'The girl downstairs is insane': 35-year-old grad student feuds with overreacting downstairs neighbor over noise complaints

Dealing with a difficult neighbor is a non-confrontational people pleaser's living nightmare. 

Sure, we are expected to have to draw boundaries with roommates and folks with whom you share space, but when it comes to the people living next door, above or below you, minimal confrontation is always preferred. This is usually possible when both parties are decent, sane humans, but that's not always the case. In this instance, we have a graduate student who split time in a private apartment of her own and in campus housing a few times a week. When she was in the latter environment, she ended up having to deal with a downstairs neighbor who made a fuss any time she made the slightest bit of movement.
