I don't know, we do have a big past together and I feel bad because I am one of her only friends.

She lives 100's of miles away so I wouldn't probably see her again, but we do chat on fb and msn.

OMFG - what a horrible person
Im glad she is gone now!
I presume you wont be staying in touch?

When she came back from the shop she brought me chips, and gave me £10 towards petrol. She also had an attempt at tidying up, though didn't do a very good job of it, but that could be because I am quite particular about how I like it done?

Anyway, she has gone now, she missed the first one, and thought she was going to miss this one, so i gave her a lift to the station

I feel so relaxed, even though I know i have a bucket load of tidying ahead of me

Oh, and she did have a go cleaning the piss off the floor in the hall

I know i have so many things to do but i do feel better that at the end she helped a little, and she will be staying here again sunday to leave on monday, as pre arranged, but I won't be so quick to invite her for a week next time.

Silence is golden [sigh]

Just hold on to the thought that by the end of today she will be gone and you will be able to put your house straight and have a large glass of wine. I don't believe she won't have the fare...I think that's all manipulative. After all, I bet she hasn't just gone window shopping in town whilst leaving you to do the clearing up.

It isn't your fault that she isn't coping as well as you are, don't feel guilty for her. This isn't a license to just sponge off someone and trash their house. She is just taking advantage of you.

Good luck.

I think I have hung onto this friendship because we have a very traumatic history together. I don't know why but I feel a bit guilty that I have been able to move on and she isn't coping with life at all.

But I think it might be time to take a step back, if she asks to stay again I will just say I can't afford to!

Well done for saying something. Am wondering whether you would still have a house left if you let her and her darling son stay any longer.

I cannot believe anyone would stay in someone else's house and disrespect them as much as she has.

You don't need friends like her.

Sorry about your water lavender

Oh and she left the lids of all the condiments in the garden, after i had already gone and closed them all after our BBQ, it has rained here today and there are loads of flys hanging around them, so now am going to throw out all my nice chutneys and stuff i thought would be nice.

FFS, i feel angry that i even bothered, will give her value ketchup next time

This week is costing me such a fortune, i have even said this so many times but no offer of anything towards it.

and for the record, i know i invited her so am expected to provide food etc, which i wouldn't mind to some extent, if they respected me/my stuff and helped out when we were out shopping. I would if i was staying somewhere! but i hadn't expected to have to have to pay for everything.

Oh, and she didn't have any short sleeved tops for her son so i lent her one of ds's that he hasnt worn (is much smaller than her ds) and it is now stained I know this isnt her fault but she didnt apologise or anything and has just left the rest of ds's clothes she borrowed on the lawn in the garden

My house is now an absolute TIP ffs!!!

OH MY FUCKING GODDDDDDDD

I have told her that she can't stay here tonight, she is going to go and camp out with her sister, but is complaining about the distance back because she can't afford the fare back, is saying she is going to walk the 30 miles back, and tbh I couldn't give a shit, she says she will split it in two journeys and camp in the middle.

What did it was the fact that she ruined something very special to me, qand didn't even say anything, just left me to find it. When I was younger I used to go crabbing with my grandparents and one time my nan took me to this amazing field with water lavender everywhere and we picked some and dried it out, i used to have a big vase full but some of it got ruined in a move and i only had a small bit left, i found it knocked on the floor and all trodden on

I just want to cry, my nan has been gone nbearly a decade now and i can't replace it, i'm so upset

She still hasn't cleaned up the wee even though i brought the carpet cleaner upstairs for her.

she has just been lounging around using my internet, whilst her child covers my carpet in multicoloured chalk, will need to find out the best way to get that off, i am sure it won't be wetting it?

She picked up a piece of (her) rubbish earlier, i asked her if she was taking some rubbish in and handed her some more of (her) rubbish, i was feeling pleased she had done something until i went to the loo and she had just put it all on the side in there

I told her I was going to tidy up a bit, she half heartedly asked me if i would like a hand so i said yes please, she put the lid on the duplo (without putting all the duplo in it ) and then said she needs to pop into town, she has left me to do it, am fuming, asked her to pick up some bread whlst she is out.

freeloading bitch.

oops, not very fresh
