This behavior reveals everything about a person. Someone who says “yeah, whatever” to basic requests about shoes, doors, and pet safety has no interest in being a decent guest. They treat someone else’s home like a hotel with no consequences. They eat before arriving, then complain about dinner timing. They load the dishwasher without turning it on and leave dirty pots for the hosts. They pack up, abandon food in the fridge, and lie down while the hosts vacuum, wash linens, and clean the fridge before loading the car.
The boyfriend thinks cutting them off is overreacting because they share gaming and chess interests. Our girl knows what's up, sees the pattern, and rightfully decides it's over. A cat that gets sprayed and left vulnerable to escape does not need these people in her life. And the couple does not need friends who treat their pet like an annoyance and their home like a mess hall.
Friendships require mutual respect. These guests showed none. They got invited once. They will not get invited again. The boyfriend can keep them for online gaming and chess nights. But they get nothing in real life after a weekend of disrespect toward this woman, her home, and her cat.
