So, who wants to give our lovely guests the death sentence?
About ten years ago I was on Battle.net playing Starcraft. I have always hated the idea of scheduling a time online, which is why I could never get into clans and guilds, but I ended up being an “honourary member” of a small little Starcraft clan so I could play, as the Protoss, a few rounds against the same trustworthy and reasonably decent players.
The clan leader was a blond-blue-eyed swimmer from east New York named Greg, and over the years we ended up visiting one another several times. The last time I saw Greg was on New Years Eve about 6 years ago when he came up to Canada to bypass the age-21-drinking-laws in New York for the relaxed Sin-City-of-the-North rules that recommend you be kind-of 18ish.
When the UFC (some wrestling/fighting show) announced plans to perform in Montreal, Greg arranged to come up, and I offered him the guest room. He declined at first saying he was coming with his ex-girlfriend, and I said it would be no problem at all.
She turned out to be a great girl, and anyone who loves Banjo is a friend of mine. I ended up taking a few days off and Greg came a few days early and we spent some time hanging out around town, and drinking.
Greg and his ex slept in separate rooms and generally being good guests. On Saturday night I gave them a house-key since they would be home at God-knows-when and probably half drunk. They were planning on taking a cab home. When Ben and I woke up Sunday morning, Greg was no where to be found, but the guest room door was closed tight. The sleeping arrangements had changed abruptly.
Around 9:30 Ben and I were having a cup of coffee in the kitchen when he said “Do.. you.. hear something?” Listening, I said I could. Turns out the estranged couple had reunited in our guest room.
All that pre-amble to ask: Is it appropriate for out-of-town guests to have sex at a friends house?
I would have preferred not to have been aware of it at the time. Some people I’ve asked have said its absolutely inappropriate and others have said its no big deal. I think I’m somewhere in the middle on it. Is this offensive to anyone here?
