Should I Accommodate Him Or Close My Doors On Him by Faber(m): 10:45am On Oct 05, 2022
Hello my people. I have an issue at hand. There's this guy I barely know, we met in my new hood, and we became friends. He is from a place I spent almost my childhood years in, that's what made me to fancy him, based on childhood memories of that great town, and they are generally good people. But I don't know his parents, brothers, family members etc.
So we see each other almost everyday. We go out and watch football matches and catch fun together, he is a nice guy, though with some flaws(everyone get their own flaws) , but his own is that he is a chronic gambler. Card gambling, virtual soccer etc. He gambles almost everyday.

Now he was issued quit notice from his house and he wants to move into my space temporarily, until he gets money to rent a new apartment. He's been to my house and slept over several times. I live in a two bedroom and parlour apartment, all alone, one of the rooms is even empty, I just use it as washroom.

So after discussing with him yesterday, I told him I will get back to him, he needs to move out of his old house latest this weekend.

So guys, I need your advice, I never lived together with another person before all through my life. Should I go ahead or should I just close my doors on him. My mind is telling me to look him straight face in the eye and tell him"am sorry guy, I wish I could help you out" But another thought is telling me to help a brother

Tricky situation. He's got a bad habit - gambling. What if he begins to steal from you to service his gambling addiction? From experience, people you can allow to live with you are those who are of excellent character that mirrors yours.
Since he knows you have enough space, I believe he's come to stay till you'll have to chase him away and spoil the friendship.

My advice: take him in, give him your rules subtly - likes and dislikes. Nothing must get missing and to uphold your privacy. If he breaks your rules after one or two warnings, kick him out.

Don't make that mistake cuz even your terms and conditions won't matter in a long run.

Shit can go south real quick than you expected

Use your head and fix the rest of the puzzle I don't want to talk too much.

Come up with a better excuse to let him know he can't stay at your place ASAP...forget what you know cuz you barely know the nigga man.

But if your God feeling say make you help I'm not against that in anyway

My opinion

First ask him how long he intends to stay and get a definite answer from him, and let him know the time period you are comfortable with. That will put him on his toes. But help him. We all need him sometimes

I'll tell you something if you're uncomfortable with him staying then find a subtle way of refusing. We live in a very terrible time, or you can allow him but give him time and your rules which he must adhere to.

Don't do it!

If you are the kind that usually stays at home. The dude will see you finish and start misbehaving in your house. I have first hand experience. Even for a week don't allow him! angry I repeat don't! .

It is better the relationship turns sour now than after he he has come and showed you pepper.

As someone that was previously nice and accommodating. I am giving you first hand experience.

Some idiotic guys claim never to do house chores. Mr Alpha males that don't wash their plates, don't sweep. He may want to eat your food but eat his alone. He may drink garri with your plates and leave it to dry up and dump for you to wash. May never help you out with something but want you to help. May want to start bringing girls and too many friends home. You might not be comfortable with all these I just said I should tell you. The thing is if table turns and you need a place too he won't even let you spend the night. A word is enough for the wise. As you see me so as guy man so I can't let anybody sleep over in my house o. You can visit me and play with me from morning till night but when evening reach abeg dey go your house and your visits must never be frequent. It is like you never had roommate in uni abi? The choice is yours

I believe you are a woman. Sister, you can't accommodate him for more than 48 hours. Within that period, he should be able to reach his family and friends. If it's total helplessness, go and get a police report that nothing must touch you before you allow him stay.
He may be a good man but time ll prove it.

Don't allow him. I don't think you should help him. So he doesn't have other guys or relative around to stay with?
Why wasn't he able to renew his rent?
Staying with you has always been at the back of his mind. In this part of the world, people take advantage of nice people. See finish go enter. If you don't help him he will still be fine. He won't die.

In this life learn to follow your mind you can never go wrong when you do... You aren't totally comfortable with him staying with you. You had to come online for advice. Those telling you to let him stay won't be there when shit goes down.
You see that mind telling you not to allow him and you're fighting cos you're being sentimental. Don't be sentimental. Follow your guts

You wanna accomodate a chronic gambler undecided

Your equipments at home are all goners

Isay throw that fruitless thing on the street only then can you have peace.. even if you wanna render help to anyone never render help to men.. you'd regret it later. ..

And why was he served a quit notice?
Guess he gambled away his savings

Use your head

You should know your gender got nothing to offer aside pains and chaos
