{ Neighbor-Advice: Nosy Neighbors }
We recently moved into a new home and are working on fixing it up.Everytime we are outside doing anything our neighbors come over with the constant why and what for questions.They also find it necessary to point out that we are doing everything wrong and should be more concerned about the two large trees on their property falling and hitting our house(they want us to pay to have them removed)When we are not outside they will often send their granddaughter over to peek into our windows to see what we're up to.Is barbed wire my only solution?
Dear Nosy Neighbors,
I can imagine that it must be annoying to be bombarded with questions when you just want to come home and relax.
My suggestion to you is to "kill them with kindness". I use this method with most people who do annoy me. I am so nice and polite to the person - that I may become annoying to them as well. I find that the people tend to bug me less - and everyone is a little happier in the long run.
If you would like to learn a little more about how to "Kill them with Kindness" - see the "Kill them with Kindness Blog" (http://killthemwithkindness.blogspot.com/).
Good luck and let us know what happens!
