Would you let a Ukrainian refugee live in your home?

[OlderAndWiser]

I daed a women from the Ukraine intermittently and rather sporadically from 2007 to 2020. We lived about 60 miles apart when we started dating, then she moved and we were 240 miles apart. She is a good woman but a bit materialistic, presumably as a result of growing up in the former USSR, where she lived through constant shortages of consumer goods.

I don't have the space to but I would. I would rather them stay in another property that I own but do not live in. I would want to meet them first and speak to them, I work in the property industry so I get a good idea of people by asking certain questions because although we're helping them we still have to make sure it will work too.

I also read a lot of Ukrainians have left their hosts homes and are not getting along with them! It didn't say why.

I know a manager at another company who invited a family to his home, he has a wife and 3 kids so I believe its a mother and child. All good so far

Also that guy that left his wife for the Ukrainian refugee I think he was waiting for that. It won't last.

The reality is the UK has had a long history of people coming over and forming relationships with the natives. Some of these relationships will of course be with people already in relationships.

No I wouldn’t. I have a whole family to take care of. It’s impossible to know what type of person they are. I think that people today act a lot differently than they did 100 years ago.

A lot of the men who want to house refugees are creeps. Literally the only reason they do it is because they want to get laid with a hot young Ukrainian girl. In this case he obviously did, but I wonder how long that will last?

When I saw this question come up on the feed, I was ready to answer jokingly, "Only if she's hot." Then I clicked on the link and read the story. I guess truth is stranger than comedy.

No but I wouldn't let an American nor relative stay either. I'd pay for their hotel room in a bad part of town of course because it's cheaper. And they'd recognize that living standard better than the Ritz.

The results of this post make me a little sad. As somebody who has been homeless and had homeless people stay with me short term growing up although they were not complete strangers I'm very disappointed a night on the couch from a stranger can realy change things for you.

I do understand that if your a woman you may not want a larger strange man staying with you but considering most of them are at war it would be women and children.

[Aurora1010]

No. There are plenty of homeless people in my own country and if I hadn't thought to take one into my house since I don't know them then why would I take in a Ukrainian refugee

[Anonymous]

No, I live by myself, and I wouldn't be comfortable having strangers in my home.
Also, I like living alone, it's my solitude and where I can have peace in my mind.

You got to watch who you let stay in your household no matter who they are and that includes a Ukraine refugee

[grega239]

Why? I've seen posts on fb of ukranians looking for apartments... IN THE FUCKING CAPITAL CITY.

If they can afford that, they should be giving me a room because i can't get a flat unless i want to starve

[OldWorldOrder]

I would let a Russian from Donbass live in my house, absolutely. No ukrops. They made their bed, now they must burn in it. :)

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I would give them food, clothes, but no I wouldn't let a complete stranger live with me...

[Soteris]

If they share the rent, I dont see why not. I do have a spare bedroom.

[Sevenpointfive]

now that's true love! bwahaha what a douchebag and naive woman

[jshm2]

To be honest, it's probably bunkem and not as simple as she's making it out.

[snackthatsmilesback]

No offense but we're about to have infants so I don't want any strangers living here for at least 2 years.

[Agagagagaga]

Fuck no. Let Europeans care for them if they are so goddamn selfless.

[Guardian45]

Yes, I would if I had the space and money and time.

[douride2]

I may help them out but no stranger is living in my house.

[Twalli]

What happened on this situation wouldn't happen with me, because she'd be in another floor of the house most of the time.

[Pudsmucker]

I would say yes they need loving and care after what they've gone through.

[Juxtapose]

No, get your own place. I pay for mine and don't like letting strangers stay over.

[Better_off_here]

i would not i mean i feel bad for them and all but i am not interested in any more people in my home :)
