[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems strange that she’s specifically asking to visit when you’re gone. Did she recently divorce and wants to stay there with a new BF?[/quote]

I’m not the op, but that’s a logical assumption. [/quote]

It’s gross that she literally asked when WON’T you be there so she can plan to be there then. That’s really offensive and very different from “can we come x dates? Oh, shoot you won’t be there then? Any chance we can still use it?” She’s planning around not seeing you. [/quote]

This. Very rude. I'd have to think hard about this request. It would depend on how much I'd want to support her in whatever she's going through.[/quote]

Um…you mean you’d have to evaluate whether or not to support your friend?

Nice.

I’m baffled by the overwhelming response that asking to use a friend’s vacation home is audaciously rude.

It’s fine to ask a good friend…and it’s fine to say no. But most normal people would let a good friend use their place if it was available.

WTH is wrong with people? Dcumlandia is so weird. [/quote]

I guarantee your house is not very nice. Most of us aren't like you and value our stuff. That doesn't mean we care more about stuff than friends though. The reality is many people wouldn't behave appropriately. People don't NEED to stay at your house.

People don't know how to act and you never know quite how much your good friends or family actually resent your good fortune. I have seen this many times. If you do something kind and extend the use of your home or property some people will treat it poorly because of whatever deep seated craziness they have going on. Also the thought of people going through my closets/drawers etc creeps me out. [b]You are lying to yourself if you think they won't.[/b] [/quote]

Of course people snoop. It is basic human nature. Any guest who claims otherwise is lying.[/quote]

TIL, I am not human. [/quote]
