‘AITA for refusing to leave my friend’s flat even though it disrespected his girlfriend’s boundaries?’

In a recent situation, a woman named OP found herself at odds with her friend’s girlfriend over boundaries during a visit. [OP], who had moved abroad with her boyfriend, traveled back to her old university town to see her long-time friend Callum (24m). Callum, who is pursuing his PhD and living in shared accommodation, had generously offered [OP] a place to stay on a blow-up mattress in his room.

During the visit, [OP] met Callum’s girlfriend, Hannah, for the first time. As the evening progressed and Callum’s friends began to leave, Hannah expressed discomfort with [OP] staying in Callum’s room. Despite [OP] explaining her predicament—having no other accommodation options—Hannah insisted she felt it was inappropriate for [OP] to stay, citing concerns about her boundaries and past history, which [OP] assured were nonexistent.

Refusing to leave without an alternative place to stay, [OP] spent the night as planned. The next day, Callum contacted [OP] requesting a call to discuss an issue Hannah had raised. Hannah had reportedly told Callum that [OP] had disrespected her boundaries and that he should cut off contact with her. [OP]’s boyfriend deemed Hannah’s demands unreasonable, and [OP] was uncertain whether she should apologize.

In a follow-up discussion, [OP] and Callum clarified the situation. Callum revealed that Hannah had initially agreed to [OP]’s stay but later contradicted this, fabricating issues to justify her discomfort. It emerged that Hannah had a history of manipulating Callum into cutting off female friends, making false claims about their intentions. Callum, upon discovering Hannah’s deceit, ended their relationship and apologized to [OP] for the misunderstanding.

In summary, Callum’s ex-girlfriend, Hannah, had used emotional manipulation to isolate him from female friends by fabricating stories about them. Following the revelation of Hannah’s deceit, Callum and [OP] reconciled, and Callum promised to make amends.
