Will I Be OK?
Hi, Everyone,
Well, lately I’ve been feeling really, really, REALLY sad.
Just a little background on me…
I get along with most everyone, am kind and compassionate and lover of nature!
I despise confrontation on so many levels and always lend a helping hand whenever I can to friends and strangers.
I live in a neighborhood of a lot of people who are the opposite of me. They have no regard for keeping the neighborhood quiet and a nice place to be. Many ride their ATVs and dirt bikes all around the streets and in the empty lots by my house that are owned by the builder.
This has been going on for about 8 months. In the past, I have gone up to the people and said something along the lines of, “Hey, could you ride those somewhere else, I’d really like to sit out on my porch and relax, but I can’t because I have to hear all the noise and choke down the dust!”
They didn’t listen. So, the other day I had enough. I called the police. I reported that there were two people riding their ATVs across the street from me.
I never saw them arrive, but apparently they stopped at this guys house who has like 5 ATVs. Somehow, this guy finds out it was me who called the cops. He marched down the street to my house, knocks on the door and lays into me. Pointing his finger in my face…dropping the F Bomb all over me.
I told him to please speak to me like a man and not to shout at me. And he basically just kept yelling and trying to humiliate and make me feel really small for calling the police.
I have not been able to get over this incident at all. This guy is a piece of trash for confronting me in this way I am a female…who is currently living alone because her husband is in Iraq. I don’t know if he knows this or not?? I don’t know if he cares??
How do I get over this?? I am not used to adversity with neighbors.
This is the first time in my life where I’ve had a problem and it really has me down and out. I wish it never happened, but I had to voice my opinion and concern. I pay my mortgage here and deserve a decent, quiet, peaceful living environment.
Thanks for listening to me. I really need a hug :(
