How do you deal with rude neighbors who aren't aware they're being rude?

Once a year we used to buy a few cases of beer and soda, go to Costco and buy a bunch of hamburgers and hotdogs and then invite the entire neighborhood over for a cook out. We told everyone what we were providing and if they wanted anything else, including lawn chairs, they should bring it. It was always a lot of fun.

For a couple if hundred bucks a year we got to live in a much nicer neighborhood. Many times one of my neighbors would snowblower my sidewalk.

Worked for us.

maybe ask them if they have a couple of hours to listen to your religious beliefs (make them up if need be)

practice your throat singing on your karaoke machine outside

listen to slim whitman records at full blast

talk in your best gilbert godfried voice

I’ve had three bad experiences with neighbours as an adult indifferent homes we’ve lived in. I no longer make friends with or get to know my neighbours as a result of what I went through.

I once anonymously called cops on them at 4 am....said someone was trying to break in to my apartment. It helped...

I can empathise...

We're kind of the same in a way. Nice enough people, I think, but a little bit beneath the surface, well....

So, to prep this, we live in a fairly well-to-do area, down south, and our neighbours generally own their own business's and have trophy wives/model girlfriends etc.

We're working class...a lesbian couple...with a lovely child. The wife - let a spade be a spade here - she dresses very tarty (as she herself will admit), and is very bright and bubbly and chatty personality...

I know some of the wives just look at us like we don't belong sometimes...or that it's trendy to know a lesbian - that's the feel I get - and it does slightly annoy me at times. Samantha, she always tells me to ignore them and just '...live your best life', and I'd recommend that to you too...

🤔

Just don't talk to them.

Carefully ...

assumng it's nothing too obnoxious then ignoring it it prob the best option.

What are they doing that's rude may I ask?

I would avoid them. I have no neighbors.

Annoy them back.

There's nothing you can do except try and ignore/avoid them.
I hate shitty neighbors. 😐
