And I leave the door open for parties in case someone needs the restroom (we only have 2). But it's not like people ever want to hang out in there. I'd feel weird if someone jumped in my bed though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-915070 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 10:08:42 +0000 Modern Daisy 915070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do, but I can tell people always want to get out of there as soon as possible and move on to the next room. We keep it neat and it's decorated so I don't know why, I think people just get skeeved out that it's our private area. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-915069 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 10:08:25 +0000 Dandelion 915069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lisamarieloves: Yeah...I just wanna shout, "Get off my bed!" Why doesn't she think it's weird?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-915063 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 10:07:07 +0000 ShootingStar 915063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really have a problem with people going in the room, assuming it's clean. There's nothing super personal about it, it's just a room with some dressers and a bed. And it's not like we haven't um *had fun* in most of the rooms in the house anyways, haha.</p> <p>And actually, in a couple weeks I have a whole bunch of friends coming to stay at our house for my baby shower. Due to space constraints 3 girls will be staying in the upstairs loft that's only accessible through our bedroom (it's like a giant finished basement but at the top of our townhouse). There's stairs that separate it, but no door. So that's a little weird, since we'll be sleeping in there, but oh well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-915050 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 10:00:37 +0000 deactivated_account 915050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: I would die!!! Thats crazy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-915046 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:59:57 +0000 deactivated_account 915046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would give a tour of the room, but would never visit with anyone in there. I don't even sit on my bed with street clothes on. I don't know why anyone would want to sit in there with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-915030 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:54:09 +0000 MsLipGloss 915030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't mind giving a quick tour through our bedroom and bathroom . . . the bedroom is so big that you can't see it all from the door (so you have to walk in it to see all of it), and, since they are already *in* our bedroom, they might as well see the bathroom, too, which is pretty cool. :)</p> <p>@mrs. wagon: Say whaaaaaa?! Your friend confuzzles me! I mean, what did you do after she did that? *jinkies* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914901 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:23:58 +0000 swurlygurl 914901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Ah, that's weird... I have a thing with beds though. I don't like sleeping in other people's beds unless it's specifically a guest bed. My cousin always tried to get me to sleep in her step-son's bed when he wasn't there and I was visiting... I just couldn't </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914894 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:22:36 +0000 swurlygurl 914894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I'm showing my house to someone for the first time I do, otherwise I feel like it's kind of an off-limit space... I don't know why I feel like that, but it just seems private.</p> <p>My SIL always goes in there when she's upstairs though. It's kinda odd... especially since there's all sorts of stuff lying out I would rather my SIL not see... haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914855 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:14:10 +0000 Dandelion 914855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't mind showing to people, but I would encourage people to get out when they're trying to hang out in there. And by people, I mean my MIL. It's just weird when she goes in and lays on our bed. It has a memory foam top, so I know its cause it's so comfy, but it's really awkward. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914853 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:13:58 +0000 cascademom 914853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: OMG!! I would have serious issues with that friend after that. I respect people's space especially the bedroom. I'm appalled by people who don't respect other's private spaces like the master bedroom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914834 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:10:01 +0000 MrsTiz 914834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everyone who comes over and gets a tour can see it, but no one is allowed to hang out in there and I can't stand when I go in there for something and someone follows me. It's usually a mess.</p> <p>My FIL is so bad for that, i'll need to step in there to put something up or let the dog out and he comes right on in and I can't stand it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914831 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:09:16 +0000 Adira 914831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we first moved and were showing the house around, we showed people our master bedroom. But now I keep the door closed and people aren't allowed in. It's a mess and I don't want people in there ever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914808 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:02:27 +0000 girlinred 914808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a private person, so I don't love other people being in my space, but I do show the master bedroom to close friends and family the first time they are at our new house. After the first (brief) time in there, I don't see a reason to see it again unless there is specifically something in there that I want them to see, such as new paint or something. </p> <p>If family/friends come over my husband doesn't care if they see the house a mess or not, but I always clean before people come over. If I keep people out of the master bedroom/bath, that's just one less area for me to clean! