Ever have The Friend Who Wouldn't Leave?
Advertisements [?]
Mr. Sky has a long-time friend who we only saw sporadically for years. About 4 months ago, a unit at our place came up for rent and the Mr. suggested it to Friend who moved in.

He's here every day after work, drinks gallons of booze in a very short time (the Mr.'s booze) and is tough to get rid of. I'm pretty blunt but this is compounded by the fact that his only brother died suddenly less than a year ago, he's very needy and looks to my husband as his replacement brother.

Before we realized what a pill he was, we had invited him to be the witness at our wedding which was held during our camping trip. He now blissfully tells us that "next year when we go, I'm going to stay the whole week!" :wtf: I don't recall inviting him at all.

We talked about it last night and my husband is going to talk to him and tell him flat out that he needs to lay off the booze. Beyond that, any suggestions? He actually is a nice guy - not the brightest crayon in the box but a nice guy - and I don't want to completely cut him off.
