Today, my girlfriend got mad at me after she came over and found a female friend sleeping in my bed upstairs. I was sleeping on the couch in the basement. FML

First of all, any female friend sleeping in your bed, regardless of where you're sleeping at, is a big no-no, especially when your girlfriend isn't even in the house. Secondly, the fact that you didn't even let your girlfriend know about it beforehand, makes the whole situation even worse. For all we know, you could've cheated on your girlfriend, and then just slept in the basement to make it seem like you didn't. I actually think it's Fyourgirlfriend'sL, not FYL. I'm sure many people are on your girlfriend's side in this case, sorry to say.

I would have been upset too if my boyfriend had another girl sleeping in his bed regardless of where he was sleeping. I'm a jealous person I trust him but I'm a jealous person she could be the same way too it's the other girls you can't trust sometimes

You Absolutely Deserved It. I can't even begin to imagine why on Earth you thought this would be a good idea at all. As someone who has gone very similar situations, I really hope your girlfriend decides to move on, because you really don't seem to respect her feelings very much at all. Nor do you seem to even communicate what's going on, ask her if she would even be okay with it, or invite her over as well so she can at least be comfortable with this friend being over etc etc. So many things you Should have done instead. F Your Girlfriend's Life.

I'm not a jealous person but I'd see my arse at this. you didn't think to tell her??

Imagine you go to her house and find a guy in her bed. It wouldn't ****** matter where she is. Hopefully she's an ex now.

After all of you guys talking about how a chick would react to this situation, I had to check and make sure I still had a pussy. Seriously, my only question would be, "Why would you let her sleep in your bed if you have a couch in the basement ?" And if OP's username means that the chick specifically asked to sleep in his bed, I'd tell him to stay away from the weirdo because it's just plain creepy that she would choose his bed when she has another option.

Am I seriously the only one who wouldn't be bothered by this? And this is after I just broke up with my partner of four years after he told me he's been sexting another woman since January, so I have some serious trust issues going on! It's polite to let a guest have the best bed in the house, they often refuse it in my experience, but it should always be offered. Maybe you should have informed your girlfriend that your friend would be staying over, but I would only be mildly confused at the unexpected guest, not freak out that she was in his bed. Unless he was in there too, of course!

not everyone is so trusting especially after a bad relationship or if your current partner might have a bad reputation. communication is key in a relationship and the partner should have known some other woman was staying in their bed before coming into the house.

You obviously didn't read what #15 wrote, clearly.

Who pays the rent? If it's your place you can have anyone sleep on your bed whenever you want. That being said, it's kinda dumb to put yourself in this situation having a pissed off girlfriend. This was avoidable.

Before you hate OP too much, consider that he may have just been being polite to a guest. It is possible for men and women to be friends and completely non-sexual. For a long time I had only one bed in my home, and if I had a guest would offer them my bed (I even kept a change of sheets for guests) and sleep on the couch so they would be comfortable. Still, probably should've let the girlfriend know at least

It's a different scenario when OP didn't have the decency to even let his girlfriend know that a female friend was sleeping over. If you don't tell your girlfriend, doesn't that just draw suspicion?

I would expect a little bit of confusion, maybe even anger at first, but it's a pretty easily explainable situation. It should have been quite clear that OP wasn't in the bed with her, and from there explaining and talking between all 3 involved should've been handled like adults; in a calm, rational manner.

there should have been communication before that point... but yes if everyone involved are rational human beings then the situation should be easily rectified.

uhhhhh communication much?? you should have talked about that with your gf before letting a random girl sleep in your bed of course she got mad!

YDI, man If you have anyone that is not family or in a relationship sleeping in your bed, there's a serious issue. you should have, at the very least, let your girlfriend know and explain the situation