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914786 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 08:53:44 +0000 avivoca 914786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I find it a bit awkward. It's rarely clean, I don't usually make the bed, and we don't have a ton of clothes storage, so there are small piles on the floor while I try to figure out what we can fit in there. Also, my mother refused to use our hall bathroom until she realized how awkward and small our powder room in the master is (it's 4'x5'). Now she grumbles about it, but uses the bigger hall bath. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914783 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 08:52:01 +0000 LuLu Mom 914783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, it doesn't bother me at all. I've even shared my bed with my best friend when she stayed with me when DH was out of town for work. I knew this was happening so the sheets were changed of course! </p> <p>We left people use our master bath all the time when we have company (we only have 2 bathrooms.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914772 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 08:46:44 +0000 mrs. wagon 914772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha... once a friend came over (she was unmarried at the time, I was married) and dove into our bed and pulled the covers over herself. I still shudder thinking about that..!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914411 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 00:18:29 +0000 Smurfette 914411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! It would be weird to give a tour of the house without showing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914406 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 00:15:32 +0000 fussygal 914406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't mind if people go in and check it out, but it does feel kinda odd. I always clean it up if we're having new company just in case someone wants a tour. Also, our bathroom has two doors, one of which is connected to our bedroom and I am paranoid about people opening it and seeing my messy bedroom! :P</p> <p>I don't always feel comfortable going in other people's either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914351 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:50:26 +0000 yoursilverlining 914351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't care if anyone goes into our bedroom, but my closet is off-limits! It's just tooooooooo messy; I don't even like my husband going in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914342 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:37:29 +0000 Sapphiresun 914342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would clean it up if I was having company that I knew had never been over and would want a tour or our place, but typically nobody goes in there. My MIL went in there once to use our ensuite without asking because our main bathroom was in use and I thought that was a little odd, especially since it tends to be last priority to get clean when guests come over, and typically has my crap everywhere, not to mention the shower rod is where we hang our laundry to dry (teeny apartment)<br /> But, apparently they're taking over our bedroom next time they come to stay for the weekend, so I guess I'll have to get over it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914339 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:32:51 +0000 doodlepoodle 914339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's always a mess but if you know me well enough to be in there, you can't judge me! I usually say something super awkward like 'sooooo...this is where the magic happens' then they vomit and don't come back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914307 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:13:02 +0000 Pepper 914307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always have friends over in our room. Especially if DH is watching something on TV in our living room. When we have parties people always end up hanging out in our room. I clearly don't look at our bedroom as an off limits place, but I can understand why other people feel that way. </p> <p>ETA: this was all pre baby. Our room right now is a HOT mess. I would never let anyone in there when its a mess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914288 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:06:10 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 914288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I let people in and I always keep it really clean, scented candle lit...all that. I spend a lot of time in there.<br /> My husband HATES anyone in there and he always is so irritated when he finds out me and my friends were in there haha...Oh well. Girls will be girls... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914274 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 22:02:36 +0000 Mrs. Twine 914274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I might be weird. I mean, if someone wants to see it I don't really care. I don't know why they'd want to look. I mean, I am seriously no decorator and it is just a room with a bed in it, but whatever floats their boat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914259 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 21:55:27 +0000 jmarionsmith 914259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no, i don't feel comfortable letting other people in our bedroom. the only exception was when lo was born.</p> <p>i also don't feel comfortable going into other people's master bedroom's. it just seems so personal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914252 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 21:52:32 +0000 PurplePumps 914252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, I don't have a problem with people going into the master bedroom. It's not like we leave toys and underwear all over. I'm actually quite happy to show it off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914242 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 21:47:54 +0000 Anagram 914242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't find it strange to have friends come in my bedroom. Usually at parties in my group, the bedroom is where guests can put their coats and purses (on the bed). I definitely wouldn't care if family came into my bedroom. It's just not part of our family's culture to feel strange about it, I guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-people-in-your-master-bedroom#post-914225 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 21:43:20 +0000 Reese 914225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I normally do the stand in the doorway but open the door so they can get a glance in... </p> <p>I find it strange too. </p>
