When random strangers stick their noses in your business for no good reason, what are you supposed to do?

Well, there are several routes you can take, but this guy decided it was best to tell a nosey woman to stay out of his business.

Read his story below and see if you think he did anything wrong.

AITA for telling the female neighbor to mind her own business?

“So I went to my mums house to visit. My mum and I had already arranged the visit so she would be in at the time I called.

I knock on the door and no answer, I’m almost certain she’s in because her car is in the drive and she’s expecting me at this time, she cannot hear sometimes so of course I pause and knock a few more times.

As I continue this the neighbors pull up to their driveway next to my mums house.

It’s a late 30s couple.

Who are you…?

As I knock the woman says “I don’t think they’re in, mate” but she’s standing still outside her door looking at her phone as she says this not making eye contact.

Bear in mind it’s hard to get across the tone of delivery on Reddit, she said it with a tone that suggested to me “Get outta here kid”.

I respond “I can judge that for myself thank you” (with a tone back) she responds “Whoever lives here clearly isn’t in, mate”.

Stay out of it!

At this point her partner stands behind her in a protective stance, and why she’s calling me mate I don’t understand we’re strangers.

I know the situation better so I say “Mind your own business lady”.

At this point the door opens and my mum lets me in. The couple responded something but I didn’t even make it out as I walked in the house.”

Reddit users shared their thoughts.

This person didn’t hold back.

Another Reddit user said he’s an *******.

This indivdiual chimed in.

Another person spoke up.

And this Reddit user thinks they all suck.

Maybe not the best way to handle it…
