“He might be a loner!Maybe he didn't have families or he's depressed and trying to make friends to stay alive. Also be careful, talk to him like an adult. Tell him to chill or whenever he's coming tell him you're busy that you'll see him later. Try to talk to him in the compound.”

@Ajolarr reacted:

“Better to be safe than sorry. Someone rushing or forcing a relationship is usually a red flag. Stop allowing to come to your house anyhow while you observe him and decide if he's okay.”

@Babydollreedah reacted:

“You're right to be suspicious. If you don't want to be friends with him, it's okay. Relationships happen swiftly, it's not forced. He seems to be forcing the friendship on ya'll. That's wrong. Just tell him you don't want to be friends. Stop him from coming into your place.”

“It's not too much, you've to dispel your doubts. Giving your time, space and emotions to strangers, in my one view is the most scariest thing to do. Don't loose-guard and stay up.”

Man in tears as neighbour secretly relocates to Germany

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian man, Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne, has exposed the unenviable attitude of a neighbour who duped him financially. The young man lied about his landlord evicting him from his house and Kingdavid decided to assist him.

He offered him accommodation and for three months, he gave him money daily to fend for himself. On a particular day, the young man got up and claimed that he was going to leave for another state because he was tired of the frustration. Kingdavid tried to change his mind but it didn't work. After he left, he tried reaching him to no avail.

Kingdavid had to call his landlord who shockingly said he never asked him to move out of the house. Upon investigation, it was discovered that the said man had moved to Germany without informing his friend. Kingdavid narrated: "One evening, my neighbour, who had become a close friend, approached me in a state of desperation, explaining that our landlord was on the verge of evicting him.
