Unhinged Neighbor Sparks All-Out Suburban Warfare Over Constant Harassment and Petty Chaos

Have you ever lived in a neighborhood that was dominated by one busybody who had to be in everyone’s business and was generally a huge annoyance?

Yes…that’s not fun…

Is that an understatement, or what?!?!

Because it can be a total nightmare!

And this woman knows all about it…

Take a look at what she had to say about a neighbor who is WAY out of line.

Narcissist Karen that will go to any extreme.

“We own and are surrounded by farms with some small tracts of houses scattered around us.

Our neighbors kids are little jerks and the mother is toxic as they come at home.

These children are really something else…

Their kids raised hell in our neighborhood for a while. Chasing a horse several times on other peoples’ property, throwing rocks at neighbors’ dogs in their fenced yard, driving through our fence, throwing rocks at my kid almost hitting my wires car.

Kids got in trouble once in their life and 3 days later started a rumor at school that spiraled till they weren’t in trouble. We sort it out and they want to be friends only to start more trouble. I have tactfully pointed out her flawed logic and stood up to her. On June 6 she attacked us out of nowhere on her neighborhood chat group.

We can’t even be invisible and be left alone.

She finally had enough of this nonsense.

I told her why she acts the way she does and tore her story apart on the chat group. She was not happy with that and blocked the road. Apparently the neighborhood has banded behind me and they silently “fear her” from what I keep hearing from everyone.

I put up a funny sign as a way to get back at her. She’s so insecure it’s not hard. This is the only thing I have ever done to them because we have anxiety from their toxic behavior.

It’s pretty obvious who causes the trouble around these parts.

We keep to ourselves down here. Our whole neighborhood is the same. We may hang with our neighbors once a month to every 6 weeks. This lady thrives on social status and connections.

This makes her feel rejected so she must protect her insecurities. No one wants to talk to her cause she is two faced and turns on you when she feels like she being accused of something, so everyone takes the stuff and avoids saying anything to her to keep the peace.

We installed cameras that were a huge expense due to the distance we had to run them from the house because it’s gotten to be too much harassment from their boys.

She decided to block access to 4 farms and the obstruction was on someone else’s farmland. We pulled deeds and maps to show that she in fact has the legal easement on her property.

It never ends with these people!

They concreted the road and gated it off when they moved in and made their neighbor family member allow passage on her land. They are above rules. We sent her a demand letter to allow passage or remove the posts immediately. She tells us all to get lost and get a lawyer.

Well a couple hours later she calls the sheriffs department and says I’m prowling around outside her property staring at them. I was walking my dog on my own driveway and there is another property between us and the KAREN.

Thank god for cameras cause she tried to frame me in retaliation. Unfortunately they won’t charge her for first time offense due to financial resources with the county. I have to keep worrying she’s gonna frame me or get an order of protection on fabricated stories. They are so vindictive.

She figured out the easement was on her luxury property where they live and that we legally have right to it. So she does a 180 removes the posts on the neighbor where everyone has been having to get access.

Then texts everyone on group saying we see the easement BUT we removed the posts. We just didn’t want our concrete to get damaged. They paved part of the road to keep gravel off their driveway. She is only saying that now because she knows the gates will have to come down and open her home up to through traffic.

She had to throw my name in there saying I’m not going to get into what’s going on with so and so, it’s all so & so, you don’t know about him, then saying she had to get the cops down here because of me ”walking my dog”….

She’s totally unhinged!

Seriously lady? They saw my video evidence I was nowhere near your place!

I’m considering putting up a sign that I had made that states. YOU CALLED SAYING YOU NEEDED DISPATCH, BUT AN INVESTIGATION HAS DETERMINED THAT WAS A LIE.

Taking her driveway is what the land owners have decided to do. She’s been a constant problem with this neighborhood and we are talking her to court to get an injunction to take down her gates. This is bittersweet victory. I know I have more drama on the horizon with her.

Is she a narcissist?

What should I do with this situation to get her to stay the hell away from us?”

This woman’s neighbor sounds like a total nightmare!

You gotta feel for folks in this situation…it sounds like there’s no escape.
