You never want to overstay your welcome. It's just awkward for everyone involved, especially when it's family. You may have experienced this situation before, particularly during the holidays when you have to work but have many family members visiting, and everyone expects you to prioritize spending quality time together. While it's nice, dealing with family can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to an entitled sister-in-law.

After going through a bit of a hard time, her sister and brother-in-law allowed her to move in until she could get back on her feet. But she took full advantage of the situation, rearranging her room and hanging up all of her things on the wall. The couple was annoyed, but they let it slide. Later on, the couple announced that they were expecting a baby and had to turn the guest room into a nursery. As a result, they gave her sister two months to find a new place. See the chain of events that sparked the police having to get involved.

    A few years back my wife's sister needed a place to stay short term to get back her feet. We were all in agreement it would be short term, just a couple months. Told her she could hang pictures in her room but

    no holes bigger than thumb tacks or tack nails at most and she agreed. A week later she mounted shelves and put in wall anchors for heavy framed pictures. Then brought in a mini fridge. We got upset

    but damage was done and nothing we could do about it now. A month later my wife was pregnant and we decided to tell sis in-law that we would need the room and gave her two months to move out. Two months was about up and she hadn't

    done anything to move out and decided to pretty much pull a bunch of bs that she was entitled to stay there cause she's taken up residency now that she had mail coming there and that she'd need a few more months to get ready to move out and if we have a problem we can take it

    backed me for having firearms and keeping in my safe. This is where I got petty. I bought storage totes and packed up all the pots, pans, eating utensils, cooking utensils, plates and cups and put master locks on them. I

    took the water cooler and jugs of water and put them in our room along with the coffee pot, microwave and toaster. It upset my wife to have to deal with extra bs to get the things we needed but god if it didn't make me happy knowing my sister in law couldn't anything to make food or anything and she ultimately left not long after.

    LibraryMouse4321 • 2d ago Should have immediately started eviction process. Once evicted it'll be in her record and can mess her up in the future.

    dadarkgtprince • 2d ago Isn't it trespassing if you asked her to leave your residence and she refused? Why wouldn't the cops help remove her? Granted yes, she was invited in, but there was a limit to that invitation

    Odd-Phrase5808 . 2d ago And this is why people don't stay for longer than a week! Ever! Nicely insist that their welcome has been overstayed, while you still have rights to make them leave. Glad your petty actions worked, that could've gotten ugly otherwise! Never invite SIL around again, not even for a day. Though I'm sure you've already decided that anyway.

    ununseptimus • 1d ago Knowingly and willingly spraying perfume everywhere knowing it'd affect your pregnant wife's health? Well done for not turning violent. Admittedly that might seem like a no-brainer, but well done just the same. Good to hear she's gone.

    • _gadget_girl 1d ago Good for you. The best way to get rid of unwanted roommates is to convince them that they will be miserable if they stay. Petty can be way more effective, and much cheaper than legal eviction.
