I'm Being Called ENTITLED For Changing My Locks 2 YEARS AGO! r/Relationships

[00:00:03] Hey Waffle Gang, I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more Reddit Stories and if you do love a Reddit Story why not consider hitting that like, subscribe and maybe that notification bell too and let's crack on with today's

[00:00:18] first story. Much love guys. Now today's first story is coming from the entitled people subreddit Cheeky, from Matt C Sweet who says Being Called Entitled For Changing My Locks 2 Years Ago. But this is a weird story that just happened over the weekend and I thought you all might

[00:00:39] enjoy it. So Saturday night the Mrs and I are lying in bed trying to go to sleep when I hear some noise from the back door. Storm door opens and slams shut. I'm not fully

[00:00:50] asleep yet so I put on pants and a shirt I can find and grab my trusty shotgun. Oh shit. We move to the mountainside and most of the areas are wooded and living in such condition

[00:01:00] wild animals are an issue. We have bears, coyotes, raccoons and bobcats to name a few. So as I'm moving to the back door I hear a window break in the back garage. I look out

[00:01:12] and see someone breaking into my garage. I scream for the wife to call the sheriffs office. Around here 911 doesn't work well for breaking in. We're connected with a couple of counties and it gets confusing for them. We get quicker response by calling them directly. I'm now

[00:01:27] in go mode thinking some meth head is trying to score some tools for some quick cash. Got out of the house and notice this person's truck is still running. I did the only thing

[00:01:37] I could think of and took the key out of the truck and put it in my pocket and waited for the deputies to show up. Took them 20 minutes to show up. One was state police the other

[00:01:47] was a local sheriff deputy who were doing radar 10 miles up the road. Wife and I know them both. With my gun in hand I told them someone was in the garage. I haven't approached

[00:01:57] it yet but here's the key to the perp truck. They go in gun dawned out and deal with the situation. The dude was passed out on an old bench seat for an old truck I have by the

[00:02:08] tool bench. They wake him up and arrest him with little to no issues other than him screaming profanity at them. They told me that I can press charges and to come in on Monday to

[00:02:18] file the paperwork. He's not getting out anytime soon. On top of his breaking in he's been charged with a DUI. Yesterday I spent the day traveling trying to fix a window this asshole broke since no stores are open on Sunday in my local area.

[00:02:34] While in my travels I'm fuming at the fact that I'm having to do this repair on a piece of junk door from the 70s. My wife was telling me to maybe let him go with a warning but

[00:02:43] I'm having none of it. So this morning I went to the sheriff's office. The same deputy was there that arrested the perpetrator so I asked him how the ride with the dude was. This is the version the officer gave me. The officer says, why did you break into

[00:02:57] the garage? Perp says I was trying to get my stuff back but someone changed the lock. Officer says you know they purchased that place from Kevin 2 years ago right? Perp says what that doesn't give them the right to change a lock without telling me. Officer is like

[00:03:10] hmm yeah they can you haven't been in that house for like 4 years and I was the one who got you out of that house because you beat the hell out of your old lady. That's twice

[00:03:19] I get to arrest you on the same property. He replies but he shouldn't be entitled to change the lock so where else am I supposed to go? A little backstory on the property. We purchased it from Kevin who's a school board member and

[00:03:33] gave us a decent deal on the property. He had the property as a rental for his nephew for a few years. When his nephew started walking in his dad's footsteps by getting drunk and

[00:03:42] beating his girlfriend at the time, he evicted him from the property 2 years before we purchased it. When he evicted him, he emptied the contents of the garage as all scrap metal. He found

[00:03:53] that out Sunday morning when his uncle paid him a visit in jail. Kevin had other renters on the property after. He sold it to us because he didn't want the responsibility of it anymore. He's being charged with trespassing, criminal trespassing, breaking and entering, driving

[00:04:08] under the influence and property damage of less than $500. OP you are one cheeky so and so changing those locks without that guy's permission. What the hell? It sounds like an absolutely messed up person though but Narrow Butterfly says that reminds

[00:04:25] me I forgot to give our new driveway gate code to the meth heads down the street. Isopressure says oh dude you gotta get on that. Most Artichoke says I can't believe you changed the locks without telling him and you didn't

[00:04:37] even give him a key. Around here he would have been shot. He's lucky you hung back and called the cops. OP comes in to update the post and says so it's been a while. I didn't have a chance

