Just lock up your valuables. It's fine to trust them about the rest. They might open the fridge, make a sandwich but you can let that slide. Nothing more than that can happen.

God damn how shitty of a family do you have so you can't trust family for 5-6 hours in your place. If you have that little faith then say no. You're allowed to do that.

Wtf.

This does not sound normal to me. If you have that big concerns about this person, you should not let him stay in your place at all.

exactly. Either OP is unhealthily attached to his fridge or OP's guest is satan or something.

Yeah - this story was all routine unyil the "twisted unhygenic habits" came into play. You are clearly not comfortable having this person in your space, and you clearly have a valid reason for feeling that way. Your family, members and friends don't have any business pressuring you about this because it's not their refrigerator that's gonna get messed with… This person can wait at the airport, wait at Walmart… Go to the mall… Whatever… This is not your problem if you are not comfortable, then having this person in your space, causing you a lot of worry and stress, and this should not be happening.

Pay for a motel room for a day

That's what I was thinking. It sounds like it would be worth the money to book him a motel by the airport. Peace of mind!

I agree. There's more to this than "I don't know them very well". 😅

If you can't lock up the things he might contaminate, you will need to throw away anything suspect when you get back. Rather than stress and guess, decide whether you're willing to toss what you cannot sanitize. If not, (if doing that will cost more than an airbnb or motel room near the airport), make an excuse and change the plan. I'm sorry your family put you in this position.

You don't owe anyone your peace of mind about your own home.

you don't owe him any favors, 5-6 hours is short enough that he can go to the airport early and rest there. there's zero reason to let him into your home after you know he's done unusual/twisted things. he probably reached out because he knows you are an easy target. please cancel the visit, make up any excuse necessary.

Except he’d try to be nice and give you the left over pizza in a ziplock or something and stick it in the fridge.

I mean, this might be comparable to a hotel if you just add in your peace of mind.
