Her Family Keeps Coming To Her Apartment And Staying Over For Days Without Asking Her, And It’s Driving Her Crazy
A 24-year-old girl lives in a city and splits her apartment with her 25-year-old guy best friend.
The apartment she shares with her best friend has 2 bedrooms (one for him and one for her), and she wouldn’t say it’s a large or tiny apartment; it’s pretty average for the city where she lives.
So far this year, her family has unexpectedly dropped by her apartment and stayed over for several days without even asking her first if it’s ok or if they are invited, and it’s driving her crazy.
“It’s been about 4 times already this year that my family has self-invited themselves to stay at my place without asking me prior,” she explained.
“My older sibling stayed here over 3 weeks before leaving and coming back a month later to stay another 3 nights.”
“The other time it was my mom and aunt staying 2-4 nights out of the blue.”
The final straw for her putting her foot dow with her family in regard to how entitled they feel to her apartment happened yesterday.
Yesterday, her mom sent her a text asking if she could get her from the airport today at 10 in the morning.
She replied back to her mom that she sleeps up until 4 in the afternoon due to her work schedule, hoping that would give her a hint, but her mom said she was happy to just get an Uber to her apartment instead.

She has no clue why her mom is coming over or how long she’s planning to clearly stay at her apartment when she arrives, and it’s immensely irritating.
Now, she has attempted to speak to her family about all of this while asking them to stop, but she got nowhere.
“Even when I have talked to them and expressed my frustration and that they are not allowed to do this, it’s like they all are so surprised and say I’m terrible for saying that to family,” she said.
“In a “how dare you” kind of way. I have to run this by my roommate as well, and it’s so tiring to have to change my plans or stop what I’m doing to host my family staying over whenever they want.”
For instance, after work, when she plans to then run around her city completing errands, she has to change her plans and get her apartment cleaned up for her family’s visits. And if you’re curious about how her roommate feels about her family constantly coming over, he’s pretty cool about it.
“He’s ok with it, but if the tables were turned and his family was staying over several times a year, unexpectedly, I’d be annoyed too,” she added.
She’s left wondering how she can get her family to stop coming over unannounced. How do you think she can go about getting them to cut this out?
