"DEAR CAN'T SLEEP: At this point, your neighbor has already created an ongoing conflict, so it is reasonable to involve the police. Most neighborhoods have noise ordinances. Check to see if there is one in place for where you live. You can also call 311 or visit lacity.gov/myla311 and report your concerns. Document as best you can when and how often your neighbor blasts music at night. The police should send someone to investigate."
"I love her, but whenever we make plans, even for just a day trip or a dinner, she leaves the logistics to me, and it's frustrating. When I go on vacation, I prefer for the other person to help with planning. I want traveling to feel like a shared experience, not another responsibility. She keeps pushing that we need to take a trip together, but I'm hesitant because I don't know how to be honest without hurting her"
An upstairs neighbor plays loud music into the night despite requests to stop and building management fails to enforce rules. Document dates, times and frequency of disturbances, check local noise ordinances, call 311 or the police and request enforcement; police or municipal services should investigate. A friend repeatedly insists on traveling but leaves all planning to the other person, causing frustration. Express clear expectations about shared planning responsibilities, communicate honestly to avoid resentment, offer specific roles or alternatives for the trip, and decline travel if core preferences and boundaries cannot be met.
