Dear Kate,<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
I live in a crowded neighboorhood on the outskirts of St. John’s where the houses are very close together.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
For some of the houses, you can hear your neighbors when they walk in their homes. This is where I grew up and it has become part of the life.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Despite the closeness, people have always been able to maintain relative privacy.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Recently, a couple, not so young, moved in next to the house I am renting. They appear to have an active sex life which Is not my business really.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However, I have noticed that this couple leaves their light on and window open when they are doing it. Their room is right outside of my own and on more than one occasion\u00a0I have seen them doing the nasty.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I really would prefer not to see that. I really wonder why they don’t\u00a0just close their window or just\u00a0turn off the lights. The noise\u00a0I can drown out with my headphone but I cannot help but looking out my\u00a0window from time to time.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Do you think they are sending me a message by doing this?\u00a0I wonder if it’s deliberate. Should I tell them to tone it down?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I need your take on this Kate.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Peeping<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

Hello Peeping<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Most people I\u2019m sure have had a situation where they either heard their neighbor or roommate having sex next door.<\/p>\n

But to see them is taking it a notch up.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

You should just politely let your neighbor know you can hear them.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Maybe if you’re too embarrassed to tell them face to face, you could pop an anonymous note through their door.<\/p>\n

There is nothing illegal in having sex with your lights on or being very noisy, to say the least.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

So, if they take no heed to your complaint, then you need to begin to find ways to work around it.<\/p>\n

For your sake, I hope these episodes last no longer than twenty minutes.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

And no, I don\u2019t think they are trying to send you any message because as you claim, the neighborhood is crowdy and may people live in the area.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

I, however, think they are just two grown freaky people who are too drenched in their sex life to even consider people like you, who are offended by the moans of passion and lack of privacy.<\/p>\n

Best,<\/p>\n

Kate<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
