Neighbor is always there

I just moved to a home with a nice big back yard a few months ago, but barely get to enjoy my yard in peace. Almost everytime I go outside, the backyard neighbor comes out to watch me from his deck. His yard faces a different direction, yet he somehow always sets himself up to face my yard. I find being outside relaxing but now it’s extremely hard to feel comfortable when outside as he’s always outside when I am. I wouldn’t mind if he didn’t face my yard and watch me, play his music loud, or let his dog bark and rile my dogs up. I could switch up the time I go outside and no matter what, within minutes he’s out there too. Am I crazy for wanting to enjoy my backyard without someone staring me down. I haven’t had a single conversation with this guy, don’t think I want to, as the few times I’ve waved at him to be polite, he’s never waved back. At first I thought it was a coincidence that he always came outside at the same time but even after switching when I go out… There he is. Every time. The whole reason we got this house was to enjoy the nice backyard but I just feel anxious at the thought of going into my yard now. Am I overreacting?
