Follow up to uncomfortable houseguest thread. [More:]So I let her stay, but was *very* firm. Every time she touched my back (which is her 'move), I took a step backwards and brought up the girl I'm dating.
I made her a bed on the couch and said I was turning in early. Then I locked my bedroom door.

I dug all the advice, by the way. True, she's a classic 'wounded bird' and she likely plays it off to get wht she wants. We've been friends for eight years and, though I'm no sucker, I couldn't bring myself to make her drive another four hours when she was obviously beat as hell. I might actually be a nice fellow.

So it worked out. She was out of the house by 7 a.m. and I'm feeling pretty good about the whole thing.

Glad it worked out, item. Sounds like you achieved a good compromise.

Good for you, item. Sounds like no toes were crushed, and you stuck to your guns. It's possible, now that the groundwork's laid, that a few more instances like that and a new precedent will be set. If not, whatever, glad to hear you came out of it well. WTG.

All the girls I have gone out with, they have all been insane. Is this typical?
