Today, I acted like I always do when I'm alone in my seemingly sound-proof apartment. I sang loudly, talked back to the TV, used my vibrator. Later, in the silence of the night, I heard my neighbor next door YAWNING. FML

Today, I wore noise-canceling headphones while cleaning my apartment. Apparently I'd been singing at the top of my lungs for nearly an hour, because my neighbor knocked on my door just to ask if everything was OK. FML
Today, my neighbor had a word with me for being "loud in the bedroom" last night. I haven't had any action for two years now, but I was too happy that she thought I'd got lucky to tell her the truth. So what was I really doing last night? Trying to sing like Christina Aguilera. FML
Today, I was home alone and I started to sing Halo by Beyonce. I was starting to get into it and began singing with more passion until the phone rang. It was my neighbor begging me to please shut the hell up. FML
Today, I was so lonely, I tried to get into bed noiselessly while pretending I had a boyfriend asleep in it. FML
Today, I was alone in the kitchen doing the dishes, and I started singing along to my favorite song when it came on my playlist. However, unbeknownst to me, my neighbors were having a barbecue next door, and they cheered and applauded when I'd finished. I’m never singing again. FML
Today, I came back to my dorm only to hear my neighbor having loud sex. I thought I was just thinking when I said, "At least do it against the other wall," but when I was left later on, he walked by, apologized and said that he thought I wasn't home, and promised to be more quiet next time. FML
Today, I woke up to the sound of my neighbor pleasuring himself. FML
Today, I finally had some alone time to relax and watch a movie. As soon as I pressed play, my neighbor started blasting their music so loud I could feel the bass in my chest. I tried calling the landlord, but they didn't answer. I ended up watching the movie with subtitles while listening to my neighbor's music. FML
Today, I learned that my apartment's walls are thin enough for my neighbors to hear my vibrator. I've lived in this apartment for three years. I've been single and horny for all of them. FML
Today, I was home alone, blasting music, dancing in my underwear, singing into a wooden spoon. I turned around mid-performance to see my landlord standing in the kitchen. I’d forgotten about the maintenance appointment I'd scheduled. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What gave you the idea that it was sound proof? The lack of complaints? Maybe the yawn was a sign that you need to spice up the vibrator show, just saying.

Was your window open? That pretty much voids any sound proofing. If both your and your neighbor's windows were open in a quite night, no wonder you can hear everything.

The neighbors may not have been home and were at work. Which was why you never heard anything until late that night.

Ah well, if it was annoying then, they'd have complained by now. Also, it might just be that you had a window open or something.

Don't be surprised when you find a hat with a dollar or two in it in front of your door. Also... Kinki

Actually, Kinki is my girl friend, and I'd be pissed off if she showed up at OPs door step, especially since the hat and the dollar are mine.

Maybe you should get a louder vibrator, so there's no chance you'll hear what they're doing while they listen to you?

It's an apartment. What makes you think someone is going to spend tons of money on sound-proof walls in a building they own to make money? YDI.

Yeah, definitely this. I've only ever seen remotely sound-insulted apartments when it came to high-priced ones. Or sometimes reaaally old ones, when they used strong construction materials (I'm talking about a high-rise from the early part of the 20th century in a big city). But anything from 1960 and on, unless you're paying $900 or more a month for a 1BR, it's probably not even remotely sound-proof.

Depends where you live... Most apartments in LA go for over 1300.. At least in my area.

lmao, 900 a month for a one bedroom is average in some areas.

I don't think an open window would let in sounds from next door. Unless they had back to back windows from the side,

This was meant to reply to Cinn. ******* comment bug!

An open window can make a lot of difference. Especially if the neighbour had theirs open as well. Though I think it would be more likely if the neighbour had opened their window... It was a possibility! :P

Maybe your neighbour just yawns loudly. >.> Or maybe you put on a horrible show and he was kindly letting you know.

I suspect foul play here. Something tells me Mr. Neighbor Man was under your bed the whole time.
