To say dps friend can't stay on my sofa tonight

[Berryglitter]

Dp has called and asked if his friend can sleep here tonight (my house, dp doesn't live here). I've had a long rough day, going to have to go back to court with ex etc. Just wanted to relax with dp.

His friend is lovely, I enjoy his company and he will be respectful of my home and generally a pleasure to have here however he could stay at his parents two roads away.

Apparently I'm being miserable, it's a Friday night, supposed to be fun and we can talk about ds another time.

I may be taking my mood out on them, they're not back yet (annoying in itself), I'm just not sure if I should suck it up and get on with it.

I'd sick it up tbh. It's just one night. Better than looking (rightly or wrongly) miserable

*suck

They might take your mind off things for an evening.

I absolutely wouldn't suck it up. It's your home, you get to say when you want guests.

I think that's what I'm going to do. It's just bad timing is guess (running about to tidy up) and I know they'll be drunk and late when they come back.

Maybe I should open a bottle or two and quickly get in the spirit. I don't want to be a moody cow, just feel like one big time.

I bloody wouldn't.. he has his own house he can put his friend up in. Have a quiet night in yourself and see your dude tomorrow.

It's your home, you don't want it - so say no.

I do feel a bit like a hotel for waifs and strays sometimes. He is the only one of dps friends I really like, rather than just do the pretend liking. It's just the timing. I've had such a long day, I'd struggle to be nice to a chocolate bar right now.

Why cant they stay at your DP's house?

you don't have to entertain them

why do you think you have to neck a bottle of wine just to be sociable ?

I Presume they are having a lad's night out ...tell them both to feck off and leave you alone to have a lovely early night

So he didn't get his way and resorted to blackmail to get his way?

I loathe this "you're boring" nonsense. If he feels that way, him forcing you to be "fun" isn't you being fun anyway.

So no. If it doesn't work for you, that's perfectly okay.

Why doesn't he stay at your boyfriends house/apt., or his mothers house?

There is alot to be said for being boring, it's a skill I have been honing for two decades. His parents live two roads away, why don't they both sod off back there for the night and leave you in peace?

Yes, get drunk with them and stop being so boring and miserable.
Maybe can continue to practice this skill until you're malleable enough for him to want to marry you.

What did you do btw?

So what happened?

If they were out together and neither of them live with you, why would they be staying at yours?

Do you live conveniently in town and they live further away?

I'd have said no, I'm afraid! Had I been out with them, that's a bit different but it sounds like they're just taking advantage.

I wonder if OP is busy making bacon sandwiches all round, dispensing the paracetomol and pints of water and generally making herself very useful in a patronising mixture of B=B owner/cool girlfriend kinda way ?
