We live next door to each other in ground floor flats with very small ajoining gardens - like 13 feet by 20 feet. And attend the same church. Recently there has been a dispute starting with their (I am alone) dog getting in and fouling my garden. That was resolved with garden mesh, but other issues have come to the fore, like their huge shed on the border and the piling up of various items against the fence that l don't want to see from my window, blocking my light.. They have not been very neighbourly before this. Speaking but no fellowship. We are in our later age. The husband has been verbally abusive towards me during this, and said some nasty things. I did lodge a police report in case of repeat.
So my question is, what about he church leaders in this? I have not found them helpful. The minister is treating it like two parties arguing so attempting reconciliation. He mentioned he thought l was 'not warm'.Well actually l have PTSD. There is some possible beginnings of dementia in the husband but one of the things he said made me think he meant to undermine me and he lied when he told his wife what was said.
What should be happening? I am not getting any support.
