This is my situation. I posted about my furbaby dying about 10 days ago. I lived in a 2 bedroom mobile home. The other room is rented to the landlady's 19 year old daughter and fiancee. I am 56. They moved in here January and I am to move out the end of this month. I have as little to do with them as possible but I am cordial.

I have been doing quite a bit of crying over the past couple of weeks. I know the walls are paper thin so I try to go into my bathroom if I am really sobbing or cry into a towel but that first week I was crying non stop. I apologized to them about the noise and they said all was fine. But the first week I was a wreck.

Now for some reason my landlady contacted my sister(not ME) to ask me to please keep the crying to a minimum um "volume, because the "kids" feel bad for me. Does not matter that I have to hear their screaming matches and tickle fights.

Am I the only one who finds this a little heartless? Um, yeah I am purposely crying my heart out to disturb everyone else. I go into the bathroom, cry into a towel. if it's really bad I go in my car.

This is a woman who is a supposed animal "lover". She's been *****ing at me since the end of last month for every little thing. I am on a month to month lease, she was going to give me 30 days notice but decided to be nice and gave me 60 days. She actually gave me my separation notice 2 days after my dog died. I can't be out of here fast enough.

I'm sorry your landlord is being less than sympathetic. It sounds like you are doing everything you can to cover your crying and be cordial.

Sounds like she is just nitpicking and not understanding.

I would continue to be considerate and find a way to get out as soon as possible.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Just want to make sure I am not being ultra sensitive because I am grieving. I felt bad about the loud crying and get that I can't just scream the place down as if I'm here alone. But there's a difference between making annoying noise and crying. It's loud because the d*** walls are made of sandpaper.

Next time I am going to have a crying fit I will just go outside and the whole neighborhood can hear me sob. That or the car. I went for a walk before but it reminded me of where I used to walk my boy, so that did not end well.

First of all, I could not be happier to hear that you are moving soon.

Second, I am so, so sorry that you have to have such grief on top of the grief you are already going through.

Third, I have never heard of anything more cruel than the way you are being treated. Shame, shame on those people. They have a lot to learn about how to treat another - and a lot to learn about life altogether.

Fourth, Here's a big HUG for you:

misscath, I'm so sorry about the loss of your furbaby. I had to put my 18 yr old cat down on the 24th, about a week ago, so I know how painful it is. I'm missing her so much. I've never been so alone before. My heart goes out to you.

As far as your landlady goes, the nerve of some people. I can't imagine ever complaining about someone crying, let alone having the audacity to ask them to keep it down. It's so inconsiderate. People astonish me. I hope you are able to move away as quickly as possible.
