’re facing into the wall; then go ham with the heaviest, bassiest songs I have at all times that your local by-laws allow that also overlap with the times they would be sleeping.
I did this with a particularly shitty neighbour and it apparently solved the issue (though maybe they were finally evicted). They would be up until 3-4 am (sometimes later) literally blasting music and I have to leave for work by 830am; so, I started blasting some dubstep into walls at 8am.
My speakers broke because I am in a third world country and I got jbl speakers from some Romanian website which just broke for some reason and they had a 2 year warranty but apparently they just don’t want to fix them so now I’m poor and can’t buy speakers again why is life so sad
:( shit
