When you are visiting a friend or relative do you:

1-Expect your hosts to entertain you all the time?

2-Expect your hosts to join you in all outings?

3-Question why they have other guests?

4-Tell off your hosts children-in the presence of the parents. When the children are not doing anything to you to deserve it?

5-Keep your hosts up until late-just talking and talking and talking?

6-Forget that although you may be on vacation, your host isn't?

7-"help" hosts clean up by ordering her children around to do the cleanup?

8-Take food eat, and take seconds before host has even had a chance to sit down?

9-Make tactless comments about hosts house and family-basically insulting them?

Thanx for letting me vent. And the list goes on. B"H they are leaving tomorrow!!

I think you should be very busy or out of town the next time they want to come visit. This sounds awful. I hope they are leaving soon!

Hugs.

OP here.

B"H they realized that their son started school today and not tomorrow-so they left early-instead of after a late lunch.

They are cousins who do a lot for us and I have them come as Hakoras Hatov-even though I know they will drive us all crazy while they are here. Its funny, as I love them very much and we are really good friends. But as guests they are just horrible.

Thanks for commiserating with me. And for letting me vent-it sure helps to get it out anonymously.

You should be able to set some boundaries and not be so constantly available while they stay by you.
