Snoring Neighbors

[AdamGB]

I don't remember if i made a thread about this before, so forgive me if i did, but i have a dilemma.. I sleep at my girlfriends apartment 5/7 days of the week as i basically live there, and my school is closer from her apartment then from my house..

So, a new group of people moved in upstairs not too long ago, and this one kid snores SO LOUD that it keeps both of us up.. I've banged on the ceiling, you hear him wake up, and then within a few minutes, he's back to sleep and snoring again.. So.. we got ear plugs, and it works to an extent. Anyway, we learned to live with it and try to go to bed a little earlier then normal to avoid having to deal with it..

but NOW, we have a new neighbor right next door to us.. previously no one lived there so it was great because when we had people over there was no one to disturb.. but now there is an older lady that lives there, and what do you know? last night she was snoring her brains out.. So i banged on the wall, and basically same thing happened as the guy who lived upstairs, but i kind of feel bad cause i don't want this lady to have a heart attack or something..

does ANYONE have ANY sort of suggestion? I mean, i don't mind banging on the walls to wake them up, because just the same, they're keeping us up.. but that tactic has proved ineffective.. I would hate to confront someone about that, but it seems like that is the only way.. I wouldn't really know what to say..

lol? I love the attitude?! yeah they're keeping you up... but you're doing it on purpose!

That is bizarre, I'm a broke college student living in a 400 dollar a month apartment and I'm like Bilbo, I don't even know if I have neighbors. When I first moved in one morning I thought they were having sex but it turns out my coffee maker just makes a kind of odd moaning noise.

But anyway to hear people above you snoring is odd to say the least.

well adam, i think of it this way.. chances are that when i bang on the wall they just SHOOT up out of bed wondering what woke them up.. so really all i'm concerned with is the fact that they were woken up against their will.. the same thing that happens to me because of the snoring


and oumafan, you're right.. it's one of those things that you take for granted.. you shouldn't expect to hear your neighbor that lives above you snoring, which is why it sucks so much.

it's weird, I'v got loads and brothers of sisters... I've a got a twin and whilst he really gets bothered by snoring etc I can shut stuff like that out. You'd think given that we're used to it cos there's 1000s of fuckers running around here + were' twins that it wouldn't be like that
