Dear LIB readers; how do you handle unreasonable friends?

From a LIB reader...
I have had two friends stay with me on two different occasions and they stay for months (even though the initial plan is for them to get their own apartments after two to three months) and I have had to ask them to leave with reasons why they cannot keep staying with me when I sense they are not making plans to move out.
Now my issue with these friends is simple as I currently have another friend going through this… These friends never contribute to the welfare of the house/living...
They work and earn salaries like me but they will never buy things as small as dispenser water when it finishes or even fuel for generator meanwhile you see, they know the time for every program showing on TV. They expect me to take care of all the bills while they stay with me and they spend their money on things that are important to them...
My question is, do you think it is OK for a friend (the friends that work or making money NOT the ones who aren't working o or still looking for job) who is staying at your house to disregard these things and not contribute because it is not their house?

We have all shades of friends nowadays. Firstly,define your relationship, not all so called friends are worthy to be called friends. The above scenario accentuate it that they are not friends but parasites,how can they be earning salary and accept freebies too,they are really wicked,it's different if they are not working but your so called friends are working and not contributing anything. My dear,it's not okay at all,so bounce them out of your lives and in this year no room for parasitic friends

xquisite said...

My advice, wen u have a friend who wnts to squat nxt time, make it my house my rule. U tel her/him wat is expected frm her/him. And if this person is already wit u den u ve to call him/her and tel her hw u feel. Ur house shud be ur hme and u can't let a friend make u feel otherwise. Goodluck

Capital NO, it isn't ok one bit... Yu knw dey say common sense ain't common...

Allowing any of them to stay is like having countless children of ur own to cater 4 dem.instead go adopt kids 4 d orphanage home.

It isn't okay my dear. Reasons: when puting up with a frnd and u knw u re working, u don't need to be tld wat and wat nt to contribute. Asked them out

Simple communication. Talk to them about it. Every type of relationship needs effective communication to thrive. They should contribute. You are not Santa Claus, unless of course you are. Tell them if things don't change then you would be forced to take drastic actions you rather wouldn't take.

MADEMOISELLE said...

Of course not, they are supposed to help out in doing some things and if it isn't okay by them, then they should move out..am not saying they should pay half the rent but since they have jobs that pay the least they can do is buy fuel like u mentioned, ,or help buy one or two things they know u both use.. this is where common sense comes in, u ought not to even remind them to do these things, but I guess common sense isn't as common as it ought to these days,,,people sha smh..

Unknown said...

It is utterly wrong!!! And such friends should be forced to go and use their money to rent their house and pay their bills!

teena jonathan said...

I've learnt that people will never see your assistance to them positively so to save myself headache and heartache I don't allow friends stay over anymore, one night isn't even Ok you,ll be advised to learn the same. Let them stay somewhere else and spend or not spend their money somewhere else

Unknown said...

No! Nt at al ok. All u need do is sit them down and talk to them dats all.

mimsy said...

It is so not ok, I'll first talk to that friend about it as subtly as possible probably by giving hints, if they choose not to adjust, you'll bounce. I'm not asking you to pay rent, but if you get enough sense in your head, and you're earning money. You should contribute to taking care of the house.

Babes, wisdom is profitable to direct. Please send them packing. 😡

My dear, experience they say is the best teacher. Sometimes, its best not expecting them to contribute, cos that way they begin to feel really comfortable and may indefinitely extend their stay. All the same, help when you can and dont let others burn the bridges for others. Remain in control

Unknown said...

They they con't contribute to those important things,they shold find their way,simple!

Unknown said...

both are not OK,the ones earning salary must contribute, one must refil the gas while the other pays NEPA bill,while you buy fuel off CU's not not everyday if they no see light make them manage,and the food stuff you all must contribute equally as long as they feed from the house unless they wan dey chop outside, as for the jobless one,I don't no your relationship with him/her,CU's he may turn out to be a liability to you.

Believe me is not okay..they are just parasite.

Anonymous said...

This happened to me in school and all I did was to send her out cos she never drops a dime, she eats the most and she changes her wardrobe everytime she travel home. Tell them to start contributing as far as they are working cos they may see nothing bad in what they are doing. But if they refuse, then u can decide to close your eyes and evict them cos its not easy to do it.

