Every time the coworker and his wife visit, he takes it upon himself to critique his wife’s housekeeping skills, always comparing her unfavorably to the hostess.

The digs aren’t light either—they often lead to fights or her leaving in tears.

Attempts to diffuse the situation have gone nowhere, and now the hostess has had enough.

Check it out.

AITA for telling my husband not to invite his coworker over anymore due to his marital issues

Long story short, the coworker’s wife and I are both SAHMs.

Whenever they are over, he makes crappy comments unfavorably comparing her housekeeping skills to mine.

Sometimes it upsets her to the point of them fighting or her leaving to cry.

Oookay, well that’s rude.

Any tack I’ve taken to diffuse the situation hasn’t worked.

From pointing out I’m dealing with a very different husband or plainly stating I don’t appreciate these comments, he twists it into an opportunity to continue making the statements.

I told my husband I don’t mind if we get the kids together outside or home but I don’t want them here anymore.

Fair enough.

He thinks their relationship issues aren’t our business and we should just try to ignore the comments.

He seems to think this is all because I feel bad for her and she’s the one who is with him so we shouldn’t worry about her choice more than she does.

But it creates an unpleasant environment.

Can we say awkward?

I don’t appreciate this man coming into my home as through he’s in a position to be evaluating my domestic skills.

I don’t care if the conclusions he shared appear to be favorable.

I think my husband is too much of a pushover and simply doesn’t want to feel awkward if the coworker comments on the lack of invitations to our home.

Seems like someone’s auditioning for the “Worst Houseguest Ever” award.

Reddit is definitely on her side…

This person says the decision is completely valid.

This person has a great suggestion for what to say next.

And this person really can’t believe what’s happening here.

The real mess isn’t in the house—it’s the one who keeps showing up to point it out!

This would make anyone unbelievably uncomfortable.
