[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=JaylaChandler][quote=Anonymous]Every time I step outside, my elderly neighbor wants to talk. She will wave me over to ask one question or another. It’s getting to the point I don’t even want to leave my house! She sits on her porch all day long. She’s also easily offended so I don’t want to do or say anything that will cause her to become vindictive; I have to live here! Yesterday I went out to get the mail and she called me over to ask me about the sidewalks. This morning I went for a walk before I had to log on a work and she called me over to ask me if I heard a loud truck last night. The other day I was out doing some yard cleanup, fully involved in what I was doing with headphones, and she called me over to ask if I wanted to go through her books. I try to pretend I don’t hear her or see her, but that’s not always easy, especially when she barricades me as soon as I step out the door. I will also say things like, “Ok, have to go cook/work/get a drink of water” but she just keeps talking! Help! [/quote] Oh my God, what a familiar situation. It was a similar experience, but your neighbor is just kind of pushy. I was annoyed at one point by this behavior of my neighbor and at first I tried to explain to her that I was an extrovert, and I just physically could not talk to someone for a long time, as it causes me moral and physical inconvenience. But my neighbor continued to harass me anyway. After that, I said, "Please, I see that you are a kind woman, and I don't want to aggravate our friendly neighborhood, but I may not control myself at another moment, because communicating with people annoys me, so I warn you that I can be rude when they try to talk to me, even for example you and your desire to chat." It didn't work anyway and I had to just ignore her existence...[/quote] Oooo, this is one of those AI bots! [/quote] I am not a robot, beep. [/quote]
