As an introvert, there’s nothing worse to me than guests who come unannounced. It’s especially unnerving when people who know me do this: family members, good friends, or even old acquaintances.
For this woman, it was her MIL who used to show up uninvited at her and her husband’s house. After one particular time, when the MIL brought a guest who was a complete stranger to the couple and proceeded to have lunch, the DIL decided she’d had enough. She blasted her MIL online and asked whether she was overreacting.
To learn more about how the woman could’ve handled the uninvited guests, Bored Panda reached out to Nikesha Tannehill Tyson, an etiquette expert at The Swann School of Protocol and author of Going Public: Culture, Custom, and Class for Social Success. She kindly agreed to tell us whether it’s appropriate to show up at a family member’s house unannounced and how to politely signal the end of a guest’s visit.