[00:04:47] to meet with Kevin last Thursday so I spent the day dealing with police who just decided to bring the attorneys who's going to be prosecutor for this case. He was very impressed that

[00:04:56] I still had all the original receipts for all the tools due to last year's court case. All they would tell me is because of how much in tools he had access to steal, he would be charged with criminal trespassing, breaking and entering with malicious intent in attempt

[00:05:11] of grand larceny. Which all makes sense, he would not comment on the possible DUI charge, just ask for the footage of him driving in and shows me taking the key out back in the

[00:05:20] story I gave the original officer. They were pretty happy with the evidence and said I should be able to get $500 for the damage done to the door as restitution. As for Kevin, we had coffee yesterday and he spilled the beans on his nephew. I asked

[00:05:35] him if his nephew was the reason he gave us a good deal on the property and he said no. He felt most of the property around here are too overpriced and was excited about what

[00:05:43] my wife was bringing to the school and he wanted to make sure she wasn't going to struggle while living here. I'm still doing all kinds of work on the house since it was pretty much 70s-80s type set up. When the nephew was arrested he was put into

[00:05:56] the drunk tank and used his phone to call his uncle, he was still so drunk that the officer had to get the number for him. He then told uncle Kevin, get your ass down here and bail

[00:06:05] me out right now. Kevin responded with, I'll see you in the morning son. So Sunday morning he went there to have a little chat. So since he was evicted after his arrest he skipped

[00:06:17] town before his court case of assault and battery. His other cousin bailed him out and had skipped out on his bail. The cousin lost $750 on his bail but it doesn't end there.

[00:06:29] He asked him what he did to support himself. He wheeled and dealed as he put it, worked a few cash construction jobs and farm jobs. Where get this, he admitted to go back and steal tools, material and parts to sell them in 3 states. He'd been to West Virginia,

[00:06:45] Kentucky and North Carolina. He ended up getting decent at locating parts and selling them. This is the twist, one person approached him because he was looking for a couple of blocks and transmission. He was offering $5k for those parts and he remembered that those exact

[00:07:01] parts are in his old garage in Virginia and he was going to get them. He doesn't remember Saturday evening too well, he just remembered trying to use his key and it didn't work on

[00:07:10] the house and then noticed the door on the garage and tried to get in there since it never had a lock but I found one that works. That's when Kevin broke the news that after

[00:07:19] a month of him skipping town, he cleared everything from the house and garage, brought in a dumpster from a scrap metal and got $850 for all the metal found in the garage. So he asked him

[00:07:30] what did he do with the money, he said he approached his other nephew to reimburse him for the bail money but the nephew declined and offered it to the now ex-girlfriend. This boy lost

[00:07:41] his shit on his uncle and demanded he put up bail money. Then he asked if his truck was still at my place, he said no state police has it. He turned white as a ghost. The plates

[00:07:52] he has on his truck are stolen tags from North Carolina, he has no driver's license. He asked him if he was in trouble in any other state, he said he didn't know. After he would

[00:08:02] score he had skipped town. Kevin gave all that information to the attorney and for them to possibly check any other state and city for open investigation or theft. On Thursday he demanded for a bail hearing and it should come to no surprise that the judge denied any

[00:08:19] bail whatsoever. They asked Kevin what happened to the ex-girlfriend, after the nephew was arrested he went to visit her and wanted to make sure she was going to press charges so that the nephew might be able to get sober and get his life straight. He told her not

[00:08:34] to let nephew on the property and he was going to give her a couple of months rent free to figure things out. She ended up moving to Harrisonburg with her sister, she had a pretty

[00:08:43] fucked up upbringing and the sister was now able to help her as she has no contact from mom and step dad. They grew up in Elkin, WV and both trying to leave nastiness. Sister

[00:08:54] ended up getting better with education, she just tried to hook up with the first guy that could take her out of town. He hasn't spoken to her in 3 years so that's pretty much all

[00:09:03] the info he had on it. The top comments on that were said I'd love to know how much time he's facing in jail time. Unhappy reply said not enough. PA reply saying this guy

[00:09:13] has a domestic violence charge plus op listed and the DUI plus admitted to theft across state lines might bring federal charges. OP responded saying plus he skipped bail and was on the run for 4 years. What an absolute mess of a person. How many

[00:09:31] times can you make the wrong choice that seems like every single choice he made was a bad one? Now I'm going to turn this one to you guys, what do you guys make of this situation? And I figured we've covered one entitled people

[00:09:46] story so let's stick with the theme shall we? Our next story is from KeisaRound4389 and says sister in law is offended that she wasn't informed on my pregnancy. I got pregnant in November, previous to this I had a difficult miscarriage. For this time

[00:10:04] around I decided not to tell anyone of the pregnancy until I was 12 weeks along. A couple of times during those initial 12 weeks sister in law would ask point blank if I was pregnant.

