Mystery Woman.

What would be your reaction if your husband or boyfriend of three years decides to bring another woman in the home without asking your permission?
In this case, the husband claims that the woman is a long time friend of his who needs a place to stay for awhile. After three months she is still there.
Needless to say the wife is not happy about the situation. She told me resignedly when asking my advice that the house belongs to him so she has to accept his decision.
Does she have to? What would you do if you were in her place?
She and her husband both work out.

I would move out for sure. This is so humiliating.

I would say it is me or her, and make good on it.

@Kandae11 In my man's life, I would think I was his #1 woman and be treated as such. For him to not take my feelings or anything into consideration would make me wonder about the way he makes his choices/decisions regarding us as a couple. And how about this "friend"? As a woman, I would never intrude on a couple's territory - she should know better too (unless she has other motives ).

Well knowing what I know now, I would just let him do as he please and me leave.

She needs to walk out, right now. Staying there is accepting what he did, and it won't change unless she leaves.

She has to put her foot down or leave...there really isn't a choice for her, unless she actually wants the lady to stay permanantly. Ugh.

What a terrible situation! I don't know what I would tell her, but she needs help.

@Kandae11 I totally can understand how stressful that is for her. Does the husband have any kind of legitimate excuse for the woman being there so long?

@1creekgirl. He keeps saying she needs more time. Meanwhile the electricity bill has gone up - extra use of fans, lights etc.

I would have studied the woman's attitude closely. If she is surely homeless, I would have considered her stay in my husband's house as not all women are bad, but if I had the slightest doubt that they had an evil design, I would have walked out.

@Kandae11 Yes, that's right. He should have discussed it with his wife before bringing in the other woman.

I have seen instances where a woman might try to help another woman and invite her to her home. Then when her back is turned that same woman tries to flirt with her husband.
I hope in this case the husband is being truthful , but there is no excuse for not first discussing it with his wife.

He should ask me first if I allow his girl friend to stay with us in the house. I will allow it for a few days and then after that, I have to get rid of her in a kind way. If it is my husband, I have the right to stay by his side even if it is his bought house. The woman should leave, not me.

Actually, since they are married the house belongs to both of them so it is not just up to him to decide who can stay. They should have discussed a timeline for her to find a place to stay beforehand, and after that she had to go. Since they did not discuss one, she needs to address it once and for all with him. If a compromise is not reached, then she should sort out her feelings and decide whether a divorce is the solution. Successful marriages need communication and compromise. Seems he is unwilling to do either.

Has she tried asking the friend how long she plans to stay? And how she met the husband? And how much longer is she going to stay? And where she met the husband? And how much longer is she going to stay?
If the man and woman are married, then why is it "his" house?

@Kandae11 If she's married to him, I'd agree, it is a family home, His and his wife's.

In a good marriage everything is discussed. Each partner has respect for the other. Even if one person wants to adopt a dog or cat, the other should have say in whether that happens. Having another woman in without talking about it is beyond me. Same with me- any extra human, male or female, must be mutually allowed in. Or not.

Definitely no respect there. The way l see it , they were a couple for some years before deciding to get married, surely she must have known the kind of person he is.like his having a lot of friends, taking the initiative without discussing important matters etc. etc. People do not change overnight.
