When People Will Not Leave

GUESTS WHO OVER STAY THEIR WELCOME

Alright, So I am a new college student and I finally live on my own. My roommate and I are very chill with who each other are friends with, and who hangs out with us. Than there are people who take advantage of our kindness.

A. The Friend- This is the person who thinks that you are good friends with them and they stay in the room uninvited. Even when hints are mentioned to leave they cant take it. Sometimes one of us will pretend that we are tired, sick, or we have homework, and ignore out guest (rude I know) and they still will not leave. We dont want to be full out rude and say..."Dude, get out of our room". Sometimes we need to get to that point.

B.The Family Member- Everyone has one of these. The family member who always arrives late to a family gathering and feels that they have the right to stay later now. Thus equalling be the hostest for even longer than needed, and loosing sleep and relaxation. I mean after a long family party who doesnt want to relax. Than there is the one person who thinks they need to stay. Its sad but family members cant even take the hint.

C.The Kid Crushing- We being two single young ladies are "on the market" I suppose and guys are looking to snatch us up. We only mean to be friends with these kids so we ask them to hang out, not knowing they are crushing on us. Than...THEY DONT LEAVE. One movie, a munchie run, and some stupid reality tv show later...they are still sitting here. We are doing absolutly nothing and they need to stay...for what reason? Who knows. Than they invite themselves over...but thats for another day.

D.The Weirdo- Sometimes there are just weird people who will not leave. One girl will come in here and read a book or stare into space...well be busy doing homework or on our computers and she just sits here...staring...no converstation. Or she will come in here and read. It's a little weird. We'll hint for her to leave but she wont.

This brings me to my final question. How do you get someone to leave without being completely rude? Most people cant take a hint, and it's always weird to be the one who has to be blunt and say....LEAVE NOW! Cant people get the vibe that they are no longer wanted in a space after like...5 hours or 5 minutes. I know I can tell.