[00:10:16] I always tried to politely brush it off and just hold my belly and say I love food, implying I'm just fat. Once 12 weeks rolled around my husband and I told my parents and his parents,

[00:10:28] I guess his parents told his sister but that didn't bother me too much. I figured it's past 12 weeks so it's not a secret and sister in law had been pregnant before so she knows how private these things can be. Well apparently I was wrong.

[00:10:43] My in laws had a gathering at my husband's grandmothers house and several times sister in law brings up how I'm pregnant and she called it. At one point she called me a liar because I didn't confirm with her when she asked point blank. I just kept looking away

[00:10:58] and people were giving her weird looks but not confronting her. Nobody was really even speaking to her, she was just talking loudly to herself. She just didn't drop the subject so I looked her straight in the eye and said, are you so obsessed with my uterus? Seems

[00:11:13] a bit weird. And she got offended and called me a liar again for not confirming with her when she asked point blank. I looked at her again and said, asking if someone is pregnant

[00:11:23] is a really rude question, I don't know why you think it's appropriate. But of course if you always want to be the first to know I can text you post coitally every time I

[00:11:32] have sex with your brother, that way you can even have an astrology sign of the future baby figured out. She looked at me disgusted and just kept saying it's wrong to lie and

[00:11:43] my husband and I and my toddler left. I burst into tears as soon as we left but my husband was completely on my side about it. His mom even called me the next day to say she spoke

[00:11:53] to sister in law to say she was inappropriate. Sister in law now refuses to look at me for any family functions. Easier for me? Absolutely. So this happened 2 years ago or so. My parents and I were in Madrid during Easter as tourists.

[00:12:38] We had a good morning and my mom decided to call a restaurant she had seen on google, add good reviews on it to reserve a table so we could eat lunch there. It took us around

[00:12:47] 20 minutes or so to get to the restaurant and when we got there we saw all the tables in the terrace were occupied. We were confused because my mom had asked to eat in the terrace

[00:12:56] on the phone call. Because the weather was nice and since it was a beautiful day, we wanted to enjoy it outside. Apparently a couple had sat down on our table without seeing the

[00:13:06] small sign saying reserved table. We were on it to get some drinks and a snack. They didn't have any drinks yet though so they must have sat down a few seconds before we arrived. The waiter sheepishly asked them to leave. Since we had reserved the table

[00:13:22] and the woman scoffed I ended up getting up with a huff. The man approached us, rolled his eyes and said right this is because you want to eat lunch here and that takes precedence

[00:13:32] over having some drinks right? Typical. My mom raised her eyebrows at him and told him coldly no sir you're being kicked out because we made a reservation to eat outside on the

[00:13:42] terrace and you took our spot. I had the phone call to prove it, you want to see it? And she took out her phone ready to show it to him. The man ended up grumbling and going

[00:13:53] away with the woman. Needless to say the meal was delicious and the weather was very nice. 10 out of 10. A family member bought me a couple of tickets to a local comedy show that was going on.

[00:14:17] Pretty difficult to get tickets for but they bought them from someone else because they had some spares. I thought fantastic, I can't wait. I was looking forward to it you know. Got there, had a couple of drinks, went to my seating and there was someone sat in my

[00:14:31] seat. I was looking up and down making sure I had the right seats, checking the seat numbers. There was definitely someone in my seat. So I went over to him and said excuse me I don't

[00:14:40] mean to be rude is this seat B12 or whatever it was. He just looked me straight in the face and went yep that's B12 and pulled out the tickets. I had a printed ticket, they

[00:14:51] had like official tickets. So I was like what the hell? I said somehow I've got the same seat number as you. They seemed to be confused, I was confused. I went to the reception to

[00:15:02] find out what the hell was going on. After about 10 minutes or so of this going on, the lady on the reception tells me that those tickets that I had were cancelled the night before by the person who originally bought the tickets. So it wasn't my family member

