Long time lurker here (but found my confidence through sneakiness of my cat/dark Lord/ ovelord)... stately homes observer, mexican house theif etc etc) don't like people that take advantage. I meant £150+ to one of my best friend d's before Xmas. He paid it back within the week and now comes in for a tea or7 this is my AIBU. He is a lovely guy. Has young and stupid, but still he honours how word

Omg the OP returns yes!!!! OP gives us the original AIBU

BulletFox · 12/01/2018 21:17

Rebel no it was the cat who was at the tequila. Naughty overlord.

KitKat1985 · 12/01/2018 21:20

Phone 101. Tell them the tequila stole your cat.

Tinkofhousepan · 12/01/2018 21:22

I think the cat would probably fare better on the tequila than me to be honest. So glad I didn't have work today! There have been some hilarious replies on this thread though!

So what have you done Op?

cornishmumtobe · 12/01/2018 21:31

Brewand tell us the real AIBU!!

WickedGoodDoge · 12/01/2018 21:32

Yay! The search party found you!

BulletFox · 12/01/2018 21:35

Hopefully OP will recover from the cat's tequila session then come back to instruct us on our mission.

I guess yes, no, maybe covers most bases.

We await further instructions.

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 12/01/2018 21:42

Cats and tequila. It never ends well.

Hahaha. Basically I lent my friends son some money before Xmas as he was in a bit of hot water just before his payday. He paid it back promptly but is now taking it upon himself to 'pop by' for a chat and a cup of tea etc regularly. I was booking a holiday for later in the year and he asked about it etc. He popped round yesterday and told me the great news that he had booked to go to the same place at the same time and how excited he is that he is coming on holiday with me! Now THIS is the aibu drumroll please am I being unreasonable to 1)find this a bit weird, 2)to tell him that I won't be hanging around with him every day of my holiday, 3)to tell him to back off a bit (nicely of course).

Hopefully that has cleared it all up Grin

This aibu was worth the wait. You are not being unreasonable to do all you hve suggested. But do it sober so that he understands 😂😂

This is GOLD.

YANBU.

I'd offer you gin, but that's probably not the ticket right now!

Brew
Tinkofhousepan · 12/01/2018 21:52

He's only a few years younger than me, and haha I would definitely do it sober!!! He is single yes, but I'm not and he knows this. He announced he was coming on our holiday in front of my boyfriend who was not impressed!

OP posts:
BulletFox · 12/01/2018 21:55

That does sound a bit alarming, like he has a crush on you.

yorkshireyummymummy · 12/01/2018 22:27

Maybe mention what the son has done re the holiday to your friend!!

I’m so glad you came back! And sober too!!
Tequilas great isn’t it!

MoonfaceAndSilky · 12/01/2018 22:32

Welcome back OP. Oh dear he sounds a bit keen Grin

Tinkofhousepan · 12/01/2018 22:32

The tequila was all the cats idea!! That's my story and I'm sticking to it... I think mentioning it to my friend is a good plan, but she is the sort of person that will be like 'oh how lovely, you will all have a great time'

I've a client fue to arrive to pick up her dog. Hurry uuuupppppp.

PositivelyPERF · 12/01/2018 22:33

Oops. Wrong thread. Blush

Leigha3 · 12/01/2018 22:35

I'd nicely explain that you and your boyfriend are looking forward to a romantic getaway for just the two of you...so you won't have time during your holiday to hang out with him.

BulletFox · 12/01/2018 22:40

Whassa 'fue'?
