‘I live alone, I cannot stress enough how quiet I am’: Anxious upstairs tenant who tiptoes through life gets hit with an excessive noise complaint from a new downstairs neighbor despite barely making any sound – FAIL Blog

I’m not really sure how this came to be, but I have the privilege of living in a building with neighbors who respect each other’s right to actually live in the apartment they live in. So if someone celebrates something, all it takes is a short text messagein the group chat saying “Hey! It’s my birthday, hosting some friends over, so it might get a little loud. If it crosses the line, please let me know, and either way, it’ll end by midnight.”

That’s it, magic, who knew communication between human being liveing in the vicinity of each other could be so enriching and positive?!
