'Entitled neighbour says she has a right to my parking space – so I got my own back' – Express

She explained how she and her family recently moved to a new property with enough space to park three vehicles on their driveway.
But after noticing they don’t have three cars, her new neighbours started questioning her over the spaces, wanting to know whether they could make use of them.
Taking to Reddit, she said: “From the very beginning we have had both neighbours to the sides of us immediately start hounding us about if we are going to use all of our parking spaces. Our house has an extended three parking space lot on the back of it.
“Well, both neighbours want to use ours for free. They would harass us every time they saw us. from the moment we moved in for a full 3 days of telling them no we finally contacted the landlord and he called them and put a stop to it.”

However, it turns out the landlord didn’t do anything to resolve the situation and her neighbours continued to harass her about the extra parking spaces.
She added: “About two weeks ago, my family and I were getting out of the house and doing a little bit of shopping. We come back to find a large truck trying to maneuver a trailer through the alley near our spaces.
“It blocked us from driving into our space and we sat there for a solid 10 minutes watching them slowly move the trailer into one of our parking spots.
“One of the guys directing the truck came over to see if we need to get past but we informed him where they were parking was our house and they had no permission to do so. He looked a bit shocked and said, ‘Oh, the lady said we could park here’.”
With that, the woman started laughing and corrected him, saying she’d told them multiple times not to park on her property.
She added: “No one came to ask us at any time if they could use our spots and we had been there for a full month at that point.
“They pull out and we pull in and I thought that would be the end. Nope. Five minutes later an entitled woman come strolling over with her young child in tow and wants to speak with me. I go outside and now she wants to ask me if they can park.”

The entitled neighbour explained how she needed to use her driveway because she’s having landscaping done and it’s preventing her from using her own. She then tried to shame her for ‘not being very neighbourly’ when she again refused her request.
Annoyed, she decided to give her neighbour a taste of her own medicine, saying: “You are mad because you thought you could use someone else’s property without their knowledge or consent and then play the victim when you are told no. Grow up”
She added: “She stormed off with her kid in tow, mad about not getting her way. I called my landlord about it too, so if there was some kind of arrangement made between the two of them, we were never made aware.”
Commenting on her post, one user said: “I’m petty and if I was in this situation I would park sideways and make sure I was in all three spaces every time I come home.”
Another user added: “I swear, It’s absolutely impossible for some people to take no for an answer. Your neighbours were definitely a bunch of spoiled brats as children, And as it turns out, as adults too.”
A third user said: “Technically I don’t believe the landlord could even give them permission to use the spaces. They are entitled to you and you alone, so long as they are listed as part of the property in the rental agreement.”
