Living in Central London can be a dream come true for many, but for one woman, it has become a source of frustration. Her husband’s friends, Edward and Beth, frequently visit the city and have made a habit of staying in their spare room. Initially, she didn’t mind, but as the visits continued, she began to feel like they were being used as a free Airbnb. When she finally confronted her husband about the issue, he dismissed her concerns. Now, she’s left wondering if she’s overreacting or if her feelings are justified.
