get you feet off my furniture!  |
|
I had a friend stop by and visit yesterday and she left her shoes on..which I understand as she has to wear orthotics in them because of bad feet.....well less then two weeks ago I got a new coffee table and end table. We were sitting in the living room visiting and she kept putting her feet up on my new table!! I wouldn't put my feet on anyone's table but to do it with her shoes on really got on my nerves! If it had been one of the kids I would have probably said something....but being I don't get to see this gal alot I just cringed and tried not to seem upset. I realize it's just a coffee table but I have a pottery basket on it that my daughter got me in Italy, and I didn't want that pushed off either. Would you have said something? Or would you do like I did and just grin and bear it?

1. spalladino (9043) | 2 years ago | I wouldn't have said anything either and prayed for my husband to walk in. He'd tell the Pope to get his feet off the coffee table.

3. kezabelle (2671) | 2 years ago | I woud have said something, I wouldnt treat other peoples furniture like that and I sure as hell wont let them treat mine like it. Its rude it really is, I insist on shoes off in my house aswell I dont wear mine round the house and friends and family dont need to either they can go tread all their muck into their own carpet if that keeps them happy but they arent doing it here.

| 4. melissacody (73) | 2 years ago | I definatley would have said something to her. I can understand that maybe will bad feet she may need to keep them elevated but to put them up on someones furniture is a bit rude, regardless if they are your friend or not.
If this happens again, maybe kindly suggest that you have a stool she can use if she needs to put her feet up. Saying it this way wont leave her on the defensive.
Personally tho lol if it were me i would have said, "take ur shoes off at the door and the feet belong on the floor"

5. miesse (355) | 2 years ago | My mother is really bad for putting her shoed feet on my couch. Not quite the same but I understand. I do tell her to get her feet of my chouch. If it was a friend that I didn't see often I don't know if I would say anything or not but I am very open with my mom.

jillhill (11787) | 2 years ago | If it had been family I would have done the same....but really if she does it again I will say something!

jillhill (11787) | 2 years ago | I don't put my feet on it either! Don't people even think about other peoples things? It did make me a bit uncomfortable watching her do it....but then again she doesn't even bother to do anything with her own home so I suppose she didn't even think about it!

7. 34momma (4843) | 2 years ago | you are better then me because i would have told her to take her feet down. wow that is so not cool to assume that it's ok to do what you do at home in someone else's house. you don't have to grin and bear it and you don't have to be mean either. you can nicely let her know that you prefer if she didn't put her feet on your table!

jillhill (11787) | 2 years ago | I am such a woosy when it comes to stuff like this!

34momma (4843) | 2 years ago | you shouldn't be. if you don't stand for something then you will fall for anything. and you don't have to be mean or nasty just say oh girl please don't put your feet on my table i just got it

8. babykeka80 (1169) | 2 years ago | I probably wouldnt have said anything but always would have in the back of my mind how rude it is. I can't even imagine going to someone's house and putting my feet on their furniture. I sometimes don't even like to wear my shoes into other peoples houses if their carpet looks like it has just been cleaned or something. That is just unheard of being that an adult did it.

jillhill (11787) | 2 years ago | Yes....you are right. I don't wear my shoes in anyone else's house and certainly wouldn't put my feet up on a coffee table! THanks for posting!

9. RLFinNash (5721) | 2 years ago | hello jillhill
oh i do not blame you one bit for wanting your friend to get her feet off of your furniture. and i understand about the pottery basket as well. so did she need to prop her feet up since you had mentioned that she has bad feet? too bad you didn't have a foot stool or something like that that she could have propped her feet upon. i have a foot stool if you want to call it that in my living room. i am not really sure what the proper name for foot stool's are. do you know what they are called? but anyways, i guess that i might have had to say something to my friend in a nice way about it thou to please be careful not to knock over my pottery basket. and if she is a true friend, then she would understand as well that you treasure the things that you have sitting around in your house.
have a beautiful afternoon.

jillhill (11787) | 2 years ago | I should have gently said something....but oh well....I do have a little footstool but I think it's more a habit then her actually needing her feet up!

10. ellie333 (6793) | 2 years ago | You are just so nice there is no way I would not have said something regardless of whether it was a new table or not it was very rude and my house my rules and to lead by example as I would have told the kids off I would have had to say (very politely of course LOL) to her about it. I realise that you hadn't seen her for a while but I would have said something along the lines of I have just recently decorated and these tables are new too, do you like them, oh and would you do me a favour and keep your feet off them please. I tell the kids so it wouldn't look too good if they saw you do it eh! and smiled through a grimace LOL. Ellie:D

jillhill (11787) | 2 years ago | I just redid the dining room and you can't help but notice which she did....the living room is connected by an archway to the dining room so I freshened it up with new tables....and she commented on them! That's what I don't understand. She said how nice it looked them put her sneakers up on my brand new coffee table! LOL...I will next time she comes over though....I don't want to stew over it and maybe if I just remind her she will understand.
