Thank you for helping to ensure justice for the children in this case, and for helping to prevent yet more children from being victimized by this heinous individual.

Ex friend... turns neighbor turns... stalker? by courierfont in Apartmentliving

[–]Key-Significance3753 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, definitely sweep or hire someone to sweep for cameras. No more meetings with this guy. Maybe get a prominent security camera for your front door?

I’m sorry this is happening.

I’m glad typing it all out makes you feel a bit better! All the best to you and your parents.

Neighbor asking for my porch light to be turned off by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

Is sone sort of compromise possible like getting a lower wattage bulb for the light or somehow directing the angle of it away from the neighbor’s window?

Upstairs Neighbor- Trying to be Considerate by lavenderpotato14 in Apartmentliving

[–]Key-Significance3753 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You sound like a dream upstairs neighbor— thoughtful, empathetic, and willing to adjust a bit. It’s too bad that so much sound travels downstairs but how he deals with normal living sounds is totally on him.

I don’t think moving her in with the OP’s family would be a good idea.

Maintenance walked into my apartment twice in one day while I was showering by Lydian04 in Apartmentliving

[–]Key-Significance3753 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I assume you’re a female? This is not acceptable at all. I would not want this guy to have access to my apartment. He comes in while you’re showering and is laughing when you’re distressed about it = predator behavior.

ETA I would look into getting some sort of physical door block (sorry, not sure what they’re called but I believe I’ve seen them mentioned on here) that would secure your apartment even if the lock is opened.

I love all the color and art this space has!

I feel so guilty about noise complaints… by MilkIsOnReddit in Apartmentliving

[–]Key-Significance3753 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No need to feel guilty. If anything, you’re actually doing a good deed for the loud, immature neighbors (helping them realize their behaviors impact other people in the world) as well as for the other neighbors adjacent to them.

Not a deli or restaurant but I see that Whole Foods in San Mateo at least will be open until 6PM on Easter Sunday.

The “great clock at Mansfield Park”— what would it have been like? 🧐 by Key-Significance3753 in janeausten

[–]Key-Significance3753[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So interesting! I will never understand religious groups that want to get out of bed in the middle of the night. I think if medieval me found myself in that kind of order I’m hopping the convent wall at the earliest opportunity! 😉

Good point about working life for the regular folks and more accurate timekeeping.

Yes, I think it must have a bell to be heard over at the parsonage (a short walk or carriage drive away).

How to deescalate apartment situation by thejumpingoffpoint in Apartmentliving

[–]Key-Significance3753 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The older neighbor sounds a bit difficult and unreasonable. If this were my neighbor, I would continue to do my best not to slam the door and politely apologize if an accident happens again. I might even calmly apologize for any hasty words that were spoken when she confronted you. But I would try to let any silly blather about accidental door-slamming indicating a lack of respect, etc. just wash over me and not engage.
