Big city man refuses to be his small-town cousin’s personal tour guide and Airbnb host when she shows up uninvited and demands another free stay at his place, then sends him Uber and hotel receipts expecting him to pay: ‘I never met this woman before’

The way distant relatives you’ve never met expect you to become their personal concierge, chauffeur, and Airbnb host simply because you share a last name and happen to live near the city is truly one of those amazing things about family. Take the case of this unsuspecting city dweller who graciously picked up a mom’s cousin from the train, toured her around, and even footed the bill for her unexpected overnight stay. Hospitality: check. Good deed done. Cue the sequel.

A second VIP visit, where the same relative decides that busyness is no excuse and self-entitlement gets you an automatic president’s suite treatment. No invitation, no heads-up, just a bold demand for house keys and the expectation that your home doubles as a hotel room. When denied, she pivots from thank you to you owe me, complete with Uber and hotel receipts for reimbursement, and an unapologetic assertion that family means automatic caretaking, whether you want it or not.
