Thoughts please re boyfriends being here

Hi my two adult dds are currently living with me and we all get on well. One of them has recently got a boyfriend (very nice chap) and because they both work different shifts he is often here in the week which doesn’t bother me but I think my other dd finds it a bit of an intrusion as she had a stressful job and needs to chill when she comes home. Any thoughts on what’s acceptable in this situation? I think I just like having people here as they all will be gone again soon!

How much is ‘often here’ though?
3/4 nights is hugely different to 5/6/7 nights. It’s awful not being able to relax in your own home because someone else is there, maybe have a limit to how often so there is a compromise? That way they each have a little their own way.

It can get very wearing very quickly. Before you know it they have practically moved in rent free. I lived to regret it. Be careful.
