Thankfully, he asked me if that was okay

Unfortunately, he asked me when they were RIGHT THERE.

I told him we should ask the other housemate, but you better believe I was LIVID. I am absolutely not going to let people crash here for free. What the fuck is wrong with that guy???

You should have. You say no, your housemate says yes so the other housemate gets the deciding vote.

It's not just up to you though. It's between the three of you. Providing you at least said no then the cards will fall wherever they will.

That sounds horrible. My college roommate used to invite his friends over and a bunch of my food/toiletries would end up eaten/used. It sparked a lot of arguments. I can't imagine them actually living with us. I just don't understand people who get invited to someone's place and start touching shit that doesn't belong to them.

Hopefully your roommate comes to his senses. Even if they're extremely nice people, it's still a very risky move.

I get that he wants to help them (probably his friends or something), but he should definitely have consulted you waaaaay before.

Make sure everyone is aware what date 2 weeks is (November 4th they should be gone then?). Sometimes 2 weeks becomes 2 years.

I had an issue with that once. Personally, I dont mind if people invite their family or SOs over, as long as they dont actually live here (unless they pay rent). I also dont mind inviting friends over, or staying for a few days. But when my old roommate was basically letting people live with us, I wasnt happy. There were at our house more than he was. And more than I was, as well. And they kept grabbing my stuff. Like food, drinks, etc. They should only be eating my roommates stuff. He always said hed buy me more stuff. But not the same brands sometimes. Id just get money from him and have to buy everything again. But they were like that wherever they went. And made people not want them around. Like when one of them went to someones house and cooked and at the steaks (I think) she was marinating for like a day or two or something. Both of them. She was mad as she was making them for two people as a thank you gift for helping her move something. There were only a few of them I didnt mind. One girl cleaned up after all of them, as well...

Two weeks may turn into two months... It's one thing for family or friends, but strangers is different.

You could turn this into a Couch Surfing type of deal. If they don't pay rent then they are responsible for cooking and/or cleaning.

Hell yes. Spelled out in no uncertain terms. In writing and signed by both people that will be staying. Otherwise two weeks can turn into three, then four, now they have mail coming to the house, then they claim residence and now you have to go through legal proceedings to have them evicted. Then your landlord kicks you out for violating the lease by having more people than listed living there.

They sign a paper acknowledging when they are to leave. Or forget it. An unemployed bum and a girl who hates her job who both have a ton of credit card debt. Good luck.

If you had half a sack, this wouldn't have mattered.

Assuming you and your housemate (and other housemate) are all going in equally on rent (assuming this is rental and not owned), you're fully entitled to put your foot down and say no. Or at least tell him straight up that he's an asshole for not asking you first, and then trying to emotionally blackmail you into saying yes by asking you while the people in question were right there.

I'd have turned right to the two people and gone "Look, no offense, but I don't even remotely know you and I'm not cool with you living here". Maybe even going so far as to point out that if my housemate had asked me in private first I might have said yes, but now I'm saying no just on principle.

Also, "hates her job" really isn't justification for living with someone rent-free.

It shows that their stay is merely a visit and they were nothing more than temporary guests. If they stay beyond their agreed upon visitation period at that point they can be considered trespassing and would make it easier to get rid of them if they chose not to leave.

And why must you always be so insufferable? The smugness and condescension that oozes out of so many of your posts is just lame. You choose PotD, of all places, to come and act superior.

I dont care how poor you are, if you stay somewhere for weeks, and you dont offer shit, youre a fucking bum. $150 is the least those people can offer for being here for 14 days.

I dont associate with leeches or bums, and Im absolutely not gonna waste my time by chatting with them idly while they sit in our living room for 24 hours a day while not offering a fucking thing.

They were both in the downstairs bathroom at the same time when I left this morning.

I know they werent actually banging in there, but that room is like 4 x 4 feet, and one of them was definitely using the toilet while the other was brushing their teeth, and I really cannot think of too many things more classless than doing that in someone elses home.

If you didnt want them to stay you should've said something. But also the way you are talking about them like there trash and scum is kind of fucked.

It does also sound like though they arent doing anything worthwhile. Yeah like someone else said, at the 2 week mark make sure to let them know they need to leave. And if they refuse, you can use legal matters if need be.

I know him well enough to know he doesnt care.

Neither of those guys are as clean as me, so they probably dont give a shit about other people stinking up my air, especially when those two have NEVER cleaned anything the entire time Ive lived in this house. I take care of all of that by myself.

Even the dishes.

i went away for a few days just last month, and by the time I got back, the sink was piled high with absolutely filthy dishes and they didnt give a shit. Its the one thing I hate about the two of them.

Like I said, if someone opens their doors to you for a period of time, and you offer nothing in return, not money, not food, not fucking offering to clean, youre trash.

The fact that they both look like trash on top of it is icing on the cake.

Im decent with people in social settings and work and stuff, but having to deal with them at home, one of the only areas I can really be at peace, is severely stressful for me. My social anxiety cant deal with this shit 16 hours a day.

It took me like 3 months just to get used to my two housemates, and Im still getting over my shit.

This is the same issue I had with my roommate and my girlfriend coming from Japan. He was a greedy fucking crackhead though and Id known him for years. For him it wasnt about her paying her share because she was staying in my room and we didnt pay utilities, it was about him affording more crack.

So yeah I dunno man. I guess depending on how long youve known these guys and whether or not you want that animosity between you should help you decide whether its worth saying something.

Just put all your stuff away in case theyre thieves.

Do not take rent. It'll be harder to get em out. Can be as long as 60 days before you can evict them if it goes south. And do not throw any of their shit out for 60 days after they leave give em written notice it has to be out within 60 days or it's trash.

I actually installed a lock on my door when I moved in. I dont leave it locked when just the two are around, because I actually do trust and like them, but Ive been locking the door to the room if I do much as go to the bathroom thats 4 feet from my room.

Not that I have too much of value there. I brought my switch over to my sisters place under the guise of letting my niece have a month to mess around with it. I dont keep too much physical cash on my person at all times, no more than $60, so Im all gold there.

Just have some Switch games hidden away under my laundry basket (yes, Im very paranoid around these people >_>) and a PS3 that my other housemates make fun of me for having.

Im not even this bad around most people. These newbies just have my anxiety soaring sky high. Idk if I have some sort of sixth sense or the thought of them staying here for such a prolonged time is setting me off.
