Man Is Being Urged to Move Out of His New Home in the 'Perfect' Area After Learning Who His Neighbor Is

A man wants to know if he’s in the wrong after moving into a dream home in a perfect location that even his family is now recommending he move out of.

Taking to Reddit’s popular “Am I the A—–” forum, a 30-year-old man explained that he’d purchased a home in a beach town that had special meaning to him as it was where spread his mother’s ashes.

He got a great deal on the property, but it’s causing some issues after he realized who he was living next to.

In his post, the Redditor noted that the home he bought was a real steal since it was a bit of a fixer-upper. While homes in the area could go for as much as $800,000, his
only cost $325,000.

However, he has since learned that his neighbor is a former friend from college, who he had a dramatic falling out with.

“We were that close we were hanging out every day and got to know each other. We had a falling out as she stole a piece of my academic work and I faced an investigation from the academics and staff from higher up,” he recalled.

He noted that he wasn’t able to move in right away after buying the house because some work needed to be done.

Once he got settled in, he realized that his neighbor was his former friend after seeing one of her Amazon packages with her name on it.

The realization did not go over well with his frenemy.

“Ex-friend has now found out I live next door to her and her parents and banged on my door causing a commotion, all the neighbours came outside,” he explained.

He continued, noting, “I guess I’m a probably an a—– for letting there be tension in the street. But, it doesn’t bother me that I live next door to her. As far as I’m concerned, I’ve moved on from this incident with her, it’s in a dream location and I refuse to move at all because one person is unhappy.”

The man wanted to know if he was in the wrong, noting that even some of his family members were telling him it was a good decision to move.

Fellow Redditors rushed to assure him that he was making the right decision and that he should stand his ground.

“She doesn’t own the neighbourhood,” one person replied, adding, “You’re a reminder of something bad she did, and I expect she doesn’t like it. Not to mention, you put time and money into that house, and it’s in a perfect location for you. She’ll either get over it or move. You don’t need to worry about it. If she harasses you, involve the police.”

Another agreed, adding that the man was not “responsible for her feelings.”

Someone also took issue with the man’s family urging him to move, especially since he was now minutes away from where he’d scattered his mom’s ashes.

“I can not imagine telling someone to move away after finding a steal of a price for something so close to a heartfelt place,” they said, prompting the original poster to agree and say, “I didn’t actually see it like this, now I’m a little annoyed they had the audacity to tell me to move from where I scattered mum’s ashes.”
