i did it (f/u to help me say no post)

i emailed my dad and told him now wasn't a good time for anyone to come stay with us. i offered to help him look for alternate housing (i didn't have time to do a lot of research ahead, but can do it if he wants me to).

so... kind of waiting for the other shoe to drop.

thanks everyone for the support - at first i thought i was the most horrible person for saying no, so you've made it a lot easier.

  • You are NOT a horrible person!! You need to do what's best for you and your little family and it seems like you are. Kudos for standing your ground!

  • Good job standing your ground.  Your health, both mental and physical, needs to be a top priority.  If your dad living with you harms your health then you need to say no. 
  • Go Maryland! I hope it doesn't cause more drama.. But if it does, just walk away from it.
  • You are definitely NOT a horrible person!!

  • girl you are NOT a horrible person.  More power to those folks who take their parents in.  I need my personal space and am itching for even my family and friends to leave after day 3 but can tolerate day 4 and day 5 you better get going.

    With someone who hasn't shown appreciate or concern for you it's completely understandable to not want him there...doesn't mean you don't want him to have a good place to stay.

    And with you working from home whether you think it will or not it would cause stress on you which then you'd take out on F and then there would be tension between you two and just from our chats he seems like someone that once he's there it would be hard to get rid of him and he wouldn't be appreciative.

     

    If he writes back and is ugly just know it's not you and I would push helping him find a great place again.  If he doesn't want to see you care and are trying he can find a place on his own.

    So so so so so happy I will no longer have a guest room available weeeeeeeee haha

  • Good for you!! You are not horrible.

    If he writes back and says that its just more fuel for your argument.

    very true. i often forget my mental state is part of my health, too.
