<human>: **Background:** we've been good friends for four years. I don't have problems with her and we get along really well.

**Problem:** we're going to a get together with bunch of our friends. It's ending kind of late at night and since we both live far away, we've made arrangements to stay over at other people's places. I'm staying with my boyfriend who has a very small bachelor and just one bed. She was staying with another one of our friends, but our other friend just bailed on her and suggested she sleepover at my boyfriend's place with me.

The thing is... I know how private my boyfriend is and I know he doesn't like having people over (including his own friends). He and I have been going through a rough patch lately, so given that and knowing how important having his own private space is to him, I don't really feel comfortable asking him to let her stay over (never mind the fact that it would be really crowded and awkward as hell because she would have nowhere to sleep and would have to sleep on the floor of that tiny apartment).

How do I politely explain this to her and suggest she find somewhere else to sleep? I don't want her to feel like I don't care. If it was my apartment, I would totally invite her to sleepover and even let her share my bed so she didn't have to sleep on the floor. But it's not and I really don't think I should force my boyfriend to let her sleepover when I know how important his privacy is to him.

Any suggestions??
