When I lived in my last apartment, I never really got to know my neighbors.
But I definitely got to HEAR one of them plenty.
I was awoken on many a night by their amorous encounters, and used to imagine taping a note to the front door suggesting that if she was THAT loud she must be faking.
Living in such close proximity does invite an interesting brand of conflict and awkwardness.
Recently, people shared their most uncomfortable interactions with their neighbors.
Some were hilarious, and a surprising number of them centered around intimate activities.

So. Much. Awkward. Seriously, people can be pretty inconsiderate, but also, as a species we’re not very good at communication.
