Sil in sem asked to come for shabb (fam member is in town and she’s eating with them shabb day). She doesn’t love seminary and does enjoy her alone time in our house. Friend called after and asked if her chosson can stay in our guest room. Should I move my kids to sleep in one room so sil can get her own room? Should I put sil with one of my kids? Or tell my friend no sil already asked for room? WWYD

ETA Guest room is on the main floor. Rest of bedrooms are upstairs

Would she be comfortable with a single male sleeping in the same apartment? I don’t know her comfort level, but many people wouldn’t be comfortable.

You can’t have your sil and your friend’s chosson over to sleep on the same Shabbos.

Is the guest room on a separate floor? If not, I would not have an unrelated single girl and single boy (even though he is a chosson...) staying in my house at the same time. I would tell your friend that you are really sorry, but room is already booked.

Agree I wouldn't have them both together. Tell your friend it's already taken.

Even on different floor. Completely inappropriate. Why can't you just say no?

It could be the chosson and your friend the kallah would also not be thrilled with the situation if they knew sil was coming.

I’m not understand why completely inappropriate. It’s just for sleeping. They might not even cross paths

I would not have non- relatives young guy sleep over even if I would have single daughters 16 and up at home in such arrangement, unless you have a separate guest suite with separate entrance and bathroom. You can ask you sister if she would want to come on a different Shabbos or tell your friend that guest room is taken.

I would ask sil first since she was invited first. If sil has no problem giving up the guest room and sleeping upstairs, I would tell neighbor that you will have your sil for shabbos. She can decide if she's still interested in having the chosson sleep in your guest room.

I don't understand why not If the rooms are on a separate floor. I say it's ok if your kids and sis in law don't mind

OP are you a people pleaser? Because someone is going to end up upset if you give in and say yes to both. You need to say no and that will ultimately make everyone happier.
