Am I a prude?

Is this a wind up?

So what they were having sex. Lucky things!

Sigh (for OP)

I think this is maybe a compliment to your excellent hosting- they are feeling relaxed, cosy and comfortable in your home (inspite of the banging door).

I would take it as such.

Never mind, at least the schools go back soon (they've been back for a few weeks here!)

This surely is a wind-up.
Entering the bedroom you have assigned to your in-laws during the night, because a door was rattling, then professing shock horror because they were having sex.
Really??
Your description of your own inhibitions makes you sound like a bored teenager thinking of the worst thing old people can do. I remember a schoolfriend when we were sixteen being deeply offended because her parents' friends, then about fifty, were holding hands in the back of the car

I don't think you are a prude, quite the reverse.
You are revelling in this, if of course, it is true.

Spare room next time, you shouldn't be surprised your in laws are having sex!
However I am with chocolatepeanuts ,
- not in my bed!

😂

Good grief, imagine how they would feel if they knew you'd sneaked in and heard them.

Definitely a wind up! 😂

You can't be serious? Married couple, having sex!
I know the fact that it's in your bed which has upset you, but surely you will change the sheets etc. anyway.

I cannot understand why people let guests sleep in the main bedroom so their bed! I would never do that! if I didn't have a spare bedroom they would stay in a b&b!. I find it odd!

I can only assume those siding against the OP and using the derogatory term 'Prude' are a bunch of Swingers?

Well, well - fancy that carry on behind the net curtains!

Move the comfortable bed into the guest room and get a new comfortable one for the main room.

A comfortable guest room and an uncontaminated bed for the OP.

Problem solved😁

(Never understand why people hang on to uncomfortable furniture 🤔)

At night you entered the suite in-laws were occupying, that makes for an awkward situation - not a prudish situation. Mountain molehill.

Say nothing, no boundary pushed.

Just be happy for them that they are still having sex. They must feel totally relaxed & at ease in your home.
Like someone said, they are in their Hols.
Just strip the bed & move on ☺️

God this is hilarious you should use it as an excuse to get someone out to put some locks on the bedroom doors and to fix the en suite door

Classic example of a liar
Toooooo much detail/ information.
Plus the written perfect grammar and paragraphs.
If the BOTS want to be believed they need to reprogram that error in the text.

Wow….!

I have only just been able to come back to this as we have been out all day

…pressed send too soon, I’ll start again.

I am very surprised at some of the unkind responses here, but I will try to address some of the comments made..

No, I’m not a troll / bot!

There was a comment made about my so-called perfect grammar / spelling - I’ve completed the first year of an English language degree this year as a mature student.. I had no idea I’d be ripped apart to this extent..!

I have no issue at all with older people having a sex life. It’s the fact it happened in our bed that has creeped me out.

Someone asked why we had hung on to an uncomfortable bed .. we’ve had lots of expenses this year completing jobs on the house so it hasn’t been a huge priority to replace a bed that is not used very regularly.

There were a couple of replies regarding whether the schools were still on holiday? I’m not sure how this is relevant to anything.

And no , I’m absolutely not getting any kind of kick whatsoever out of this situation. What a horrible suggestion .

Thank you for coming back.
I still think it's just a measure of how welcome you have made them feel.

Try not to be "creeped out".

They're not doing anything wrong but I do understand somewhat. I don't like the idea of anyone having sex in my bed either. You should have just let them sleep in the guest room. I'm pretty protective of my bed space.

In hindsight, yes I suppose I should have given them the spare room. I just thought they would be more comfortable in the main bedroom, especially with there being the ensuite and a nice shower etc. I wanted to be hospitable especially after the long drive to get here, and they always make us welcome whenever we stay with them.

No, it’s not.

I’m not revelling in anything whatsoever, that is a vile suggestion.

It could be worse, they might have been having their session in the en suite causing the door to rattle 😱

Seriously, please don’t embarrass yourself and your in laws by mentioning it. If it bothers you give them the spare room next time.

I definitely won’t be mentioning anything to them!

I'm sorry some people have been so rude Mrsbee
