Happy New Year, Reddit. I’m trying to shed some light/ get an opinion from the outside about a tricky situation I’m in. On mobile so sorry if the formatting is out of whack. TL;DR at the bottom.

My girlfriend (F24) and I broke up about 3 weeks ago. She has a really cool 3 year old daughter (not mine, just to clarify). Unfortunately the relationship was one sided and toxic so we ended it. To make matters worse, she’s in the process of moving out and taking time. Which can be annoying but she should be gone by this week so I can have a clutter free house and go on about my life.

To put some perspective on my situation, my ex does not have a car, a license, anything of the sort. So she relies on her friends and family to pick her up, take her daughter to daycare, get groceries, etc. when I’m not around because of new work hours/since we broke up.

She asked me last night if I had plans for New Years, I do. And I asked if she did. She told me she’s probably going to have a few friends over and that one guy is definitely coming. This is where the problem begins. I’m not trying to be the biggest asshole on earth, but I don’t know any of these people, and I really don’t want them at my house since I won’t be home. She was never on the lease, and hasn’t paid any of the bills. She thinks I’m being spiteful. But I legitimately just don’t want people I don’t know in my house all night drinking. She says I’m being cruel because she has a daughter and can’t go out, but I feel otherwise. Am I justified?

TL;DR: Ex and I broke up. She’s in the process of moving out. Never on lease/paid bills. Is mad because I won’t let strangers party at my house while I’m gone.
