A woman has divided the internet over a dilemma she has faced when it came to kicking out her sister's boyfriend from the home they share together.
The woman took to popular online forum website, Reddit, to explain the situation she has found herself in to ask for some advice. She explained how she has recently moved in with her sister. with her sibling having met her new boyfriend as they were moving in.
The woman noted that she was excited to have her own space, and wanted to walk around the home in "any state I choose" without any judgement.
However, she thought both her sister and boyfriend were out, and had been relaxing in her room when she heard a noise.
The partner was still there and she asked him why he was still in, to which he didn't respond - and left a little over 15 minutes later.
She has now worried she has offended the boyfriend, asking the internet if she had been unreasonable.
Writing on Reddit, the anonymous sister said: "I recently moved in w my older sister. I did not know she was seriously dating anyone before but meet her boyfriend when moving in.
"This is my first time living anywhere besides our moms house so was excited to be able to walk around my own house in any state i choose when alone.
"The only mode of transportation that the boyfriend uses is my sisters car so when she leaves the house so does he - or so I thought.
"On one other occasion he was still at the house after my sister left and I was not aware.
"After this, I asked that my sister let me know if he would be at the house when she is not.
"In a rush today she forgot to tell me, and I realised he was here when I heard a door close in the house after she left.
"I knocked on her bedroom door and when he answered, I said out loud, 'why are you still here' exasperatedly.
"Like 15 mins later I heard him leave the house and he didn't say anything, but i think he already has an opinion about my attitude because of an incident when moving in - so I think he might have been offended.
"Am I the a******?"
People have been left divided over the situation, and hundreds of comments rolled in about the situation.
One Reddit user said: "You are the a****** for chasing other people's guests out of the house, wtf?
"Your sister is also an a****** for leaving her guest unattended at their house and leaving, even after you told her you had a problem with that.
"The boyfriend...well, probably no one ever told him you had such a problem with him being there with you "alone", and even in this case he didn't make a big deal out of your attitude, cant really call him an a******.
"If you have a problem with your roommates guests, talk to your roommate, not the guests. Regardless of the family situation."
Another said: "But as a guest, why would you stay at a place where your host is no longer there? And you know her sister lives there too. Like that’s also pretty rude and inconsiderate."
A third argued: "Seems like you and your sister need to have a discussion about privacy and guests just so you both can express how you want this living situation to go.
"I’m sorry, but I would be extremely uncomfortable if I woke up in my house and my sister’s boyfriend was there and she was not. While you could’ve been nicer about it, it is what it is.
"Try to practice have a more tact though, you don’t know how long this boyfriend may be around and you don’t want anymore awkward situations."
And another noted: "You guys need to sit down and come up with a few 'house rules'.
"Maybe that guests can only sleepover so many times a week and must leave at the same time as the person who brought them unless there is a conversation about it or something like that."
And one concluded: "Your tone could have been a little nicer but you need to talk to your sister about privacy in your own place."
