I hear you. At my old unit I must have seen at least four different neighbours naked. I actually left an anonymous letter for one of them, as her daughter was only about 12 and I could see straight through to her bedroom. Thankfully, they got curtains that afternoon. My ex-wife also saw one of my neighbours letting hookers into his townhouse on multiple occasions, but that was across the street, and I never saw anything. Not a well-designed residence, my former home.Back when my dad and I were living in our house (in the '90s) the neighbor decided to get back at me for complaining about her loud stereo at 8 am. So she left a nasty note (handwritten) in the mailbox complaining about my having the gall to have the light on in my bedroom at night. She carried on about the fact that my room was upstairs, her bedroom was downstairs, so that must mean I was spying on her...
Sheesh. For one thing, there's not much that ever went on in a neighbor's house that could shock me after accidentally catching a glimpse of the neighbor on the other side parading around his bedroom naked (his light was on, mine wasn't, and I'd just come up the stairs and that was the sight that greeted me). For another, I don't actually care what goes on in a neighbor's bedroom. For a third thing... if people are so paranoid about people peeking in their windows, why do they insist on having sheer curtains?
And for those wondering why I kept looking in these windows; I had a home office, and my desk was next to my window. It had to be, due to the location of power outlets in the room. So unless I wanted my own curtains closed 24/7, I caught glimpses of the great outdoors every time I looked up or stretched.
