The last time I had guests, I realized that it is a very thankless task. I tell you why.
First you have to go to the store, cook food, then wash mountains of dishes, clean the apartment before the guests come, and after they leave. And not all guests are nice. For all this to spend an incredible amount of time and effort. And afterwards, there’s no enjoying spending time with guests and no rest.
In addition, there are guests who are annoying because they feel at home, but forget the second part of the proverb about the fact that they are still guests.
Such characters are not shy to climb into all the lockers and nightstands, feel and even measure your clothes, use your computer without asking, which can be a working computer and it stores many important files and documents, but even without that you do not want to go to social networks and look at pictures, because everything that is allowed to see is on public display. They can also go into the fridge and take food without asking. It’s really annoying!
In addition, no one will ever help you set the table or clean up after a feast, and some sit up until late at night and do not realize that it’s time to go, and kick out does not allow education.
I was able to find a way out of the situation – a trip to a restaurant or cafe. There everyone pays for himself and there is an operating mode. Another option – a holiday in nature, everyone brings something of their own, everyone cooks, everyone cleans up.
My friends are mostly of the same opinion as I am. Perhaps my expressed opinion will help you change your attitude about hosting. Meet with friends and family to relax, not to get tired.
