Dear Abby: My creepy neighbor broke into my house and wont leave us alone

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 19-year-old guy and live with my parents.We have this neighbor, “Ed,” who, until recently, was friends with my dad.

We’ve hung out with him several times and have even gone over to each other’s houses to watch sports games and eat dinner.The problem is, Ed has become very overbearing and strange.He has always been a little off the wall, which, at first, we both found hilarious.

But since then, his foul language and vulgarities have rubbed us the wrong way.He’s disrespectful to his wife and son, which I know isn’t my business, but Dad and I are over it.

Lately, Ed has been constantly calling and texting my dad.Now he has started texting me asking why my father isn’t responding.

Five years ago, she lost her father in a tragic accident while her parents were on vacation.Since that time, she has come out as gay and grown closer to me than to her mom (my sister). I was always close to my sister and both of her daughters while they were growing up and helped out financially when times were tough.

My sister recently remarried and plans to move to another state with her new husband prior to the wedding. My niece has asked me to walk her down the aisle along with my sister.My sister said it’s disrespectful to her since she is the mother.

I don’t want to hurt my sister or my niece.My niece says it’s both of us or neither one.

(There are no grandparents.) I told ...
