It's been at least 6 months like this now. I want to leave a note, how can I calmly, in a non threatening manner, but sternly write her a note let her know that:

1. She's parking way too close for my comfort and that she has ample room on her side.
2. I'm a nice person, but you do not want to F*cking deal with me with if you somehow ding my door b/c of this

thats a tough one maybe a cone? but be nice she could be hot

that is the best advice i ever heard! im gonna use that

All good responses. Maybe go to the Manager's Office and see if you can get an end spot.

I like the idea of repainting the lines.

There is also those rubber bumpers that you hang on your doors, that is a sure way to let your neighbor understand.

Then bang her. But not in front of your chick.

Ugh, what is the forum coming too... What a crappy topic... Who gives a rats a$$.

OMMMG · 06-30-2012, 01:02 AM

Injure yourself (not too bad) so that a doctor can give you a handicap sticker, lol

DARK_M3 · 06-30-2012, 01:26 AM

How do you NOT run into your neighbor for 6 months?

DARK_M3 · 06-30-2012, 01:28 AM

Maybe she's thinking the same damn thing about you.

boymonkey · 06-30-2012, 02:22 PM

Talk to the apartment manager or strata manager. Get him to either ask the person to park in the middle of spot, or assign another spot that's more spacious. I've seen both done.

Ask her politely to park further away from you so that your 'overweight/ pregnant' girlfriend will not ding her car.

She's on a Ford Focus forum posting the exact same thread.

"So there's this M3 driver in my parking structure (probably male) and..."

Aries326 · 07-01-2012, 12:27 PM

I agree with one of the other posters. Be kind to her. Get her a thank you card. In it write down, "Thanks for being careful these last few months in taking care not to park too close to my car and avoiding damage to it. Please accept this small token of appreciation. Have a great day!" Put in a $20 gift card to Starbucks. She may even invite you out for coffee. Or you can put in a $100 gift card to Victoria's Secret. It might even get you laid.

grimlock · 07-01-2012, 01:52 PM

Live with it, it builds character.

48Laws · 07-01-2012, 02:06 PM

Wow. This place can be so complicated. Just like suggested, leave a goddamn note asking her to please give you a little more space when she parks. WTF is so wrong with that? Seriously, repaint a line...rent a car etc!!!

tshoww · 07-02-2012, 01:23 AM

the obvious solution is to dump your girlfriend :-) then it won't matter how close the girl parks because it won't affect you in anyway
