We have never had an altercation but we we did have an overly friendly "neighbor" who loved to talk, and talk he did....for hours on end. It was impossible to sit outside without his company. We figured he was lonely so we tried to accommodate his need to chat,but after several days of listening to his entire life story told in intricate detail we kindly told him we needed to have some privacy. Can't remember exactly how my DH addressed him but by that afternoon he was talking up a new camper.