[00:15:17] who bought it off that person but it was that person themselves apparently cancelled those tickets. As you can imagine I was a bit pissed off and I looked like a right tit. But just

[00:15:26] at the same time as I was doing that, a lady came up and she wanted to get a refund on a couple of tickets because she had two spare. I was like hell if you're selling those tickets

[00:15:35] I'll buy them off you. I had to buy these tickets in the end which was no hassle and I really enjoyed the show. But at the same time there was a guy to the left of me who

[00:15:43] was offering me tickets and I thought he was trying to sell me at the same time. I was confused, I was flustered. He was trying to give me for free! And it turned out he was

[00:15:50] the dad of the guy who was running the comedy show. So he had some spare tickets anyway and it was really nice. He came up to me and we had a little chat afterwards and so did the

[00:15:58] main comedian. I went to a bar down the road afterwards and met him there and the main comedian came up and had a chat and said sorry about the hassle and went over our story. It was

[00:16:08] really nice in the end. But we still don't know if that woman actually did cancel the ticket or not or there was some confusion somewhere along the line. I really want to

[00:16:17] know but I'm not sure if I'm ever going to know. But let's have one more little entitled people story. It's got a little paragraph update at the very end of it but it's from Nagi who says Neighbors mother wants my husband's parking spot permanently. Our car was stolen

[00:16:33] in June and returned to us at the end of July. It's being worked on and my husband has had to tell our neighbors mother who visits she can no longer park in our parking spot. All

[00:16:43] is well and good until today when I'm coming home from some errands. This lady is on our stoop. I love a stoop. The only time I can remember stoop being used is in the Hey Arnold

[00:16:53] cartoons but anyway. This lady is on our stoop asking for my husband and if there is a way he can extend her parking allowance in our spot. She explains she is moving into

[00:17:03] the townhouse next to us to help care for her grandkids and she sees that our car is a lost cause. She has said that us losing our car was great so she can park closer to

[00:17:13] the townhouse and not have to park on the street. What I told her and what my roommate slash landlord has told us is thus. The car is being returned and instated in October and

[00:17:24] you have until then to make arrangements. This woman who I'm assuming has no sense of reality said the chances of our car ever working is nil and that we should just give her the parking spot. Our townhouses have assigned parking and guest parking spots are adjacent.

[00:17:41] I told her she has to wait till my husband comes home and talk to him. She literally said she won't talk to him and will just take the spot whenever she wants regardless

[00:17:49] if we get our car working or not. The car is currently at my husband's fathers being worked on. I know it seems petty but I'm considering calling a tow truck the next time she does

[00:18:00] this. Do it, do it, tow truck. Can we say tow truck like we do tree laws from now on? Tow truck, tow truck. And that's basically the only choice in this right because she ain't

[00:18:11] gonna see any logic in any other way. She's told you she's gonna be parking on your drive regardless whether you like it or not. You can just get stuffed apparently. But Opie comes in with an update and says neighbor who is the son of the woman has gotten

[00:18:24] involved and sided with us on the matter. He has told his mother to park in the guest parking spots from now on or do not come here at all. She also lied to me about moving in.

[00:18:35] Big surprise. So far I was given a blessing if she does it again to call a tow truck. We did have someone park in our spot but he asked if it was okay. He is part of a home

[00:18:45] inspection because one of our neighbors is selling his townhouse and was only there for 20 minutes. I've mentioned this before but there's a school down the road from me and next to the school there's like an area where there's a bunch of houses and drives and stuff

[00:18:58] and every morning people dropping off their kids come drive in and park on people's drives for you know 10-15 minutes or so and I'm always incredibly frustrated for those neighbors that would get right on my tits. And it's not like these people are asking to do it,

[00:19:14] they don't knock on the door and say oh do you mind if I park on your drive for 5 minutes or so. They literally do it. I saw someone once park on someone's drive and then start

[00:19:23] emptying out their car into their bin. I know it's a bin, it's better than being on the floor but to do that, the entitlement to do that on someone's drive I just find wild. The thought process that goes through your head. Cheeky bastards. But what do you guys

[00:19:39] make of this situation? Have you had yourself a little entitled neighbor drama? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments below. Now just a huge thank you from the bottom of my heart for getting involved in today's stories. Your love, your support, your time

[00:19:56] always means the absolute world to me so thank you so so much for being involved. Truly it's absolutely amazing and I will see you in the next one. Take care and much love.
