Oh, I've been there.
Many years ago, after husband #1 and I had just gotten married, he told me his friend needed to spend a night or two on the couch. Two nights turned into four. The next day, the guy's girlfriend showed up. No one asked me if he could stay and he didn't ask if she could stay. I was SO MAD. We didn't have a spare room, we lived in a one-room apartment. They took over my living room (and the only place outside of the bedroom I could go to relax in the house. Then my husband informed me the friend and his girlfriend would be staying a week. Then it was a month. They didn't help with rent or pay for any food. I finally told husband #1 either he kicked them out or I was leaving and he said, "I won't ask my friends to leave". So I packed my bags and drove to my parents house (four hours away) and when he realized he couldn't pay rent on the apartment and feed his friends without my income, he kicked them out and begged me back home. I said no and found an apartment of my own. This is where I messed up, however...he moved out of the old apartment and I let him move in with me in the new apartment, trying to save our marriage. Which didn't work.
That was a looooong time ago. I was young (only 20), and learned a good lesson from the experience. Don't let friends stay at your house to 'help them out'. Ever. That marriage only lasted 2 and a half years and it's easy to see why. haha.
Yes Im there myself.
I've been in hospital due to some issues and little suspicious of my wife rare visits. Yesterday I got back home and there was a person at my living address of unknown acquaintance. I understand me wife needed some consolation time and he is an employee of Our Lady Consolation Home but he doesn’t look like a lady at all.
What should I do.
