Judgment Day

By Anonymous - 29/05/2016 12:06 - United States - Pratt

Today, my fiancé and I are house-sitting for my future in-laws for the next 3 weeks. They left a bible in both bedrooms, along with printouts of an article denouncing the "sin" of premarital sex. They're such complete whack-jobs, I wouldn't be surprised if they've set up hidden cameras everywhere too. FML

Respect their wishes for not having sex in their bedrooms and have it in the kitchen.

If you two ever need to get in the mood and aren't put off by homoerotisism, there's some pretty adorable stuff between Jonathan and David in the book of Samuel. "Then Jonathan made a covenant with David, because he loved him as his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him and gave it to David, and his armor, and even his sword and his bow and his belt" (Samuel 18:3).

Um, ever stop to think OP's real issue is how ridiculous they're being with the bibles and articles? If they're like that when OP's doing them a favor, I can't imagine how awful they are the rest of the time.

You can't have sex before marriage or you will go to hell, OPs parents are doing a great job.

Damn, you are like my favorite laundry detergent... *ultra downy*

I would have no issue with not having sex in their house if I were in OP's shoes. It's the obnoxiousness of their passive aggression that would put me off. If I left someone to house sit for me, I would outright ask them, "Please don't have sex in my house" because, frankly, it kind of skeeves me out to think of other people's nakedness on MY couch or whatever. However, if they want to go somewhere else to have sex, who am I to stop them? As long as the house I am paying them to watch isn't being neglected, they can go wherever else they want to have sex.

Holy shit really ? If they had wished OP and their fiancé not to eat and drink in their house *for three weeks* because they considered it sinful, should OP be "polite" and not do it ? Sex is natural, and having it in a house doesn't make the place impure or dirty. As long as they're careful about not leaving a mess of course, they should be able to do as they please ; owning a house doesn't let you control people's bodies while they are in it and doing you a favor...

Completely disagree #52. That's disgusting to have other people having sex in your bed/couch/chairs/carpet/etc. I don't care how natural it is. I don't want 2 other people's sex fluids in my home. Completely disrespectful and disgusting. This is why I would never have someone house sit for me. I don't care how well I know them. And yes. If it is MY HOUSE, I DO have the RIGHT to tell me what to do and not do. It is MY HOUSE.

That's a good solution. If you don't want other people screwing in your house don't leave them there to screw. OP's in-laws should have come up with that too...

Oh my God, #52. It's only 3 weeks. They aren't gonna die if they don't have sex for 3 weeks. That is not the same as eating and drinking.

I would die. But they don't have to be there 24/7. I would go back to my house if it was close by.

55 I couldn't agree with you more. I think that people should respect the house owner's wishes when they are house sitting, but the future in-laws didn't have to be so obvious about what they believe OP's self control is. I also hate the people you hire to babysit and then they invite their boyfriend or girlfriend over to 'have some fun'. This is while the kids in the next room. Honestly.

Then have some fun, just in case. Assume they do have cameras, and ham it up.

Your sexual decisions are made between your partner and you, and no one else. Pushy in-laws are something I'm dealing with myself.

#3 This is only true if you are carrying out the decisions in the privacy of your own home. If you are in public, or someone elses home you are then involving others in your decisions , like it or not. OP, my question is, did they say anything about the back yard? ;)

Respect their wishes for not having sex in their bedrooms and have it in the kitchen.

And in their living room, bathrooms, garden. Especially the garden. ?

No no no do it in the basement because it's nice and cool down there most times when things start heating up.

leave a couple of empty boxes of condoms next to the Bible's. You're adults and if you want to have sex that is none of their business.

#8 It is if they do it in the In-Laws house.

I wouldn't want people having sex in my house either

but you'd be OK with them taking a dump in your bathroom. As long as they don't soil your linen why does it matter what they do?

Do it in the shower. If they've set up cameras, they won't be in there otherwise it's just perverted.

I think setting up cameras to see if people have sex is already pretty damn perverted.

True, but then again home security cameras can do the same thing. You just shouldn't set them up in the shower.

Your house sitting do they expect things to turn?

in any case, they should be respecting trhe owner of the house by not having sex there; they can go to OP's house for a short while if they're really in he mood

Calling them whack-jobs online probably won't hurt anything either, though.

The key word there is probably. There is a chance, however slim, that it could cause some form of hurt. Why risk it when there is a better option. Dispense with the name calling, and be a mature adult instead.

I actually got that reference. Star Wars, for the win!

Yeah ; never got the concept of being an absolute doormat to some people just because they belong to your family. If they are complete whack-jobs (which they very much seem to be), they deserve to be called just that and put in their place. If they expect OP to act kindly and respectfully, so must they.

Calling them complete whack jobs to their face would be better! hahah

Is your soon to be father in law jack byrnes. Is this going to be a remake of Meet the parents?
