Break-up Sandwich

All rightee, who out there does not think this is a bit odd? A few months ago, my very sweet, giving and flat-out amazing next-door neighbor and her equally wonderful partner broke up after nine years (very, very sad, since they were a lovely couple and much fun together). Instead of moving to another building, in some other far-flung part of the city, however, my next-door neighbor's partner decided to move into a loft-space in the same building, purportedly so that custody of their dog, "Peaches," could be more easily shared. Now here's the truly odd part: the loft-space that my next-door neighbor's partner rented happens to be on the other side of us Parks, and so now we are truly in the middle of a break-up sandwich, with the break-up-er on one side, and the break-up-ee on the other. In all, they live literally 20 paces away from one another. Maybe they didn't REALLY break up, but perhaps just needed a bit of added space and an extra bathroom?
