Ok jokes aside, but I get a REALLY off feeling when I’m around this neighbor. He hasn’t done anything actually horrible but his energy is extremelyyyyy off putting. I can’t tell you what it is. When I first moved in and as I’ve lived here for a few years I’d catch him staring at me at the elevator - I’d look up and he’d stare straight at me like prey. I’m not imagining this cuz there’s no one else around and it’s a boring hallway. He’s married so I didn’t take it as romantic interest. I kid you not he looks like Ted Bundy but more pulled together than him. He’s also sometimes a little rude. He can tell I’m running for the elevator and once I had a suitcase and he didn’t even try to hold it for me or anything.
Between the staring and energy from him I don’t get much else. I try avoiding him but it’s a little hard as we’re in close proximity. Should I tell my building manager?

Woah, that sounds mega sketchy. Your intuition is probably right to be on high alert with this dude. A few things I'd consider:
- Definitely tell your building manager. Say you feel unsafe and uncomfortable when interacting with him due to his behavior. Even if they can't "do" anything, it's on record now.
- See if any other neighbors have noticed weird vibes too. Safety in numbers - maybe you can avoid being alone with him as much as possible.
- Carry pepper spray if it makes you feel safer. Obvs only use defensively if needed, but might give peace of mind.
- Vary up your routines so he can't predict/follow you as easily. Don't be predictable.
- Avoid eye contact and be polite but brief if you do interact. Give off confident "don't mess with me" vibes.
- Document any other inappropriate behavior in case it escalates. Times, dates, what happened.
Trust your gut - if something seems off, it probably is. Don't feel bad being proactive to protect yourself either. This dude sounds seriously creepola. Stay safe!
