ugh I'm so very irritated. An extremely distant cousin came to New York and asked if he could stay the other day before he got here. I said no. My place is absolutely not set up for overnight guests, especially right this very moment. But he's got himself in a weird situation so he's on his way here now. I'm trying not to be a complete bitch but it's really fucking rude to even consider crashing at someone's house if they didn't offer in a place like New York City. It's a really city newbie thing to do and I DO NOT LIKE IT ONE BIT. I need to turn my cunty snark down by 68% before he gets here.
- go out, don't come back for a few daysautoflavour
- pfft... I wish. I have shit to do. The last time family did this to me, I did actually just leave. I couldn't get my work done and 3 people completely took overshellie

- fuck me... family sucks sometimesPonyBoy
- could you elaborate on the weird situation he got himself into?hotroddy
- He got a one way ticket to be with some girl, and that did not work out in less than 48 hours. He's gotta go in the morning. Can't stay here, bruh.shellie
- plus, he came empty handed and totally broke. I'm sorry this is a hard lesson he's gunna have to learn on a park bench bc that's wild.shellie
- hotels, hostels in NYC & BK aren't cheap. Even a couch on airbnb is $30 a night. How in the fuckin fuck do u come to NYC without money? Thats a bad kinda crazyshellie

- One of the inspoken things about being a New Yorker is that you become the NY ambassador to outside family and friends. Help him out and be sure he returns theinstrmntl
- favor.instrmntl
- You have bills, you have to focus. You said no. That was your free will and he took that from you and in a rude manner. Its effected your mental balance so do .mugwart
- ... what you need to, to balance it all out.mugwart
- Let him stay 1 night. Use that night to give him a good talking to. It's family.Hayzilla
- Just stay really quiet and don't answer the door for a few days.elahon

- AND this morning he just walked into my female roommates room. she's on a broadway show rn she wasn't home but if she was she woulda freaked out.shellie
- Im not an ambassador to someone who is clearly taking advantage. I've never stayed anywhere this rudely, even when i was on a (band) tour.shellie
- When i say distant cousin i mean married in step cousin type stuff. i don't even know him. We met once at a concert a literally a decade ago.shellie
- ive hosted my bfs mom in LA and New York. His sister moved in w/me after a school break from Japan for 8 months. im pretty reasonable for immediate fam/friends.shellie
- Did I mention he told me he spent time in jail within the first 5 min? Recently divorced (not terrible) has never met his 1 yr old daugher (terrible).shellie
- this was my face O__Oshellie
- blew all the money he had on cabs weed & food to impress some girl only for her to say "but you can't live here dude" none of this was sound descison making.shellie
- wow.nb
- Make him clean the place, run errands etc. and give him a 2 night maximumProjectile

- oh not a chance. His jail time had something to do with sexual assult. im not surprised. the way this all happened made me uncomfortable with every step.shellie
- he was abused as a kid and i feel sorry for him, but i don't feel safe at all in his presence. he could rob me if my bf wasn't here. he actually came backshellie

- O_Opango
- haha i kind of pulled the same(not really) thing with my cousin when i was in her city. Only half a nite tho. i needed to take a night before i party till mornipango
- if you dont feel safe and he is walking into someone else's room - with a history of violence - get him out. Tell his family and kick him out.mugwart
- also i'm more of a together person... i think.
Now she's in my city in 2 days. I really can't say no lol.pango - *night = nap....pango
- He's gone Mug. But he made me kick him out twice for Christ's sake. I had a director not take a firm pass on a project recently. i bring that out in ppl.shellie
