When it comes to being a good neighbor, sometimes there are limits. We all want to lend a helping hand, whether it’s sharing a few tea bags or watering plants for a vacationing neighbor. But what happens when a request goes too far?
One woman found herself in a sticky situation when her neighbor made an outrageous demand and then “threw a fit” when she couldn’t comply. After installing outdoor cameras for extra security, her neighbor asked her to adjust the angles so his house would be in view too. When she refused and suggested he get his own cameras, he threatened to report her to the Homeowner Association.
Concerned about the situation, the woman reached out to the HOA herself and was relieved to find out she hadn’t broken any rules. In the end, the neighbor decided to pull out of the neighborhood watch, feeling like neighbors weren’t looking out for each other.
Commenters on the post supported the woman, emphasizing the importance of privacy and suggesting the neighbor get his own security system. It’s a reminder that while being a good neighbor is important, boundaries should always be respected.
