The holidays are supposed to be a joyful time.
If you’re ever going to do someone a favor, a holiday may be the nicest time to do it.
But what if someone doesn’t want to do you a favor?
See what happened when these neighbors did not see eye to eye.
AITA for not letting my neighbor use my yard so her family can park their cars?
My neighbor had company coming and offered to pay me a couple hundred bucks to let them park on our property.
They also said if their family’s cars damaged my yard they’d come over and fix it.
But he only saw problems.
I said no and we saw how cramped all the cars were and how muddy it was.
The wife came back and pleaded with me to reconsider.
She said that because I’d said no at Thanksgiving she’d had to call several relatives and tell them to make other plans.
She said that this ruined a lot of plans for a lot of people.
And he still doesn’t get it.
I don’t celebrate the holidays and I don’t know these people.
So I really don’t see how any of this is my problem or why I should care.
AITA?
Here is what folks are saying.
It amazes me how many people think it’s okay to put someone in that position.
Not a precedent you wan’t! Maybe for a higher price, though?
What a nightmare. No thank you.
I can’t relate to this at all. I need to pet their dogs.
It’s so bizarre to me. Why are people like this?
Park your attitude elsewhere, neighbor.
