I met this really annoying creepy guy today in my apartment. He was being all frinddh friendly with the neighbour who hates me.

He immediately asked me when we were in the elevator together if I rent or own.. who TF asks that especially to someone who you just met???????

Also he asked where I'm from cause I have an accent (speak some language there). I told him I'm from here and he was really annoying about it and didn't believe me.

Anyway I'm thinking he is planning to get me evicted with the other guy, otherwise why would he ask if I'm renting ..

Also I was carrying a bunch of groceries and left them on the stairs. And I took all of them up except my tea fell. So on his way down he was like "is that urs" and I told him yes but please don't touch it

AND HE PICKED IT UP AND SAID ITS YOURS ISNT IT I KNOW ITS YOURS HERE YOU GO

Like bruh I told him don't fucking touch it I don't want you touching my stuff!!??

Anyways what can I do next time I see him to fucking annoy the shit out of him

I was thinking of asking him how old he is and how much money he earns

You sound like you need some help. Like therapy help.

Based on the way you told the story and your responses to other peoples comments it seems like you might have some undiagnosed condition making you paranoid and aggressive at what seems like fairly normal neighbor behaviors.

Best of luck.

[–] IMALlama@lemmy.world 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Agree. They also made a post about getting back and their neighbor for making noises at 5am (early, sure) about an hour ago.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Jesus. As long as it's not "noises until 5am", 5 is a perfectly fine time to start the day

[–] weststadtgesicht@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, their world view is incredibly negative, and they harbor so much hate based on things that seem to happen purely in their mind. Sadly, they don't seem to truly engage with comments (other than criticizing the neighbor more), so I'm not sure we can do much.

[–] Majorllama@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

It's the internet. Not much we can do. They will read the comments and do whatever it is they are gonna do. Nothing we can do to stop em.

(Do lemmings just never talk to people irl?)

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 13 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I wonder why your neighbor hates you.

The neighbors are CIA Agents trying to use MKULTRA on OP.

you could try and be the better human, assume the other person meant no ill will and just move on with your life.

unless youre just not capable of that.

i think it was the doctor who said "try and be nice, but never fail to be kind"

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

What room is there to be the better person here? Other guy sounds like he was 100% fine and decent

good point, in this case it would be 'better than yourself' cuz theyre acting like a child (or troll)

[–] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 11 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

bro I cannot believe he touched your fucking tea like that I mean who fucking picks things up for other people that is insane

MY TEAAAA

MY SACRED TEAAA!

YOU'VE ACTIVATED THE CURSE!

YOU'VE DOOMED THE UNIVERSE

😭

(I mean I get it tho. I have germaphobia, I get the struggle.)

[–] andrewta@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Asking do you rent or own is just normal conversation. Nothing big there.

The part about the tea bag and your saying don’t touch it, then him saying I know it’s yours. This tells me he didn’t hear you say yes.

Why would asking a person how old they are annoy anyone? I guess women might not like it but a guy is basically never going to get annoyed by it.

Same for how much a guy makes.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 5 points 3 hours ago

You could do with being a little less disagreeable and negative in all your posts and comments.

Try guessing his weight and height, but shorter and heavier than you think he really is.

EDIT: I'm now sorry I participated in this. OP, I have a loved one who sounds a lot like you. His psychiatrist saved his life. I highly recommend you find one to talk to. It will help you. I promise.
