This is going to be slightly NSFW but not explicitly and only in the very brief description of my problem so if you're faint of heart or young of age (or both) then you should probably just click on Merlini's stream because that guy is awesome.

My upstairs neighbour is a moaner and this is becoming a big problem for me.

I've been living in this place for about 3 years. In the beginning he wasn't a problem at all and it took several months before the first incident. I didn't make a big deal of it then because it was somewhat subtle and it didin't happen often. While it made me uncomfortable I could just put on my headphones and blast some music to ignore it whenever it would happen. It's also not something you really want to talk to your neighbour about because it's deeply embarassing for both parties (or at least for me).

However, steadily but slowly it got worse and it got a lot worse. Now it happens at least every two nights and it's starting to get so loud that it is even waking me up when I am asleep. It's 2AM and it just woke me up. I keep thinking that while I'm adult, if there were kids living in my room his behavior would be completely outrageous. Sometimes I just want to take a broom and knock it on the ceiling until it just stops.

I also don't know how he will react because while he is invading my privacy, I fear that he is going to think that I'm invading his privacy. I don't want to get into a feud with him, I just want him to stop being completely out of the line.

I don't really know what to do here, or I probably know what to do but not how to do it right or if there is a right way to do this. I guess I'm writing this blog post out of desperation. It's becoming a huge problem and I'm really starting to need some way to make it stop.

Probably would be easier if you could just talk to him and not to us. I think that's the solution to all of life's problems.

I'm pretty sure he doesn't want you to hear him moaning either.

Don't listen to this perfectly sensible horrible advice.

What you really need to do is write an extremely insulting letter and tape it to his door without revealing your identity.

You could also try moaning louder than him anytime he starts doing it until he gets fed up and comes to talk to you!

You should moan back and see if you can start a competition.

Honestly, I would just write him a note (even if you don't sign it he's going to know who it is from, IMO) as the others below suggested. I don't see an easy way to go about this.

Yeah, and don't sign it. Or slip it into his mailbox or something.

You could always drag it out for years, commenting on what he's doing, trying to figure it out discussing it with people, communicating in more and more indirect means, culminating into sneaking in, installing hidden cameras, to find what he's moaning about. Then recreate the same thread of being upset by him moaning.

Just tell him. It's not that embarrassing, this kind of thing happens all the time.

Drop subtle hints. Joke about how the wind sure was moaning last night, or how you think some forlorn ghost is haunting the house or something. Then maybe you can less awkwardly bring it up ^^
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

Communicate only through moans from your room until he gets it. And if he doesn't you'll create a new form of language. If he starts figuring out it's coming from the apartment below him install wireless speakers all over his room and moan into a microphone so he can't pinpoint the source. He won't think it's weird.

I suggest releasing killer ants and termites into the building.

It won't stop him from moaning, but it will give you bigger problems to worry about.

Failing that I suggest you straight up talk to him, you don't have to be explicit, just a "look, I've noticed you make a lot of noise at bad hours of the night, I'd really appreciate it if you could keep it down, thanks."

Advise police that middle of the night someone is screaming and crying. Disturbance of peace is a crime. In Hong Kong there is strict ordinance against making noise from 11PM to 7AM. Don't follow other suggestions. Personal confrontation is not advised because the offender may be drunk, violent lunatic.

I had to read his story twice to make sure I read that correctly. Maybe he's making a home-made porno up there who knows. Ffs guys shouldn't ever be moaning that loud unless they are literally being spanked into a painful submission or something <.<

I'd advice the letter route too. He'll get super embarassed, will quiet it down and you won't have to deal with any kind of awkwardness around him later on.

HAHAHAHAH. That is a perfect reference.

Also, OP, just talk to him. It won't be awkward after he stops, just when you talk to him haha. If not just use some of goswser's advice .
User was warned for too many mimes.

... speaking as most of the responders are male... and none of them are claiming that they moan... sounds like ur the odd one out here...

have never heard of a male who moans... thats usually reserved for women... men just make retarded faces, or flex all of their muscles in general


to OP

just slip him a slightly scary/threatening note like

In the middle of the night.... WE CAN ALL HEAR YOU

Signed - Your Next door neighbor

(u live downstairs right?)
with the Nick Cage photo.


although i thought the moaning competition would be a pretty awsome response also... you guys might orgasm at the same time making it really awkward tho...
