I Kicked Out My Boyfriends Homeless Friend After She Crossed Boundaries r/Relationships

[@blix_xo]

She doesn't speak for us Latinas. We don't do ANYTHING like that. Not even by a fraction! Changing in front of others in the front room? Cuddle up to someone else's boyfriend? Puh-lease. Tell me she's into him without telling me she's into him. A Latina would pull her off him and set her straight.

I am ready to bet he told her it was his or never corrected her so she kept assuming it was his. She thought she could snach the guy and a home from her by being shameless. He thought he could have a side piece and a free ride. Good riddance. OP needs better taste in men. Imagine being so nice to let a friend of your partner live with you, a female on top in this case, and then gotten chewed out by both. Mind boggling how some people just take and keep taking and then try to kick you when you don't play into their crap anymore. He only came back because she found out it wasn't his place and dropped the act. So now he is without the b*tch, without gf and has to sleep in the doorm.

[@TsukiKageTora]

If I was homeless and had no place to go, you’d know I’d respect my friend’s girlfriend’s boundaries if they host me. The fact she stepped on boundaries, she risked getting kicked out regardless if she thought nothing would happen. She made her bed and now she must lie in it. Maybe then, she could actually find a job and look for a place since she doesn’t have the comfort of her friend stopping his girlfriend from kicking her out cause she crossed literal clear and reasonable boundaries

Story 1: If it were me she'd 1000% be out when she tried taking off her underwear in front of them. The excuse was so ridiculous too "trying to feel like home" ...so in her own home does she often change in front of literally anybody who happened to be around? Either something was going on between the ex and the friend or they're weird if that's normal to them. Someone tries that stuff in my house I'm telling they're free to go outside with that if they're so comfortable doing that in the open like that.

[@blix_xo]

I got weirded out by that remark too. "Trying to feel at home." So it's normal to take your underwear off in front of company such as friends and family? Go to the bathroom or nearest empty room to change clothes. That would have been suspicious very quick, she wouldn't have lasted long. The last area where he took time off for the friend is what sealed it for me. She was something more than a friend. I get being there for friends, but to treat her better than your partner? Something was up. Overall I was glad to hear the place belonged to OP.

[@LadyBern]

The most I could give her is that she removed her bra with or without taking off her shirt. That's the only logical reason she wasn't instantly put out without question.

[@youarehere594]

Last story made me feel good. I'd wager he looked confused because how many years ago did they divorce? He probably wrote the ring off since she was going through the problems she had. I'd wager that once he figures it out he'll be grateful, even if his daughter doesn't use it his son might, and even still, its back in the family. OP rocks for doing that.

[@AndyyWithAY]

Story 2 there's no wrong answer here. I think it would be a beautiful gesture after 30 years. After the daughter hears the story, it will melt her heart. Contact the ex to ask if he wants it. And kudos to OP for thinking of this after all these years.

[@Erebus04]

Story 1: "She's just very unbothered and cool" You know who is bothered though? Your girlfriend. It's not her house, and honestly, if someone doesn't want to see another person straight up strip down in front of them in the _living room_ then they have every right to ask that person to change in their own room, even if they also don't own the place. It's just common courtesy and common decency. Don't even get me started on the other stuff, she's being rude, and brushing off your partner's blatant discomfort in favor of your "unbothered and cool" friend is also rude. Edit: "You ruined the only time I get with him" what do you mean "only time"? You smother him so often, I'm amazed he has breathing space. Edit 2: So it is Op's property. In that case, Op has every right to ask her to leave. She's being rude, smothering Op's boyfriend and keeping Op from spending time with him, and is now trying to get her kicked out from her own place. She's literally trying to take everything from Op, kick her out. "She has nowhere to go" tragic. maybe she should have thought about that huh. Edit 3: Imagine refusing to do the most basic things for your partner and then having a _literal_ temper tantrum because she won't cater to your poor wittle friend who got her fee fees hurt after being called out for being a shitty person. Why does he get to dictate your friends being over but then turns around and straight moves one of his into to _your_ house then whines and throws plates when you won't do what they want and want them to leave after blatantly disrespecting you?

