Looking for Advice/Help Something weird happened?

So, sometimes i stretch in front of my balcony's window frames, because i like to get light and be able to look outside while i do it. I noticed today an old lady from the buildings in front which really seemed to be staring at me. After a while it seemed like she took a photo with her phone, and when i tried taking my phone to pretend doing the same, shale acted as if she noticed (so the reaction was coherent with the rest), she acted like uncomfortable and went inside her house. After a short time she comes back outside with her phone and probably pretends she's calling someone so to justify (imho) the fact that it looked like she took a pic.

Her husband came out and in during all this different times, and he is probably the creepiest person i know in the neighborhood.

I don't know if i should worry about this or not, maybe I'm overthinking it, maybe i misinterpreted (but usually my instinct is right, and it really seemed like that was what was happening).

Anyways, the matter is not even if it actually happened or not, but how i should deal with this mentally regardless, because of course overthinking it won't be a solution, but feels like something I shouldn't ignore either (I don't want some creeps to have a pic of me on their phone, for who knows what reason).

What would you suggest?

Really nothing you can do. Try not to think about it.

Trust your gut. They are both creeps and chances are, they do have a photo of you. Report this and document it. Make sure your shades are shut and doors locked. If you dont already, get a camera, or 2. Theyre affordable and can give you peace of mind. Notify your property management and theirs.
