Sister and her husband nap every time they come over

[Anonymous]

So now you know why all the kids’ activities and sports need to stop for a snack break for 15 mins in the middle even when the activity itself is only like an hour. Because the adults can’t get through a 3 hour visit without napping in someone else’s house.

SMH…

I love a good nap and don't begrudge anyone theirs, but taking over communal living space to do it is just rude.

My BIL once invited himself to stay with us for a weekend, and after lunch he stretched out on the couch, meaning that three of the six places to sit in the living room were now not available. "Would you be more comfortable in your room?" I offered, trying to be tactful. Why, I don't know, given that consideration for others has never been his watchword (see also: inviting himself to stay in the first place). Nope.

OP, they aren't going to change. You need to stop inviting them for lunch, because they will always do this.

OP, my family is Pakistani so I don’t think this is weird. We always joke that close family makes you sleepy because your comfortable. Especially if it’s after your parents have passed, it’s the closest feeling to your childhood home. On another note, my from Spain Spanish friend naps all the time on my couch. NBD!

Do you have a dog? If so get one of those covers for couches that blares if you go on it.

Seriously, make like airports and make it impossible in your house to lay down in public spaces. Perhaps passive aggressive but so is continuing to nap through your visits despite your comments.

Can’t your sister come over, have a meal, catch up, drink a coffee and drive and hour home? It’s not like they came off a red eye or have a super long day.

Do they have real jobs or always been chopping out two hours an afternoon to nap wherever they are?

That's a weird comment. Why would they shed more hair if they were sitting there asleep than if they were sitting in exactly the same place, in the same clothes, and awake, talking to you? Or skin cells?

And the tossing turning of all that body to surface area!
and the drool!
And the neck sweat!
And the smell!

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm.

Hahahaha. Stop the imf payments. And they take two hour social lunches there too or play about in the hq 1 gym an hour or two a day.

? Was there a point here other than "I know all these cute European terms"?

I love laundering the guest room because someone can over for lunch and to talk and took a full on nap there. Cool.
Or maybe just never launder it…

Just do lunch and have plans afterwards so they can’t nap. Then see them outside of your home for longer excursions/time together.
