You have no idea how people act behind closed doors until you let them stay with you for a weekend.
I bet you could recall the worst house guest you ever had. That kind of experience leaves a real impression on a person! And, as some of the people below noted in their own stories, sometimes you have to cut a person off after they disrespect your humble abode.
As hosts, we never expect our guests to treat our homes poorly. Most of us were raised to be super polite when someone invites you into their space — helping out with dishes, making polite conversation, being quiet during nighttime hours, not using up all their soap or eating all their food. And yet, as you’ll read about below, some people had guests who’ve simply never heard of etiquette before, who are so wrapped up in their own wants and needs that they’re happy to leave someone else’s house worse than they found it.
