This nosy neighbor

You just have done the very right thing, Kalyni. If i were on your shoes, i would do the same too. I don't like to deal with nosy people, much more if it is a nosy neighbor. They could create havoc to the neighborhood. I abhor them. . .really!

The nosy neighbor is really something that is a nuisance to many people. They tend to want to butt into every single situation. Even when their prescience is really not wanted. Or in fact, it will make the situation far worse than it really is. Therefore, they tend to really be a nuisance. A neighbor should be someone who should be a help and obviously these people who are being nosy, they are the exact opposite of what they should be and that is really neighborly. It is a level of frustration beyond everything. Thankfully no nosy neighbors as of yet. At least in many years. There have been many people who have lived next to me, that have been rather nosy in the years. Thankfully they have really not been there for that long. That is really the best type of nosy neighbors, that they eventually realize that they wear out their weapon and then they head right out the door, never to be seen again for a while. Still nosy neighbors tend to be the worse in many ways. They add many problems.

I think you were right on in your reaction. I dont get close to our neighbors for just this reason. I prefer to live in peace as well.

nosy people drive me crazy. what happened should not blame to you, your neighbor id the one who made the rift. You just did the very right thing. I applaud you for it!

I will do the same as what you did. What is good in talking others life when you yourself is already very much occupied with your own life. Those type of people are fond of making fun out of others life without minding the time being wasted in telling non-sense stories, they should spend their time in a productive way instead.

Thanks God, i have not such like your neighbor,i and my family suppose your views and i also think your act is right,but she is always your neigbor,in my Chinese,we have a word,that's"A good neigbor better than a brother far off" so i think you try to find her better others. Best wishs!

I am so blessed not to have nosy neighbors.As you have said, your neighbor creates her own problems by not minding her own business. I cannot believe that that she is so arrogant as to tell people what to do in their own home.

hi Kalyni You are so right. Our homes should be ou r castles, our scantuaruy from the strife of the world. I have had some neighbors like that too and I always feel that they seem to enjoy upsetting ones peace of mine as if as they are in turmoil they feel we should be too.I think what you told your nosy neighbor was what she should have heard a long time beford. We each have our own ways of doing things as God created each of us to be unique and one of a kind. Even our fingerprints show that.When the nosy neighbor I had started telling me all that she felt was wrong wit th

hi Kalni no you did no wrong, I had a neighbor like that and she would immediately start telling me all that I did wrong in my own house, so I did like you I told her that no two p eople thought quite the s ame way and for me the way I did things was perfect for me.god was guiding me always. I also tried to tell her that she needed to quit criticizing others and take care of her own house.She refused to even listen to me so I , like you, asked her to leave. No I do not think either of us was wrong as this poor lady was in turmoil and seemed to relish making others be in turmoil.She also told me she had never been so insulted'and I told her it was time someone told her the tr uth. She had complained to me that she had no friends and I tried to explain why but she would not hear me out. Her husband had finally left her as he could not take her constant harping, and her children, all gro wn, seemed to be afraid to stay long with her. I felt sort of sorry for her but she was making her own troubles.

In this world each and every thing has a limit but in case of your neighbour she crossed the limit ,each and every indiviual has a right to take decision and u had taken. Absoloutly u take the right decision ,there is no need to suppport or hear or involve in wrong person,if she has feeled the insult so she deserved it.

dear maa, I don't have neighbor like her. But if given the chance that it happens to me,like your neighbor did,i will also let her out of my house. Take care maa and hugs to you ,dada and shubee

Someone really has to tell your nosy neighbor that she has to stop and you did just that. There's nothing wrong with what you did. She has to be stopped. These kind of people are the ones we shouldn't let into our lives. At first they would make themselves appear concern but beware, because in just a wink of an eye, they might be already running your life. Nosy neighbors are everywhere. What I do when I encounter one? Nothing. I don't look at them in the eye. Why? So I will not feel the need to smile or talk to them.

No, I don't think you did anything wrong. I Reither not have a friend then a friend that tries to figure out ways to insult you and everyone else. Some people are that way. They think noone is better then them and like to prove it by figuring out ways of insulting people.To me there is only one judge and that is god. Noone is perfect but him and everyone gets there feelings hurt when people insult the way they are. She wouldn't even like it if people did that to her. She has something that she does that someone doesn't like too. She isn't perfect just like noone is.

Thank god i dont have a neighbor like that if i did i would move.

i feel you pal. being nosy creates havoc to peoples lives. she can turn her bad doing into a positive one just like being inquisitive and help people's problems be solved and not interfering and cause more trouble. People have many personality traits. Some are good, some are bad, and some fall into both categories. To be inquisitive is one that falls into both categories. In order to learn you must be inquisitive yet sometimes being inquisitive can turn into nosiness. The trick is to learn to be inquisitive without being intrusive.

This is true, being nosy just creates a lot of problems in the long-run. However, some people feel that they're trying to help by meddling with the affairs of other people. Perhaps sometimes it pays to be nosy but I don't think these people would appreciate it if it was their life that was being meddled with. I could remember my aunt, her sibling (my uncle) just got married and since they lived in the same house (for a few months since they just settled and were still looking into potential homes) my aunt seemed to be nosy about every business the couple had. There even came a point where she was passing through the door of the couple and heard the woman scream and hurriedly called everyone in the house for fear of something wrong. Well, in the end it was just a scream of watching some horror flick and everyone panicked. To make the long story short, their relationship wasn't really very good because of my aunt being nosy. I think it's important to know your limits and if you really don't like any problems with inter-personal relationships both at home and at works, I think it's best to keep our noses to our business. Though if one is idle, she/he tends to meddle with other people just because of boredom. Have a great MyLot experience!

Are you kidding? Of course you did right!!! She needs psychiatric treatment. Having said that, she will try to somehow create a rift in your family now. Such people never stop..

Not only neighbours I stay clear of all those who disturb my life. As long as they don't need me and I don't need them I don't think there is anything wrong with this stand of mine.

I once had a nosy neighbor. This woman would call me on the phone when I was still asleep in the morning telling me to get up because she saw my curtains were still closed! She would tell me how much and what to eat, etc. Very bossy! I only wish I could have been as assertive as you were! I was under major stress, thanks to her, and the only relief I found was moving away. We are now back in the same town as this woman but thankfully not as a close neighbor. She cannot see my curtains anymore. Nor do we visit much. Although I still see her at church I rarely talk to her. No one appreciates bossy, nosy people. Nosiness can destroy friendships. It was not you standing up for yourself that made a break in your friendship with her, my friend, it was her nosiness. She may never see that and probably will blame you for the rift but you should not allow her to make you feel guilty. You were defending your family, as any mother should and would. If anything, you should feel proud of yourself for standing up to her. It is an empowering thing you did and I applaud you for it!

hi madam kalyani, Each and everyone of us has own uniqueness even twins has differences What your neighbor showed you was totally wrong no one has the right to judge or criticized others if she cannot accept your suggestion to her then better keep away from her you just did what is right. happy mylotting
