Furious at DH and his friend bringing someone back to our house

421 replies

TiredSaturdayy · 26/07/2025 07:54

My DH’s friend is staying for the weekend. He lives about 4 hours away and they only see each other once a year. This is perfectly fine with me as I usually get on well with him.

Last night, they both went out into town to catch up. DH got into bed about 1am, I sleep lightly so was woken but soon got to sleep. His friend is staying in our spare bedroom.

I am woken by noises shortly after. I wake DH and ask if he can hear them. He says there’s something he needs to tell me and that his friend met a women in the last bar they were in and INVITED HER HOME! So the noises were infact them ‘at it’ in my spare bedroom.

I go ballistic at DH and ask why he thought this was acceptable. Our DC is away this weekend which is beyond the point. Completely irresponsible to allow a stranger into our house in those circumstances.

I tell DH that if he doesn’t ask her to leave then I will. He says he’ll message his friend. No reply. He’s about to get up and knock on the door when we hear it open and his friend sees her out and she eventually leaves.

DH is asleep still now, I am downstairs absolutely aghast at their behaviour. If he thinks I am sorting out the fry up they kept on about before they went out then they’ve another thing coming.

Absolutely disgusting behaviour by both men. Treating your home like a brothel almost.
Why didn't this man take the woman to a hotel for sex?
I would actually wonder what your H gets up to on evenings out without you when he has so little respect for you and the marital home.

A brothel? She wasn't a sex worker, they were too people that wanted to get intimate in private

I would have waited till the morning, made a cup of tea, taken the temperature. I certainly wouldn't kick someone out in the middle of the night. Did you never have a drunken one night stand? Not the end of the world.

To go back to another woman’s home with two men you don’t know? You set your standards abysmally low. I would have thrown you out out immediately. So grim.

How do you know she wasn't a sex worker?
OP knows nothing about this woman other than what her H told her.

And I would suggest taking a woman back to somebody's home where you are a houseguest in order to have sex is not having sex in private. It is sombody else's home and not your private space.
If they wanted sex in private then they should have gone to her home or a hotel.

OP could hear two strangers having sex in her spare room. How is that having sex in private?

Apologies, I do see now you have said you have read all of OP's posts. I admit to getting frustrated by people who don't and can't bother with keeping up to date.

Anchorage56 is not bothering to read the quoted history (which as I am not the OP are clearly not the OPs posts) and demanding I explain the quoted history which starts :

I think it's massively disrespectful by the friend and your DH. I'm also wondering about the thinking process of 2 men bringing a woman who doesn't know them back to a strange house - I'd like to think that men are better than this but, here we are.

Well, there you go. I guess I'm grim. People go out, they have a few drinks, they meet someone, they go back with them. There's a lot of pretty nasty judgement of the woman on this thread that I don't like. Yes, maybe your DH friend was a bit rude, but it's not the end of the world. There's a lot of overreacting here. Starting with the OP. I can't imagine turning the woman out in the middle of the night myself.

She could be a prostitute, a criminal or anything else, and even if she is just a drunken twat, imagine thinking it is ok to inflict that on YOU in YOUR OWN HOME.

What a drunken piece of shit your husband is.

If you’ve got ‘another thing coming’, you’ve got another think coming | Mind your language

No, it’s not.

Indeed. It is, unequivocally, another "think" coming.

As in, if he thinks that he has another think coming.

I don’t like the way both men have instantly gone to “oh she was mad for it!” And blamed her, like they were innocent bystanders dragged along. It’s really shitty.

Namechangerage · 27/07/2025 00:44

And it’s THINK! Thing is an egg horn of think. Both phrases used now because people have said it wrong for so long now.

freerangethighs · 27/07/2025 01:45

I think a lot depends on what's normal in your household, and the replies here reflect that. For some people there are strangers in and out quite a bit and valuable locked away, so if no children home or apt to come home during, then perhaps no problem. But the way your husband said he had to tell you something suggests that he knew this wasn't the norm and wouldn't be OK with you, especially without asking you AHEAD of time.

If the woman was local and was, as your husband seems to imply, out scouting for a one night stand, why didn't she and the friend go back to hers?

You very definitely have a drunken arsehole of a husband problem. Imagine thinking it was ok to drag some unknown drunk into YOUR HOME for his drunken friend to shag. It is breathtakingly disrespectful, not to mention really really dangerous to invite strangers into your home in the middle of the night.

Velmy · 27/07/2025 03:11

I'd be more annoyed with DH in this situation. Presumably at some point his mate asked if he could bring this woman back and he said yes. Assuming they were all a bit worse for the drink, I doubt he'd have thought anymore into it.

I'd have given him a load of stick in the morning, let them cook their own breakfast, and had a very direct conversation with DH when he left.

You are free to think whatever you think about your thinking.
