A Nigerian-Filipino in the diaspora sharing funny stories, honest, hard-hitting reflections on marriage, family, faith, and navigating adult life. Deep dives!
Your husband invites his old university friend to stay in the guest room for a few days while he finds an apartment.
6 months later, the friend is still there.
He pays no rent, eats your food, and treats you like hotel staff.
Your husband refuses to evict him. You are completely subsidizing a grown man because your husband lacks a spine.
Set a hard move out date.
Your home is a sanctuary, not an indefinite rehabilitation center for adult men.
Enforce the eviction if he cannot do it. This time, it's either he marries his friend or he keeps being married to you.
