Alright, I hope my story idea is feasible and doesn't make you send the men in white coats. I love crime fiction and crime shows and all that, so that's where I drew inspiration from this. Also, as you pointed out, I got inspiration from my one of my favorite movies Rear Window and did a bit of an opposite of it.
Exposition: Dave is an average guy, with a bit of OCD. Every night he comes home from work and stares out his window to the apartment across the way, where a young woman lives. The two exchange smiles and waves.
Rising Action: Dave continues to obsess over the girl, having panic attacks when she is gone. His obsessions lead him to begin planning to meet her, and he fantasizes about their future together.
Climax: He goes over to her apartment to meet her, she rebuffs him. In a rage, he accidentally kills her.
Falling Action: He snaps out of his delusional state and realizes what he has done. He tries to cover his tracks.
Conclusion: He sees the cops in the girl's apartment. He draws the blinds closed.
Not sure if this is too intense or whatnot. I love psychological thrillers and that's why I wanted to write one.
