Neighbor’s 4am Routine Disturbs Sleep, Yet Upset When Confronted

Oh, the joys of having neighbours! A woman is at her wit’s end with the folks living above her. Picture this: she’s been rudely awakened by 4am stomping, sounding like a full-on gym session happening right above. What’s worse? The neighbours have the cheek to moan about HER playing music in the afternoon. Now, that’s a plot twist!

She tried being nice—sent cards, flashed friendly smiles, even asked them politely to keep it down before 7am. But it seems like her efforts were in vain, especially with ‘Teresa the Trampler’ keeping up the early morning antics, even though she only works a couple of weekends a month now.

The irony? Despite her and her husband being the ‘quiet couple’ in the building, shutting everything down by 10pm out of courtesy, their upstairs mates seem to have no off button. The noise persists late into the night! She’s even logged the disturbances, sometimes recorded at over 70 decibels.

And here’s where it gets bizarre—they text or call her at ungodly hours, and apparently, think her life is public business. It all came to a head when she snapped and decided to block them. One comment online suggested calling the police due to the harassment.

Yet another user hit the nail on the head, saying you can’t change people who don’t want to change themselves. Despite the chaos, the advice was to keep smiling and not let them see they’re bothering you. Who knows, maybe that’ll do the trick?

For now, it seems she’s stuck in this unwanted drama since moving isn’t an option. Any tips for handling noisy neighbours? Share your thoughts!
