Confrontation

I just confronted my neighbor down the hall. I don't remember the last time I was as angry as I am right now. She denied it and laughed. I told her I would let the office know she's a thief and Encompass where she plans to work as a childcare worker.
No one messes with me.
I told my son just now what happened, and he told me to grow a set and confront her and not back down. By the time I got home from his place, I was ripping angry and ready to tear her a new one.
Not only did she tell me she didn't have them, but she also had the gall to tell me they didn't work. Of course not, not for her they wouldn't.
I needed to go to my son's because he's been trying to get a hold of me to get the contract to him so his friend could look it over before she met with me on Tuesday. He also told me her business partner is a notary in case I need the certified letter notarized, which is a good idea.
So after multiple tries at getting the contract to him or printed, I need a new printer, it finally printed out the contract and I got it over to him.
Now, I'm going to interact with you. Have you needed to confront anyone about anything? How did it go? Thanks for reading.

I'll find out on Tuesday. I hope I can. It was a definite admission of guilt. I caught her in it and told her, oh you know that do you. She closed the door in my face. One thing's for sure, anyone home in this part of the building knows she's a thief. I wasn't exactly quiet about it outside her door.

@sueznewz2 I need to get all my cards replaced, and that will be a pain. They're all my rewards cards.

So first she denied having your cards, then she complained because they wouldn't work for her! What a scam artist

I hate confrontation, most of the time the other person will deny any wrong doing and it just make you angrier.

Standing up for yourself is hard and uncomfortable. Last week when I went to our rental house I found that the renter intended to put gravel down for cars so far that it would go clear to almost the back steps of the house. I said no in a way that meant there would be trouble if he proceeded. Its probably mean of me but I see that house as venerable and with a 'look' that doesn't include a car lot.

@just4him Its an old house. The renters park on the side of the house, toward the back. Its a clumsy arrangement and I don't have a good solution. There is no driveway- the house was made when horse drawn carriages were still the norm. There is a carriage house in the back. I suppose a person could park there though the ground slopes some.

There's no driveway for the car? Where does your renter park? Is there a place in the back of the house, an alley maybe where he can park? I know here we can't park on the streets at night or we get fines.
I'm glad you let him know you wouldn't tolerate the gravel.

I am so proud of you. I have had to confront someone before. It is hard but you are better for doing so. I hope it works out for you in the end. I cannot believe she denied taking them and then said they didn't work. How dumb is that?

I hope you have calmed down enough now from the confrontation with your neighbor over the theft of your teaholder and cards so that you can take the time to look back over the whole situation and ask yourself "how would Jesus have handle things today. I pray you take time to search your heart and remove all bitterness and and anger from your heart and then forgive her (not that you associate with her as a friend but because we are told to forgive in scripture.
I would also mail her a card asking for her to forgive you for handling matters when you were in a rage of anger and that you will be praying fir Christ to draw her to see her error and repent and come into her heart. (Ask Him for the words to say for this is a soul in much need of him and how can we judge when we have been forgiven much ourselves
You can show her love without letting back in your doors.

I have confronted several colleagues at work. At that time, I was so angry and just wanted to storm out to avoid blurting out such hurtful words. I managed to stay as calm as I can to confront two of them and I was glad that I did. One admitted and the other denied but regardless. I think it's better that they know that not all will just sit quietly while they do the stabbing on the back.

Yes, she is. It makes me laugh that with all her crying on my shoulders since I met her, she actually laughed in my face and didn't think anything of what she did to me.
The great thing about that confrontation was how I felt afterward, total peace. It took me a while to stop shaking as confrontations are so unsettling to me. I'd rather not confront anyone about anything. Which is why my son told me not to back down but grow a set and confront her. I think I grew a set. It sure felt good when the dust settled. She admitted she took the cards when she said they didn't work, even though she's denying it at the same time.

This time it caused peace of mind. Thank you.
You're still dealing with that, aren't you? Will you be moving soon?
