    "You won't have to deal with me ever again"

    > Hey, I love your parents and all but it's really getting to be a lot with all of us in this space. 5 people is too many. Can they try to make plans to stay somewhere else that's not our house? I don't want to make your parents uncomfortable but the lack of space and unexpectedness of all of this is getting to me since they weren't supposed to be staying here. Today 2:14 PM Couldn't get hotel till tmrw Bc my parents don't have $800 to spend every night

    Okay. I understand but definitely should have been planned better with stuff being booked as soon as they found out they were coming. You told me from the start they weren't staying here and I feel kind of taken advantage of/lied to
  • 04
    I apologize and am sorry that you feel taken advantage but my dad visiting was very last minute and they are my parents, they aren't strangers. They just need a place to sleep and shower for 1 week. At the end of the month you will never have to deal with that again. My dad has never been here and I was so excited for both of them to be out here together and spend time with me. You are making me feel guilty for having my family spend time with us

    It's the fact you told me multiple times they would not be staying with us. I'm not saying this to make you feel bad, but it is an inconvenience. Your boyfriend already lives with us practically, you have 3 extra people in our house right now. It's not even that they are here, you blatantly lied to me multiple times and just expected me to not say anything which is not cool Delivered

    Sorry dude Idk what else to say I did say they would be getting an Airbnb or something But that never happened I did lie Bc plans changed and it was most convenient to stay at our place It's not cool I'm the worst roommate ever It's a good thing I'm moving and you won't have to deal with me ever again Or my family Deliver

    Okay that is just so unfair. I love you but I think it was super inconsiderate of you. It was most convenient for you, but you didn't think about me. I would not do this to you, and my dad and his girlfriend would not put you in this situation ever.

    For context, I (24f) live in a very desirable state to vacation. My roommate (23f) have lived together for the past 2.5 years and I would say she's one of my best friends. However, her family has been overstaying their welcome in our 2 bedroom, 1 bath, 500 sq ft apt. We have 2 dogs and a cat and my roommates bf practically lives with us too.

    Her family was supposed to get an air b n b or a hotel from the beginning and they simply have not booked anything. They've already been staying with us for 4 days and I'm at my wits ends. Roommate is being very inconsiderate and not seeing my perspective. Instead, she tries to make me feel guilty about their finances, when in my opinion they shouldn't be traveling if they can't afford it. Am I being crazy?

    . goober_ginge · 1 day ago · edited 20 hr. ago The "It's not cool I'm the worst roommate ever" and "you won't have to deal with me soon" is so manipulative. It's putting pressure on you to now make her feel better and removes any responsibility she has at being an inconsiderate housemate.

    I've had housemates do this to me in the past where I'll agree that a friend or relative of theirs stays for a night or two and it's dragged on. They know what they're doing and are just hoping you're going to be too polite to say

    anything while they're there and they'll deal with the aftermath later. It's immature behaviour and you have every right to be annoyed and feel taken advantage of.

    mamabear101319 1 day ago • I'm sorry but what hotel / airbnb is 800$ a night?
  • 16
    Any Location7126 OP. 1 day ago I live in Hawaii so hotels can be quite pricy but not 800 dollars a night. Problem is they booked flights for 10 days without a place to stay during the week of the Fourth of July so there aren't many options available

    Livlife2fullestt · 1 day ago How do all those people fit in a 500 sq foot apt? Like you guys would literally be in each other's faces 24:7

    Any_Location7126 OP. 1 day ago Oh we don't fit that's the problem! There's always someone in the bathroom and I've been avoiding the living room/kitchen when they are here since there is no space.
