Today has been horrible and can die in a fire.
I have lived in my apartment for about 10 months. My neighbor has played their music very loud that I can hear it throb in my apartment. I have kindly knocked on their door, to which they never answered. I have knocked on the shared wall, to which they have turned up their music louder. I have banged on the wall. I have beat on their front door. And now I’ve taken to yelling (“turn your fucking music down”) twice as I walk my dog past where their patio door is open.
During all this, I’ve reached out to my complex office multiple times to ask them to deal with it when I haven’t seen results trying to resolve it myself. They have told me the other tenant claims they aren’t playing anything or that they are “handling it.” The office has also told me at least twice that I live in an apartment and essentially this is a fact of living in one, they can’t do anything about thin walls.
Today, they emailed ME a complaint that I need to stop hitting walls, kicking doors (okay, I have done that to their front door bc hitting it hurts my hand lmao), and cursing at them “from my patio” (technically incorrect). They also told me to consider a 4th floor apartment (note: I lived 3 years in a 4th floor unit until I moved into my current one 10 months ago specifically to be on the first floor. The person I’m complaining about is next door, not above). They also said something about “wood and stick building” reemphasizing they can’t do anything about the construction.
The absolute audacity to make me feel gaslit, like I’m the bad person here when I have emails FROM APRIL asking the complex to do something. I’ve also called security twice after 10pm to complain about noise. It never stops immediately and it always happens again. The fact that my neighbor will not acknowledge my existence face to face (but maybe turn their sound up louder when I have tried to engage them) and the office is extremely condescending.
I’m furious.