Anonymous said...

Common sense and good upbringing should tell you that when staying with someone, you should contribute in every area since you are not paying rent. Your friends obviously lack these. You should not be afraid to raise the issue with them and let them know the 'rules'. However, next time, before allowing such friends into your home, lay the ground rules upfront so they know what they are getting into. You might have given then the impression that you are Mr/Miss Christmas!

They should contribute. Even a friend without a job can help out with menial chores too. I can't stay with someone and not contribute to the welfare of the house.

That's absolutely wrong. why will some1 stay with u & not take care of bills? abeg pursue them kiakia

Ryan said...

Look have been through that lane and its as crazy as it is! Just don't allow anyone in no more. That's how friends are no matter how nice they seem to be at first...

Anonymous said...

It is definitely not okay for "friends" to do that, they are called freeloaders who take advantage of the other person's kindness. For posterity sake, always set boundaries, rules and regulations before you let any friend stay with you for long periods. If their stay is for a few days then the host can just suck it in and tolerate them for that short while.

Chizzy says so! said...

I have a cousin who once stayed with me and was not contributing a single dime. She was cooking with my gas (and she cooks everyday!) while I hardly cooked except on weekends yet when the gas finished and I kept hinting that this gas finished too fast that I have to buy another one she acted deaf. This is someone that has a running catering business. When I realized she had no plans to contribute one day I came back home from work and told her point blank that going forward we will be contributing for gas and electricity and any other expense that will arise. I saw from her expression that she was not happy but I didn't care. When the time came I asked her for her own half and she reluctantly gave me. I made sure I never stopped. I didn't care. The alternative was for me to ask her to go. So dear LIBer, please if anyone is staying with you and is working ask the person directly to bring half of the money or ship out! People are naturally selfish.

I believe that any adult living with someone should contribute in one way or another either in cash (for a worker) or kind (chores) for those still seeking employment. Now, since you are the one housing the person the responsibility lies on you to ask the person upfront what they should contribute, its either you share it equally or they pay some part i.e. handling water refill or fuel for the generator etc but YOU must involve them in the financial aspect. Don't wait for them to say what they want to contribute because that may never happen. Usually its the fact that they are paying for things in the house that make them appreciate all you do or make them decide to move-out. Lets not be shy about letting people know that they have obligations because you were nice enough to house them in the first place.

Its bad attitude and such friends should be avoided. The best thing is for friends to leave apart, the moment friends leave together, hardly will u depart in peace.

Unknown said...

Call there attention to it

Unknown said...

They are not unreasonable friends, they are mere parasites. Before you know it, they will bleed you dry and thereafter move into their own homes. These same people will abandon you later, claiming that your impoverishment is caused by your spendthrift attitude.

Anonymous said...

First and foremost, it is necessary to spell it out for them, don't just expect them to understand the way you.

Remember, not everyone has common sense neither can they use their eyes to identify some common/minor need(s) while some will wittingly and wickedly act a such finding your mouth to hold on.

As a management student, you meant to know and understand that such act must likely happen whenever you're assisting someone.

my pastor once advised me that to avoid family and friends from milking u dry, that I should get a smaller apartment that won't accommodate many. Just me and my immidiate fam like hubby and kids. If you are single, let the apartment be selfie or selfie and househelp, it will save u money and friends coming to complicate for u.when they come and see the apartment won't ACCommodate much they will be forced to move on as soon as possible. U can always help them from afar cos some will come with habits that may influence young minds badly and such instances u already talked about.

Helping someone don't need pay back. If your friend is living with you and not pay any bills, You have to explain to him and he will definitely understand you.

.. Show me your friends I will know who you are

Sammie baby with 9 inch dick said...

totally understandable, they are all insenstive

felicious said...

Your friends are both insensitive and selfish. You just have to tell them calmly to be sensitive to the needs in the house. If they disregard you then they have to go otherwise they will drain you emotionally, financially and spiritually. Speak out or begrudge in silence.

Some people are like that, all they care about is them self, why should she be told to do little things in the house don't they have common sense I'm working you are working too.

Such friends when you are broke and down they will show u pepper!!!

