    No one is banned from our house. I personally think it would have to be something pretty major for someone to be banned....

    My XSIL was not allowed at our house. She would come in and try to offer XH drugs in front of the kids. Not in my house not in front of my kids!!!

    I just realised this may have come across badly XH did not do drugs. XSIL had issues. But her behaviour was unacceptable in my house and in front of my children.

    I agree that banning someone from your house if a serious decision but also completely understable.

    DH & I have both banned his disgusting excuse for a human being sister from our home, life and all contact cut off from every member of our family.

    Theft, trying to sabotage our wedding on the day, abusive phone calls every few days for months, going to my friends and family and telling them I lied about miscarrying to get attention, telling me if DH died before we had a child, no matter how long we were together before that, they would fight for the family home, and make my life hell. Yeah, valid reasons to ban his family. And that's only some of it. A lot more happened direct to dh before we got together...

    The friend is a sleazy freak who hit on me while dh went to the bar, and gropes me while dh was standing there. Told dh it wasn't fair for him to be the only one getting a young bit of ass so he should share. I closed the door to that convo, moved away, told dh we needed to leave and that the man was not someone I'd ever associate with again. Funnily, dh wasn't real impressed and has only spoken to the friend once in the last four years since that happened...

    Most others, even if I'm not keen on them, I can tolerate for short periods. Bit these ones, hell no

    I'm so sorry you have had to deal with that and totally understand why this person is banned from your house. I just want to clarify when i said it would have to be something major to be banned i actually ment from my own house...sorry i wasn't very clear with that and i am sorry if you thought i otherwise that was not my intention!

    Have done it, DH's family in the past said weren't welcome and that if he wanted DS to see them he could take him to visit.

    All people are welcome to our house but sometimes i want to ban some people because they are visiting us with any notification.

    My reason for banning his friend aren't THAT serious just more i am very offended by his comments towards me and i don't want to be made to feel uncomfortable in my own home.

    it doesn't matter how "serious" your reasons, it's your "space" - your place to feel safe. irrespective of your reasons for it, if you are made to feel uncomfortable in your own space, your DP should have enough respect for you to adhere to your wishes. he doesn't have to agree, he doesn't have to understand. he just has to accept and respect it. it would be different if you were visiting someone else and this person was there - it's not your space, so you really just have to suck it up - but when it's your home, if you are made to feel uncomfortable by someone, it's time for your other half to man up and show you some respect
