I posted a couple of months ago (under a different name, I think) about letting my friend stay in my granny flat, overhearing her telling her friend it was a hovel and then being really rude to me when I went to see how she was.

I gave her the benefit of doubt, even though you pretty much all told me she was taking the piss. When I saw her a second time I genuinely thought she was suicidal and thought that explained her behaviour, she’d been a great friend for the last 20 years blah blah blah.

Well, I finally managed to get her to leave yesterday. She didn’t give me the keys back, said she’d forgot, got really shitty with me when I said I needed them back as I don’t have a spare set (I do, but beside the point). She left it in an absolute state. Fridge full of stinky old takeaway and mouldy food, clearly not hoovered or cleaned the bathroom at all the whole time she’d been there (skid marks in the toilet 🤢). Sheets still on the bed, all my towels that I’d left for her filthy, covered in makeup and all over the floor. There’s absolutely no way this isn’t just a massive “fuck you” as she’s normally really clean and tidy.

I feel such a fucking mug. I lent her money to rent a new place too and it’s pretty clear I won’t be getting that back now. So, yeah, you were all right and I’m an idiot ☹️.

I can't think of a time I've disagreed with billy, tbh. My life has NOT been easy, still is not. I was conned, hey, I was dumb and a mug, but also lost a child and have a neurodivergent child who is very hard work. This is my lookout, but I don't visit it on others or use it as excuse to screw over other people. That's wrong. Honestly, you are not the one who should be feeling shame or the truth in photos.

But bless you for trying to help.... at least you’re a nice idiot! ( but you’re not an idiot) I’d have done the same... and have done .. please God, good Good Karma will get you back another time ..

@woofgoesthecat

I remember you. Tell her to pay for the place to be cleaned or you’ll post pictures of her skid marks on social media.
Good idea!

Chalk it up to experience but don’t let anything like that happen again. And think of the money as money well spent to be rid of her. But learn from this!
