27. I'm friends with her sister and she hates him

She absolutely refuses to have him in her house. She said if my best friend wants to being him down here, she can leave him in a parking lot for the weekend and go see him there.

Whenever my best friend comes down to visit, she stays with her sister and I go over there to see them but only when I'm invited, usually at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Sometimes she comes down and we don't get together at all because she has family obligations, which I completely understand.

Unfortunately my best friend won't listen to reason about that loser. A couple of Christmases ago, we tried to get through to her but she wasn't having it. She just kept saying "oh well."
