My BIL Demanded We Give Him and His Wife Our Bedroom While We Hosted Them on Their Honeymoon

When my brother-in-law Jack and his wife Sally asked to honeymoon at our scenic Sunset Cove home, my husband Simon and I welcomed them. But their week-long stay became a nightmare. Ignoring our refusal, they took over our master bedroom, claiming the guest room’s air mattress wasn’t romantic enough. Worse, they devoured the food for our daughter Alicia’s birthday party, leaving her in tears. I had to spend $195 to replace

everything. Simon’s parents, alerted by Alicia’s distress call, arrived and confronted Jack and Sally, forcing them to leave for a hotel. No apology came, just complaints about us “ruining” their honeymoon. Simon’s parents sent flowers and money to cover the groceries, reaffirming our stance. This taught me family doesn’t justify disrespecting boundaries. Standing firm cost us their approval, but preserved our peace. Have you dealt with family overstepping? Share your story—I’d love to hear how you handled it.
