Family want to force neighbors to stop showering at midnight because they wake up at 5am: 'The walls are very thin'

But how far would you go to make life easier for your neighbor? Odds are, you want to keep the peace. It's a lot easier to be friends with your neighbor than it is to be enemies. You want harmony at home, and if you're walking on eggshells at your own place, then it's time to reevaluate. If you can't do what you need to do in your own home, barring insane noise disturbances, then you might want to think again. You would hate to end up in an unsustainable situation just because you were afraid to stick up for yourself. That's what was happening in this story, though, when a new neighbor had a pretty out-there request. It never hurts to ask for what you want, but you also have to be prepared not to get it. But that's easier said than done. The neighbor wasn't sure if they should compromise their way into a new showering routine or tell their neighbor just to put up with it. There are many ways to see this scenario, and none of them are easy to navigate. That's why the neighbor in question wanted some outside perspective on their problem.
