A woman shared how her entitled neighbour has been making her life a living hell after she installed a small, wooden privacy fence so her dog can freely play in the back garden
A woman has slammed her ‘entitled’ neighbour for ordering the garden fence to be moved because it’s disrupting her views. She explained how she installed a wooden privacy fence shortly after moving in so her dog can run around her garden without bothering the neighbours.
Juts hours after the fence was installed, her neighbour, Linda, came out to look at it while giving off a “friendly new neighbour vibe”. However, it turns out Linda’s intension was far from welcoming her to the neighbourhood – with her instead keep a close eye on where the fence had been put up.
The woman said on Reddit: “She asked if I would mind moving my fence back about six feet. I asked her why I would do that.
“She told me it blocked her view from her kitchen window and she liked to look out at the trees, and that if I moved it back, I’d still have plenty of yard.
“I explained as politely as I could that the fence was entirely on my property line since I had the survey done, and moving it would literally give her six more feet of my yard for free.
“She said she had lived there for 15 years and had always had that view, so it was basically hers. I laughed, couldn’t help it, and told her no.”

Since then, Linda has gone out her way to make life difficult.
She added: “Since then she has ‘accidentally’ thrown her leaves and branches over the fence twice, and last week I caught her trying to peek over with a step ladder.
“When I confronted her, she said if I weren’t so selfish, she wouldn’t have to do it.” Seeking advice, she has taken to social media to ask users what they would do in this situation.
In response, one user said: “Record her and call the city on her a***.” Another user added: “Ask her why doesn’t she just move her kitchen window to a spot where she can get her view back.”
A third user said: “Get cameras and next time she peeks over, spray her face full blast with a water hose.”
One more user added: “Wow, the audacity to really come up and ask you to move your fence, like what? Like you’re seriously just going to uproot the fence and move it back for her? I would’ve laughed at her too.
“You might want to get a ring camera and point it towards the part of the fence that’s next to her yard.
“Just so you can capture her craziness on video because don’t put it past her to damage your fence when you’re not around.”
