Chroma Doze (source also on github). Tell yourself it will be over soon. If it's same time each day, create a routine to be out (cafe, library browse, exercise) - he can help you reach your goals! I have had success in talking to the person, but only by caring about them, as a person, first. You can move, but noise seem to follow me around - construction noise, air conditioning hum, people running/jumping upstairs - to a greater or lesser extent. Lower density housing (eg rural or wilderness) helps but talk and music in a noisy cafe doesn't bother me, but furtive conversation in a quiet library does... It's funny, when I'm enthralled by projects and life, I don't notice these annoyances... I think it can be a sign that I've lost touch with myself or am blocked in some way.

I like this approach the most. Turn a negative into an even higher value positive. Positive non-harmful revenge! To a small degree, I tried talking and caring about the person which is how we found the minimum volume he could lower his music to. It's not low enough though, and I'm not sure if he'd be willing to use earphones. The issue remains, and I'm making progress resolving things from my end, including mental things like trying to accept that the singer is probably a great and sweet person who I have no reason to dislike. As for these annoyances, I <i>have</i> recently been struggling to design an MVP for an idea I'm pursuing..
