His Neighbor Won’t Stop Parking In His Driveway And Tries To Manipulate Him When She Tells Her To Stop

When one baby has a toy another baby wants, they may steal it.

You can put money on it.

Many of us outgrew this entitlement, but not the neighbor in this story.

See what she is trying to get away with.

My neighbor thinks my driveway is her free parking spot.

I live in a townhouse with a small driveway, just big enough for my car.

My next-door neighbor doesn’t have a driveway and has to park on the street, which is fine, except she’s decided that my driveway should be her backup spot whenever she wants.

Excuses have entered the chat…

It started off as an “emergency” situation a couple of times, like she had people over or street parking was tight.

I didn’t say anything at first because it seemed temporary, but now it’s almost a weekly thing.

She’ll park in my driveway without asking and just says, “I knew you wouldn’t mind” when I confront her.

Then it gets even more over the top.

The last straw was when she blocked me in one morning while I was running late for work.

I asked her (again) not to park there, and she actually had the nerve to tell me I was being “unneighborly” and “selfish” for not sharing my driveway.

I’m honestly at a loss—she’s acting like I’m the one being difficult here!

Here is what folks are saying.

This is what I would do.

Honestly? I wouldn’t be surprised.

Nice. I bet she is super cheap.

Definitely. She’ll try other things next.

What a shame to have such a nightmare neighbor.

Too many people feel their pain.
