Yes I do but don’t be surprised at what you walk in to. I may not be dressed appropriately, I just got out of the shower. The house may be messy, I’m in the middle of a few projects.
@Justmeraeagain [i][c=BF0080]Haha 🤭 If they were invited, I don’t rush them out. I do know the feeling of it being a long visit every so often though. For the most part, I usually enjoy the time. [/c][/i]
@MellyMel22 we once had my sister-in-law and her husband as guests for 3 days he was a total pain in the butt he complained about everything I wanted to kick him to the curb
I get angry if people come over without calling first. I won't let them in, and half the time they get treated to a sliver-like view of me in my bathrobe with no bra.
@MellyMel22 I had some dick for brains come over once, stand in my hallway and lecture me because I had stopped going to church. If you speak in the hallway, ALL the neighbors can hear every word. I was incredibly angry.
Ugh. I loathe it. I'm not even happy with guests who ask for the most part, unless I've invited them and I'm still counting the hours
The worst for me is during hospital stays. As if the entire staff isn't stomping all over the little introverted freedom (s) I have left. My anger is non existent until that point.🤬
@MoonlightLullaby [i][c=BF0080]I can see that being a pain. I had that prob at home when I was on bed rest for a month after the hospital almost killed me during c-section. I couldn’t move and had to deal with whoever popped by while loaded on meds that made me sick. I know they meant well, but it was very uncomfortable to me. Even people I weren’t ever close to were showing up- it was horrible. [/c][/i]
No. But as if I have a choice when my inlaws come uninvited. It pisses me off when they get upset when they tell us they've been knocking and then they find out we were out.
I'm used to it. The most I had just rock up at one time, was about 15 or 20 cousins not to mention their dogs. Had people sleeping in the corridor and on the trampaline.
@MellyMel22 They were travelling to a funeral on one of my Aunts husband's side of the family. It was easier camping at our house then it was to pay for a hotel for everybody... Still, a lot of people to have rocked up.. Another time 8 people rocked up, friends of my Dad's. Only one of them spoke English. Dad was away, so we housed them for 2 days before he got back. They turned the heater on full blast whilst opened all the windows. Expected us to wait on them hand and foot.. It was a nightmare.
Well, we have the old lady who watches us from the doorway while we sleep, but the wife has taken to closing the bedroom door at night, so there's that.
Otherwise, we don't get a lot of "uninvited guests."
@Convivial [i][c=BF0080]It took me a long time to say, I’ve had enough. Nothing like an in law popping up with her 5 kids to destroy your house 😡[/c][/i]
@MellyMel22 not too mention your peace and quiet ... You need to keep some cans of area bug spray handy... you know the kind. .. where you close all the doors and windows and lock the place up for 8 hours..."love for you to visit but i was just about to close the house and go out for the day ...."
@SW-User [i][c=BF0080]I can only imagine! [/c][/i]
SW-User
My neighbor is like this. When she sees my car in the driveway she will knock non stop and when she finally sees me she will be mad and say I knew you were home !
Lol, I heard that. Everyone rings my doorbell, so if I’m not expecting anyone I don’t answer. My two closest friends have my door code. So they can come into the building and knock on the door of my flat.
@jfox4anr [i][c=BF0080]I do it when my cam doesn’t catch them out there. Then my kids run over and break the blinds trying to look and then we get caught 😡😆[/c][/i]
It will never cease being bizarre and strange to me how stopping by while in the area became this horrible social taboo in the past 20 years. Company stopping in because they were driving by used to be something people got excited about and even kept drinks and snacks around for just in case. It's kinda sad how even being a friend and seeing friends has mutated into bueracracy and formalities. It's exhausting and kinda insulting.
@MethDozer lol I always dream of having snacks/drinks I can serve on cute little trays to people but I feel like those times are gone now. Like I would be happy if my friends randomly showed up to my house without texting but they would feel like they were intruding now
@SkeetSkeet Hell yeah. Not having a parlor or rec room with a bar and shitbis one of the things I hate about renting apartments. No where to bring people that stop by.
Real reason.😇
