A month ago, I moved into my new apartment in the neighborhood. But it wasn't all smooth sailing – I unwillingly got caught up in some "neighborly actions." On our fifth floor, we have very polite women, but on the fourth floor, there are those who like to make their own rules and disregard others, believing only they matter. A neighbor from downstairs came over. Turns out she's the grandmother of my son's classmate and is in her early fifties. She came to introduce herself and told me a lot of interesting things about other residents on the floor. I listened with interest. She mentioned she loves listening to music very loudly, and I replied, "Okay, it doesn't bother me." Then she immediately started lecturing: "Well, let it play on the playground." I boiled over. Oh, I thought to myself: "Why don't you just put on headphones and listen to your loud music that way? What makes you think you can tell me what's right and wrong? I didn't invite anyone over, and all the noise is within the permitted hours: from 9 AM to 1 PM and from 3 PM to 10 PM." Apparently, this lady has issues with the entire building. Everyone is obligated to tolerate her and stay silent, and then we came along... Oops, we showed up and disturbed her peace.
Вот, прошло 8 лет, и когда я развелась и была в ужасном подавленном состоянии, этот парень вдруг объ…

What made me laugh even more was the word "grandma" from a 50-year-old woman 🤣

Natalya Well, that's what she said. My mom is 57, she became a grandma at 46.

You told her right, and you should have continued by saying that while she's listening to music, her son is playing ball. For good measure, record her loud music on your voice recorder or video, showing the time on the clock. People like that might complain, but you'll have proof.

chukavina tatyana The funny thing is, yesterday she was listening to music at full blast from 8:30 AM to 3 PM. At 11 AM, my son played ball for about 15 minutes, then at 1 PM he played ball again. At 2 PM, she came over and started banging on the door because she said our games were disturbing her music. Well, good for her! At 3 PM, she stopped listening because her grandson, my son's classmate, came over 😃😃

Did you think about headphones or tell her in person? It's not totally clear. And what kind of apartment size do you have where you can play basketball??

Anastasiya Kiseleva Oh yeah, she answered above, she'd play basketball during quiet time in a heartbeat 🤣

Anastasiya Kiseleva There's no quiet time in our region. It's okay to make noise from 8 AM to 10 PM.

Anastasiya Kiseleva You're writing that all noise is allowed between 1 PM and 3 PM. But in the comments, it turns out you're noisy at 1 PM... and now there's no quiet hour at all? Why did you write about the limits then?

Our upstairs neighbors are so loud! It sounds like they're playing basketball or volleyball, or who knows what else. They can be noisy until midnight, and we can't sleep. We've asked them nicely twice, but yesterday the noise started again... 🤦️ I'm thinking more and more about moving to a private house.

sofia namgaladze What's the harm in bouncing a ball against the wall if one side is the street, the other is the kitchen, and the third is the apartment building's hallway?
