Re: neighbor calling the police
If the police continue to come out and find nothing wrong, they will eventually file a charge of emergency services abuse against your neighbor. If it continues and the police do nothing, you may want to ask the police about filing a report against your neighbor for harassment. Unfortunately, sometimes the police won't file the abuse charge or the harassment charge depending on their policies regarding nonviolent domestic disputes.
Don't be embarrassed. You can't control other people's irrational behavior. I hope this helps.