that girl's behavior was 100% because she didn't know the owner of the apartment was op and not the boyfriend. It's not an excuse because either way she is an AH, but trust that she would have been a lot more scared about being kicked out if she knew from the get-go who the owner was. As soon as it hit her who actually owned the roof she was sleeping under she stopped eating and locked herself up as she knew she was screwed. Also the comment about no latino ever finding themselves without a home is very real. Children, grandchildren, cousins, grandparents; we take care of everyone. We have told my mom's elderly aunt that if she needs somewhere to stay we can put a room together for her. The following comment about how a latino whose family doesn't want to take them in is a red flag is also super real, as the only option that comes to mind is a murderer or drug addict, and even then some will try to reach out.

Story 1, one does not have to be Latina to know that was a bs excuse. I highly doubt that trashy behavior would be acceptable in any culture. The boyfriend was using OP for a free ride for him and his real girlfriend.

Story 1: “Lady please put your pants back on I’m binge watching gravity falls and don’t won’t it to be awkward” Nta Story 2: I would personally give the ring back

[@moonbear5929]

First story... (3:20) Kick them BOTH out! They can look for a place together and he can foot all the bills for the both of them! OP needs to get her house back! "We Latinos are like that..." How many times did she say that to OP? THEN accuses OP of being racist. JFC! One's race doesn't matter, if you have no class, you have no class! Un-classy people happen in EVERY race! I'm glad OP got her house back to herself. Second story: OP did the right thing, good for her.

The guy friend that was there needs to be bumped to Boyfriend and then fiance status.

Hey Mark, could you find some subreddits that do heartwarming and wholesome stories? I think it might be beneficial to students like myself going through midterms and finals. I feel like I'm about to rip my hair out from the stress.

[@cjandauntieyaya1446]

Story 2: OP has a choice about the ring. She can do with it as she wishes as her ex broke the tradition by cheating on his wife and causing the divorce and creating the misery. If OP feels like she should give the ring to the girl simply because she wants to honor the ex's grandmother's wishes, then so be it. But she is not morally obligated. Heirlooms are never going to stay "within the family" unless one marries back into the family which all those blue bloods did. Heirlooms are singular in nature and thus will travel through time farther away from the original owner. OP doesn't need to give back the ring, nor does she have to keep it. She can even sell it at an antique auction for $$$ but please don't pawn it as that's almost like throwing it away. The ex screwed shit up by breaking the marriage apart and not pushing to get back the ring. If it meant so much to him he'd have asked for it back way back then.

Went overboard. About someone trying to get you kicked out of your own house. Um. No?

[@Weirdandwonderfull19]

Story 2- OP sounds like an amazing and considerate person. What a lovely story from a lovely lady 🖤💜.

[@groofromtheup5719]

s1; wow, what a doormat.

[@sammieh9695]

That ring story was a true gem, I really feel for the op. I too fell in love and married too young, I was the 21 and he was 19. By the time we realized it we had a child and tried to force things to stay together. after 9 years we fell apart. Luckily we accept our own faults in this outcome and make peace for our son. Married or not we are family because of an amazing little human and holding hate or resentment over the issues we both contributed to is going to hurt him the most

The Ring.. you acted with TOTAL CLASS .. Hold your head high.

[@Floratic]

Her suggesting that the boyfriend kick his girlfriend out was all you needed to know. She acted this way because she thought it was the boyfriends place. If she knew it was the girlfriends place from the get go she probably wouldn't have acted that way. Also the boyfriend was acting problematic. I agree with the commentors that he probably enjoyed the attention.

[@tracydodson9997]

The story about the returned ring. Have to say thank you for such a nice story amidst the chaos of our world. Warmed my heart ❤️ Thank you!

[@kerribottriell-baxter7345]

Good grief with the first story. Glad OP got out of that one, because damn that Boyfriend was an idiot and that girl... don't get me started with that one.

[@aishalee5924]

The last story was the sweetest thing EVER ❤

[@anosmic-nose1290]

Mark, those onions you're cutting up must be very strong. They've set me off all the way up here in NE England and I've no sense of smell lol

[@pattsdannys6316]

I wonder how the so-called friend of op's now ex boyfriend feels now that she didn't just lose a roof over her head, she cost the dude's roof over his head...
