Give them back?
e_rod382@sbcglobal.net asked:
How do I ask my husbands best friend for my house keys back politely? He comes and goes as he pleases. I have been close to calling the cops on him thinking its a thief. I asked him to call before he comes and he does. The problem is I go to bed at 8 p.m. and he calls at 11p.m.!!!!!! Im changing the automatic garage keypad code but he has keys to the door. The problem is that I can’t park my truck in the garage cuz he has his construction tools all over my garage. My husband doesn’t know what to do or say.
He has the keys because he was working on one of my bedrooms (putting texture and borders.) He is suppose to do the whole house but it doesnt seem like he has plans on doing anything for a while.

Why are you concerned with politeness? He certainly isn’t. Tell him you’d like your keys back.
Did he live with your husband before you got married
is that why he has the keys?
If not then you or your husband must have given them to him
just ask to get the keys back…. it is your house he can’t come
and go as he pleases.
He’s your husbands best friend,so it is up to him to do it.
He needs to tell him not to come over after 7 p.m., and that he needs the key back since you both do not want anyone coming over unannounced.
why does he have them in the first place? Ask your husband to ask him for them back, it is his friend. If that doesnt work, ask him yourself, dont worry about being rude, because he already is.
If all else fails, change your locks.
This is a weird situation…. why does he have the keys??? Why is he leaving all of HIS stuff in YOUR garage??? I’m sure someone allowed him to….. if it was your husband, then it’s HIM who must fix the problem he created. He doesn’t know what to do or say?????????? How old is he, 15????? I guess it’s just as easy as “hey buddy, my wife has been awaken a couple of times and she no longer wants you to come by at such a late time, so can you please give us the keys back and come by before X time so she can open the door for you? Also, we need the space in the garage so we’d appreciate if you picked your stuff and took it to YOUR place”…………………….. what’s sooooooo hard about that?? It’s YOUR house, dammit! If you can’t be in control of who comes in and who uses your space, I think it’s YOU guys who have a problem, not your hubby’s friend. I wouldn’t have a problem saying GIVE ME MY KEYS, JERK……. it’s MY house after all and I decide who can come in and who can’t. If your hubby is afraid to say this, he has to grow a pair, or YOU have to take care of this but SOON!
Maybe you should change the locks.
Also, police will come, even if it just makes you fell uncomfortable.
