Default How do i tell the lodger nicely?????

that he is hogging my pc. I cant ever get on it as he is addicted to facebook. I cant remeber telling him that it was ok to use. He just took advantage.

I dont mind but feel bad if i have to ask to use my own PC.

I want to hint for him to get a laptop with wireless and he can use that.


But i dont want to upset him as im not the upsetting type of person.

So suggestions o mighty ones of org land.

Who's house it it

Taking liberties if you ask me. Just tell him you don't mind him using it once in a while, but please ask first and try to limit your time on it.

put a password on it so he has to come find you and ask permission. If he starts being a bit of a tit about it then tell him politely that you may have to up the rent for the privilege. If he can take advantage of one thing what's to stop him suddenly 'popping in your room' to find a spot of loo roll or summat and maybe having a snoop? Boundaries!

Saying that I have no idea what he is like and he might be the nicest of guys who pays dead on time and behaves but still, you are doing him a favour letting him into your house

tell him to stop using it without your permission. if he is taking advantage with that and you say nothing he will start taking advantage with all sorts of stuff. you will end up havingto put a lock on the fridge and maybe even your bedroom door.
