Exposing someone's unethical acts of infidelity, not because of any moral qualms, but because of how it's affecting you… Does this qualify as chaotic good?.. Like, you're doing a net-good act, but for somewhat petty and selfish reasons. But—hey, a lack of sleep can drive anyone to extraordinary ends, and when something—like a noisy and inconsiderate neighbor—is annoying at the best of times… lack of sleep makes what would usually be teeth-grindingly annoying into something completely unbearable. So, whatever your motivation

When you're behind on sleep, you reach that point where something needs to change so that you can get a good long sleep and reset, but when you can't remove yourself from the disturbance… you need to find a way to remove the disturbance. So, that's what this disgruntled apartment dweller did when their neighbor started receiving late-night visits from an affair partner, who always materialized in the middle of the night like some sort of night-going boinking Batman. The disgruntled apartment dweller did a little sleuthing in order to uncover this not-so-super hero's secret identity, ratting them out to their spouse in order to put a stop to Bruce Wang's clandestine late-night visits.

    Font - Posted by u/IonicRes 2 hours ago 2 I exposed an affair because it was affecting my sleep. So I'll start with understanding what I did wasn't exactly "right" but I regret nothing. TLDR: my upstairs neighbor is having an affair and it's disrupting my sleep. So I found the wife online and messaged her, problem solved.

    Font - My upstairs neighbor has been having an affair with a married man for about 4 months now. I wouldn't care, but because it's an affair he comes over at odd hours of the night and they have sex very loudly (I can hear a lot) and it wakes me up/prevents me from sleeping. How do I know it's an affair? He's never spent the night and his car has baby car seats in there.

    Font - Some back story, I've had issues with my upstairs neighbor prior to this. She would throw parties on monday nights, she gets home at 2am from work pacing her condo and having loud phone conversations. She's 40 years old throwing parties with 20y/o and having affairs and living like a teenager. I tried to talk to her like a normal person about my concerns but she doesn't care and I've had to get the association involved to stop the parties. I hate her.

    Font - So I decided to learn some more about this mystery man. I looked up the license plate, found an address, searched the address and found a name. Took the name and did some social media stalking and found the man and his wife's profiles.
