I received an embarrassing note from my neighbour and it got so awkward

"How do I tell her it's not my fault?"

A Reddit user has taken to the platform to share the contents of an angry note from her neighbour.

In the note, the neighbour is accusing her of keeping her up at night with some suspicious loud noises. But, the poster claims it isn’t her.

What’s the right way to go about it?

“I dread going to bed now”

“PLEASE pull your bed 2-3 feet AWAY from the wall,” the note began.

“I’m glad y’all have sex every night, however, I do NOT want to hear it or be a part of it. It shakes my entire floor including my bedframe. I have even changed the orientation of my room so my bed doesn’t share a wall w/ you and it STILL vibrates my floor/bed and I can STILL hear your girl moaning.

“Again, happy for y’all, but I have GOT to sleep. I can’t remember the last time I got more than 6 hours of sleep because your activities are keeping me up. I dread going to bed now. I sleep w/ earplugs AND a music speaker at full blast of white noise and I can STILL hear you guys. There’s been nights I have to sleep in my living room.

“Thank you for understanding. [From] your exhausted neighbour.”

In the post, the Redditor clarifies that the noise isn’t being caused by her. In fact, she can hear it too.

“I wish it was our bed was causing earthquakes, but no, it's just us sleeping. I’ve also heard banging in the middle of the night but only twice, so I can’t pinpoint what neighbor this is coming from. It’s probably an upstairs neighbor,” she wrote in her post.

“How should I respond?”

“That sounds like an exaggeration”

Commenters were quick to share their thoughts on the post, with many saying the whole thing is a huge exaggeration.

“That sounds like an exaggeration. 2-3 inches away from wall sure but feet? 😆” one said.

“Man I’d kill for at least 6 hours of sleep a night,” another added.

Others said they’d disregard it completely.

“I would do nothing. You are just living your life. You know what you are doing in your bedroom. It’s presumptive of the neighbor to assume you are having wild sex night after night. I mean really…who has time for that?” said one commenter.

“You got an anonymous note for a problem you aren't responsible for. It goes in the trash.” another agreed.

“I would go talk to them in person”

Some, however, said the poster should go and talk to the neighbour who left the note, if she knows who it is.

“Tbh I would go talk to them in person, if you know it’s not you. I think she would be more likely to believe you that way, and you can both discuss who it might be,” one commenter said.

“Let them know it’s not you but you’ve been hearing the noises as well. Maybe it’s someone in an apartment above or below you guys that has a connecting wall.” said another.

And if she wasn’t sure, people had ideas for that, too.

“I would tape the note on your door and just write “wrong apartment” on it.” said one commenter.

“I’ve seen a note feud between my neighbors before and I guess the neighbor who received the note didn’t know who it came from so they just left a note on their own door for the neighbor to potentially see. you could try that!” suggested another.
