The Karen Next Door
My neighbor Karen’s actions had a negative impact on our lives, especially during her divorce. His dog would freely roam near my child, causing stress and concern for their safety. Additionally, she damaged my garden and started parking in our driveway without permission. On one occasion, we found our car’s windshield shattered because she had thrown a log at it.
When I finally addressed the situation with her, she responded dismissively and rudely. That was when I realized that I couldn’t let things continue this way. The next morning, as she angrily shouted at me from my doorstep, I calmly silenced her with just one sentence.
