DH friend outstays welcome

Hi, I have an issue with dh's friend who, when he comes over, outstays his welcome. Dh's friend came over early in the morning a few days ago, stayed all day, stopped overnight, was still there when we were doing the school run and by 1pm hadn't moved from the couch! By this time I was fed up and went shopping with our young baby. Hubbys friend asked dh if I was annoyed because he was still there. Partly I am embarrassed that he picked up on my annoyance, partly I am glad lol. Hubby works very long hours and I hardly see him. We also have a young family. I have no issue in him seeing friends and I do like his friend a lot but he needs to know when to leave. Even my husband has trouble getting him to go home!

Who cooks him the Full English ? Is it offered or expected ? Bloody weird behaviour anyway.

Give him toast..he will soon bugger off

Is he homeless and sofa-surfing ?

Don't even give him toast! Tell him you're going out soon, he needs to leave. Don't even allow him to come over, DH could meet him for lunch elsewhere. Staying overnight-where? On the sofa? Just make it super uncomfortable for him, plonk the DC down so he has to move, turn on CBeebies 24/7.

I don't get this at all. You were embarrassed that he picked up that you were annoyed he was still there, even though him picking it up would be more likely to get you what you want?

My goodness, I would have asked when he was leaving, and told dh to ask him to leave.

Get your husband to deal with him
