‘I scared her away with kindness and boredom’: Guy traps nosy neighbor into an hour-long conversation to get her to leave them alone for good, it works

A young couple were living in an apartment that had a nosy neighbor who always complained. She would trap them in the hallway just to complain about them, other neighbors, and the entire building in general. They tried talking to the landlord about her, but there was nothing he could do. Finally, the guy thought of a perfect plan, he would end this unsavory relationship with kindness. Next time he saw her, he used that opportunity to trap her in a conversation for an hour. He simply yapped her ear off. He talked only about himself, gave every little detail about his life, made up some stuff, and made sure not to let her get a word in. After an hour he said that he had such a nice chat, he can't wait to chat like that again with her! Ever since then, the woman would run the other way when she saw him coming down the hallway. Nobody likes to be conversation-jailed for an hour where they have to pretend to listen and care when they actually don't. This guy didn't need to do anything rash, he simply had to yap. A beautiful and poetic technique to rid yourself of a next door Karen.
