Chances are that you saved up for the things you have in your home whether it was a new TV or a diamond ring.

So it’s hard to relax if you invite someone into your home who you can’t trust.

See why this woman is feeling bad about refusing to invite a friend over to her house.

AITA for declining to invite a woman who has called herself ‘a total klepto’ into my home?

I joined a Women’s Social Club 6 months ago because I’ve been struggling to make friends after relocating to a new-to-me city.

It took me a while to warm up to the group and to connect with people I actually had anything in common with.

I had to wade through a lot of botox parties and boozy brunches to find things I was interested in. But I did, and I started coming to group events fairly often.

Unfortunately, her hard work did NOT pay off…

I hang out most often with the women who like to read, do crafty things, bake, skywatch, etc.

Among these women is one, I’ll call her Andea, who has made several comments about how she’s a total klepto. I think that she makes these comments to seem “cool” to the other people in the group.

I reached out to some of the women I see regularly at these events and invited them over to my place to watch a TV show we’d been talking about and do crafty stuff.

They were excited and agreed to come.

Andrea wants to know why she wasn’t invited.

Unfortunately, Andrea found out (I assume someone asked if she was going) and reached out to me to ask if she was invited.

I considered this for a bit and then told her no, as I only had so much room at home.

She didn’t believe me and asked me for the real reason, saying “I thought we got along” which yes, is true.

Then her honesty led to drama.

I told her I’m not comfortable inviting a kleptomaniac into my home. That I’ve worked hard to have the things I have and it would be stupid for me to invite her knowing that she openly brags about it.

She said ‘Okay’ very quietly. She then said “You’re painting me out to be some horrible criminal when you don’t even know anything about me.”

I said that her being proud to call herself a klepto was all I needed to know.

She said that I was a high school mean girl and ableist. I am unsure what the foundation for that statement is.

She’s surprised at how many people are defending Andrea.

This unfortunately has spilled over to the group, which is frustrating.

But what has me the most surprised is that there are so many people defending her and telling me that I’m out of touch and take things too literally. Am I?

Maybe it would be helpful to ask her what she means when she calls herself a klepto.

Here is what folks are saying on Reddit.

Right? It’s a weird conversation starter…

Pretty much! What a weirdo.

Do you want an immature guest, anyway?

Exactly. Even if you just didn’t connect with her!

I bet she has huge, hidden pockets.

What a weird thing to do…
