BJ.....you have enough of your own personal wahala and do not need additional wahala biko. If aunty had caused you previous headache when she stayed over, it's fine to remain resolute with your decision. That's what grownups do.....they make sensible decision and stick by it. Dont get emotionally manipulated into giving in....she can stay with her lover tonight while you discuss the arrangement tomorrow. Cheers Maami.

With all these red lights, u better let her know it won't be possible.

I came to realise in this life that the word 'NO' have built more great men than the word 'Yes'

If you don't learn how to say NO you will have a very miserable life. All successful people learnt to say NO. You should not even open a thread about this. It's just common sense and I believe you have one. Haba.

I use to have this challenge too, I hate to say NO to anyone even though the decision will be to my own detriment.. It's not easy but your decision is final especially as she stressed you the last time..
Don't displease yourself to please someone else.. Shikena..

Sebi you've spoken and you said tomorrow, right? When she said she would look for someone to stay tonight, just dont respond again. Leave it till tomorrow.

Meanwhile, you need to change your circle of friends. You need to change your community. Next year shall be great for you! Enough of inadequacies in your life! May fortune smile at you. Pele.

What make her to have problem with her neighbour? Let her not come and created another problem for you with your own neighbour. If she her self is not ready to solve her own problem but want to run. All these fairweather abokis.
