Envy And Jealousy by realtalk19: 8:48pm On Sep 02, 2019
We are just two tenants in the compound.

I met my neighbour in the compound when I moved in and as such was friendly and nice to her in every way.(she is a stark illiterate that has a ghetto,razz mentality and upbringing)

The landlord shuttles btw Nigeria and italy because his family is based in Italy.

My neighbour has a husband that visits often.

I am a single mum and I have a nanny for my kids so I can work .

When I moved into the compound ,I met my neighbour and her sister(and child) who stays with her just for company because she was the only tenant before I moved in

Initially out of a free minded spirit,we chat a lot and discuss experiences but don't do in and out gossips .
She was free to ask for things and I was always willing to help.

As time went on I noticed immediately the landlord travelled my neighbour and her sister changed completely and started acting strange towards me .
At a point I tought I had offended them and I called both of them personally to sort tins out because I don't hold grudges but even at that their strange behaviour continued.
They started seeing me as a competition, they taunted me most times expecting a reaction in return but instead I kept my cool and never fought them and kept being nice to them.

Sometimes my neighbour and sister give evil stares, laughing hysterically whenever I pass or show up and gossiped and tormented me at every opportunity. I endured till the landlord came Bak from his trip and they switched back again to their fake niceness and acted like all was well between us.

My neighbour is not working and also a full house wife.

She did everything to tanish my reputation before the landlord but the landlord already observed my kind of person and cautioned her concerning her behavious towards me. Since her plans of pitching everyone against me wasn't working, recently the landlord travelled again and as expected she switched and started her nasty gossip and taunting towards even to the extend of greeting her and she wunt respond, she make some false statements of faking my looks,not good enough to look good etc.

I decided to stop greeting her since she doesn't respond and completely cut her off from my mind.
Immediately I made the decision of minding my business ,my neighbour and her sister started their gossips and was also angry I didn't react to all they have been provoking me with but instead I ignored them and cut off completely.


How best can do you think I can overcome them maturely without any physical contact or exchange?

Isn't your apartment different from theirs? Do you not have doors separating you? Hmmm...biko ban your kids and nanny from playing outside, dry your cloths far from theirs and completely see them less the best you can manage. They will soon receive sense and get tired...indeed, illiterate jobless people have that behavioural pattern.


By the way, rule no one... Never get too familiar with neighbours. The regular "hellos", " hi" and every small talk in between would have been enough. Pele.

You are extremely rude for this statement. But to answer your question, simply move out.

Ignore them, pay them no attention.
Keep telling ur landlord abt their harrasment, it can't be good for ur wellbeing to live in this environment. Tell anyone else what they're doing bc what u don't want to isolate urself. They're being bullies, if their harassment worsens go to the authorities or leave. At your next residence don't get too familiar wit any neighbors

Thank you Zielle, the landlord is aware of their attitude and already served them quit notice once after the first harrassment but had to give her a warning wit a condition that her sister doesn't sleep over and has to leave but can only visit. But because the landlord isn't around,her sis starts sleeping over again and it gets worse once the sister is around.

Their illiteracy at this situation has a connection because even when I speak on fone or with my kids they feel am insulting them in English or forming because they don't understand and feel intimidated. And sometimes I interprete they feel am lying.

Thank you sisisioge , we have separate apartments, my kids don't even play outside or relate with her kids because they bully my kids a lot . My line for spreading clothes is also occupied by my neighbour most times they see I am about washing (spreading of dry wrappers on the line to keep space) I still go ahead to wash and spread on every space available and use my baby drier for the remaining clothes to avoid what the want(fight).


I already learnt my lesson,I actually thought they were good people not knowing they were pretending. Thanks. Noted

Reason I don't do in house friendship. I only greet good morning and i don't wait for response as i would be miles away before you respond and if you don't respond i will not know.

Start greeting them and wait for no response. Do this continuously and with time they will realize their madness.

Also, DO NOT involve yourself with any of your neighbours again. They are your neighbours, its not important you make friends with them. Enemies within are real.


Btw, thought you said you work? How come you have time for all this?

Re: Envy And Jealousy by Nobody: 8:05am On Jun 09, 2020
I see this is an old post. nevertheless it prolly hasn't stop the hate and beefs from your neighbors I guess.

My little cent to you will be to avoid and ignore them as best as you can. If possible, vacate that residence cos the fact its only two of you occupying that property does not make it safe as they may plot evil against "themselves" (not you) since they don't like your guts.

Please if you can, leave that place. Once someone dislikes you for no reason other than envy and jealousy, they may stop at nothing to see you hurt.

God be with you and your kids until you're able to relocate.

You're doing perfectly well. No matter what you do! Not everyone will ever like you. Sometimes is best to be on your own than letting negative people into your personal space, they are toxic already, don't stoop to their level.

You should be glad that they even showed you who they truly are, imagine if you have gone too deep with them thinking that they have your best interest at heart!

Since you're sharing a house just try and manage them, such people are everywhere.
