There are several reasons why a neighbor may appear intrusive. Some people may be too self-absorbed or suffering from mental health concerns, whereas others may be overly interested or nosy.

The issue of irritating neighbors is especially prevalent in apartment complexes, where inhabitants live close together and can unknowingly inconvenience one another. Consider Vasily, a neighbor on the third floor who has been renovating his apartment, resulting in regular noise disruptions in the morning. While his behaviors may not violate any laws, they are clearly irritating to his neighbors.

In rural locations, troublesome neighbors may be less common, but regardless of location, most of us know someone who has a habit of disrupting the calm. Perhaps you have a buddy like Vasily who has a habit of turning up at inappropriate times, intruding into others’ affairs, and generally generating discomfort with their behavior. So, where is this troublesome neighbor? Can you identify the second person in this scenario?
