Several ears ago, I was living in a house that the landlord wanted me to show tenants the spare room when a boy moved out. Anyway, 1 couple came and the girl was looking for a room.

She arrived with her bf and the three of us were in the room and I was giving them the lowdown of the house when the bf just wanders off and left me chatting to his gf. I didn't say anything and a few mins later the toilet flushed and he came out [leaving a putrid smell.] I was shocked and just pretended it did not happen before bidding them farewell and never saw them again as clearly she got accomm elsewhere.

But does any1 else here think that was extreme rude and inappropriate what he did? Like you ask to use the bathroom in somebody's house especially when you are there for a look at a room? I said nothing then but years later it irks me that I didn't. What would you have done?

i am not thinking about it all these yrs

You are though, your posting about it wanting to know what we think, you are thinking about it and asking us to think about it. In fact you said it got you thinking so your thinking about it arent you.

As people have said it was rude. But not bizzaree.

I don't understand why you were froze in shock what did you think it was thevsame bloke and you were shocked youd met the same guy. I dont understand why you were shocked, let alone frozen.

Moet people would have gone thats funny sonething like that happened to me, some people are rude and not thought amything about it and definately not posted on a forum hours later than being told or years later than the event your talkimg about

Now, if he had shit on your carpet, that would have been 'completely inappropriate'

Why did this make me laugh so much?

That would definately be the right time to freeze in shock. Or to reference a current thread - you’d be shook.

nothing, i would have done nothing. I am from the UK

Of course it was rude in the same way that DD opened her student house door to find one of last year's tenants who had come to collect some post that wasn't redirected. When DD opened the door the girl just walked in uninvited, walked down the hall, helped herself to the post on the hall table and walked back out.

I doubt DD will post it on MN though in years to come.

Well, you're absolutely right that it was rude. With hindsight, perhaps a quick "it would have been polite if you'd asked to use the facilities first" in a frosty voice would have made the person think twice.

I can see how a chance comment has made you think of this again. But it was so long agao that you can't alter it now....just be prepared for if it ever happens again. People are rude...some folks have no manners at all.

Really rude. You need to ask first.

Blimey poor OP. She only wanted to start a discussion, is there any need for the rudeness?

As a PP said, manners would dictate you would ask first.

insancerre · 03/05/2018 07:59

Poor op?

JaneyEJones The post you are quoting was deleted a while ago now. Maybe calm down yourself?

mzcracker · 03/05/2018 11:07

Not even sure what I said or why it was deleted but ok! Lol

Crapping on the carpet...now I agree that would be rude. I had someone pee all over our carpet once..he woke up after a few too many beers, and couldn’t be bothered to make it to the bathroom on time. Casually came down for breakfast, collected his stuff and bid us adieu. Didn’t realise what he had done, until I headed upstairs...and the stench of wee hit us like a force 9 gale as soon as we opened the door...it was all over the bed..the walls and had the floor.
Now that was rude...and yes I stil think about it many years on Shock

i just thought not to ask in a stranger's house was very rude, if i was his gf i would have being mortified.

It's interesting that you feel his girlfriend ought to feel some kind of responsibility/shame for her partner's behaviour. Almost like the way a man acts is a reflection on the woman he is with.
