Still, I don't think the problem really lies in the neighbor's music.
If you let yourself be so upset and completely thrown off by such a 'small thing,' then something is fundamentally wrong.
That has nothing to do with sensitivity anymore. I also don't like background droning music at all, so in principle I understand the problem.
You speak of hatred, you don't even like the house anymore, you just want to leave, etc.
I see a deeper problem here; a fairly balanced and content person wouldn't let it get this far.
Furthermore, you obviously can't even remotely manage to talk to the neighbor. I don't understand that either.
I'm sure that the step alone, telling him that he often listens to music and you fully get it and it ruins your day, will really help you move forward. Just having said it will do you good.
Apart from that, with or without help, you will have to look inward and explore what makes you so dissatisfied / vulnerable that it could come to this at all. Working only with the approach that one is just sensitive and others should be considerate is neither realistic nor productive.
I have already explained this 15 times now, so I will not elaborate again. Just this much: Because one is not sensitized to something themselves, one should not deny it to other people. I have undergone therapy (for a longer time) and it did me a lot of good. It also taught me that sometimes it is not me who is broken but others.
And before this comes up again: Yes, I have talked to the neighbor. Several times already. He knows that it comes through to us and that it annoys me. He has also turned it down, but it still annoys me. He believes that he is allowed to have music on at room volume while doing garden work. Legally this is debatable; local courts handle such matters constantly, I have no patience for that.
Anyway, if after 29 pages we could try to move away from my neighbor and back to my original post:
- Has anyone had concrete experience with selling a relatively new building and replacing it with another property?
- Are there alternative ideas to a detached farmhouse in Northern Germany? Since all this is currently hypothetical, I am also considering moving somewhere completely different, that is, to another federal state – maybe Rhineland-Palatinate / Saarland; that would be nice for the kids because we have family there.
- Would you look for an existing property or would a new build still be an option?
- How does one manage the financing? We obviously cannot sell a house and build a new one simultaneously, so we would have to do this one after the other (bridge financing?) or we would have to find accommodation elsewhere for a year?