I think it is totally unfair. Nect time, tell your friends from day 1 that these are the bills and this is what they have to contribute if they want to live with you. If they dobt like it, they should move out..... parasites. I have a brother in law too who has refused to move out despite the fact that he has been working/living with us for 3 years. He wants us to pay his rent first....mschewww

Pink Rush said...

My dear, I have been in your situation. The only way you will have peace of mind is to politely ask them to get their own place. Give them a deadline and stick to it. There are many friends who take advantage of people's kind gestures. But first, discuss the topic of their contribution to the house and needs of the house. I'm sure they know but want to be asked. You alone will know from their responses if they are willing to change and then make your decision....I've got to say Good luck though. Lol!. Kicking out friends isn't good business.

Juleslouis said...

Its not right. I've bn in this situation before and what i did was draw up a roaster of everything they use. Before i make any purchase they all must contribute. At a time, i came up with a welfare purse where we drop the same amount of money on a weekly basis. The money from this purse is used for foodstuff, water, fuel, servicing and d rest. Soon it became a norm. Some friends r just parasitic and inconsiderate.

As For me is not right u call them out and tell them that u not comfortable wit their attitude that is if u still want them to keep staying wit u if not ask them to leave coz u have try for them.

It Is wrong for them not to contribute. They are only being self centred.

It's really wrong to squat under someone and not contribute to the welfare of the house. I once had such experience what I did was to start eating outside, buy bottled water and pretended I had no money. It very common amongst the ladies.

ENNY said...

It's your house and your responsibility to take care of the bills, but if u think their presence in the house is affecting u financially- then u have all the right to ask them to start contributing towards the upkeep of the house or ask them to move out.

Human beings love to take advantage of things. The earlier you make it clear the better. If after the person stays a month and has never brought anything to d house, you have to then tell d person dat she should start contributing in d house. If she is angry she can leave . If d person has spent more than 3months my dear start sharing all bills with the person including shopping .if the person has spent one year, you both should divide the house rent and pay.

Kick them out. U no b mugu.

Dey must contribute to the upkeep because we All earn salaries

Prudence Muna said...

Not theirs?they live with u,make use of those tins,y wouldn't they contribute.My advice is;get another apartment if u can,wen d rent expires,move outta the haus with ur properties and c if they wouldn't take up their responsibility.For d mean time,stop doing the things u do,manage if u have to,make everything about you.Surely,they will come to you.

They should contribute at least for d sake of the comfortability of the person Ur staying with....its rili wrng to parasite on someone. I cud be generous but only when I'm loaded with money...at d slightest hint of depreciation I'l subtly start showing my irritation to that friend...dis issue is worse among uni girls...sme roommates hide their pocket money and live off your food and provisions

yawanow said...

Similar case but now used to it.
Face the problems with your friends, don't carry the burden alone.

Chy 🌹 said...

Those friends of urs r highly unreasonable..for their mind,u be santa-claus abi?...

If they won't contribute then stop feeding them...wen u wana cook,cook jes for urself alone...which kain selfishness be dat?

If they wia jobless,it would ve bin a different case...and I won't be surprised u buy their sanitary pads too..mtcheew!!!

Hell no, pay up or ship out

Miss Ferragamo said...

My dear some friends like feed-off people and it's very bad. The day you talk about it you become a bad person. The best thing is not to let them stay at all.

Unknown said...

Unknown said...

This is the problem with so many Nigerians. Too much awoof and showing sense full our blood. Pls u should let them know your plight if not they should leave. Some people are just parasites. For that 1 that doesn't have a job should stay n be doing the necessary house chores pending when he/she gets a job.

Unknown said...

That can't work with me. I will tell you to your face to care of those bills that is why we are friends. If the friend isn't working that is a different ball game. I can't keeping a friend working and stay in my house behave in this manner.

Inside Out said...

Ofcourse it isn't. ..They are called pests

Unknown said...

The thing is that most people seem to relax when they see a situation where another person takes care of them. It's very few people that would be willing to contribute. It's okay to tell them to contribute once in a while, when something needs to be done just meet them and tell them about it and collect money from them. Make it clear to them but not rudely that since they are staying that you cannot carry all the load and responsibilities alone. Let them know that they have to try and make things also comfortable for them but let them understand as much as you can that you aren't trying to be insulting to them just because you have a place. Some will understand, some won't but you are only human right? you can only do your best
