  • My husband has a 47 year old son with a close to 60 husband. Both if them do not have work and no means of income.

  • The stepson and his husband bring nothing except a talent for financial struggle and the kind of emotional drama that could be syndicated. The narrator already knows the ratings plummet when roommate life casts her in every scene. Setting boundaries in this setup requires more backbone than budgeting, and that’s saying something when the new tenants still treat work as an imaginary concept.

  • They have managed to live with my husband's ex wife but now they are in financial difficulty and will lose the house they occupy.

  • None of them generate an income and will therefore have to move in with someone who is willing.

  • My husband has without my knowledge told them that they can move in with us. I do not get along with my stepson and we are both very difficult people to live with.

  • I have previously told my husband that I know what will happen with the two of us in our small house, so if he moves in I will leave.

  • I told my husband in so many words that he can either have his son in his house or a wife and partner to grow old with.

  • He just says he cannot see his son turned out in the streets if we have a bedroom dir them.

  • Am I the ah le for leaving him?

  • If someone ever wondered what the phrase “too many cooks in the kitchen” sounds like in real life, it lives here. Sometimes protecting sanity means letting charity stop at the front porch. Sharing a house should not be a test of endurance. Who knew growing old together would suddenly involve so many people not aging gracefully, just refusing to move on.

  • FormSuccessful1122 NTA No one wants unemployed adults mooching in their home.

  • MovieLazy6576 NTA. Consult with a divorce attorney about how to protect your assets.

  • SaltyLove555 Why can't they get jobs and get a place?

  • Comfortable-Focus 123 NTA - This is a "two yes" situation. Both of you need to agree for this to happen, and since you do not, it should be a "No."

  • MarionberryWilling32 You need to move all of your stuff into that open bedroom today. Once you are in the bedroom, let him know they can live in his room.

  • TheLordOfTheThighs2 NTA. You set a clear boundary about what you can handle in your own home, and your husband went behind your back. Moving three adults with no income into a small space is a huge strain emotionally, financially, and practically. You're not unreasonable for saying you won't live in that situation. He needs to respect your home and your boundaries; if he can't, it's on him, not you.

  • nemainev NTA... he can di on that hill and that's not an AH move by itself, but going behind your back is going into unforgivable land. Now it appears that you are two , given the age of old stepson & co, so that's even worse because a man in his probably 70s? should know better not to fuck over their wife like that. So if you drop his a you can't be faulted.

  • CrankyWife You husband can move in with them and financially support their household. No need to allow them to invade your space. Protect your peace.

  • NarwhalFew7632 So does this mean your husband and you will now be supplying 2 grown men with everything like they are kids? Does your retirement now get blown on 2 lazy leaches? If they worked and need a place to stay for a few months that's one thing but he is going to fully support them and you are going to clean and cook for them? Helllll NOOO00

  • DazzlingPotion You are NTA because once they move in they will never leave and you and your husband will have to support them for the rest of your natural life. I'd suggest you start making an exit plan to leave.
