If you're not going to talk to them then what are you complaining about? You have the power to at least try and do something about it by talking but if you're too scared to do it then that's your problem, no-one here can do it for you

How long have you had to live with this problem? Normally one gets so used to the smell that they cant smell it anymore, unless they are trying to really make an effort to smell it. Normally for me to over come smell of fish i just keep some fragrant flowers at home like jasmine it helps a lot.

I've been here a long, long, time and I've yet to found anything that overpowers the smell of rancid ghee that's managed to permeate all the woodwork in a flat. Without being overpower itself, that is. Any suggestions?
