    Font - Posted by u/notatypicaltaurus 19 hours ago A 3 3 S 4 AITA if I don't let my roommates dad sleep in my bed? Not the A-hole I (21f) live in a two bedroom, two bathroom apartment. My boyfriend (22m) shares my bedroom and bathroom with me. My roommate (22f), let's callI her Mary, has her own bathroom and bedroom. We share a kitchen/common room. For context, Mary andi split the rent 50/50. Our names are both on the lease as it is university housing. We are both university students. She is a se

    Font - Yesterday Mary texted me that her dad is flying out for graduation and she is looking for hotels but they're too expensive so he needs to stay in my bedroom. I was very confused and taken aback by this request because it seemed completely strange and inappropriate. I told her I (and my boyfriend) will be here and will be using the room (because we live here). She said that we need to leave so that she can have the room for her dad. I asked if she could use my air mattress in either her ro

    Font - She said she just started looking for hotels 3 weeks before graduation because she had been too busy to do it earlier. Not only do I need my room, which I pay for, but I'm not comfortable with a man I've never met sleeping in my bed and staying in my room with my personal belongings without me being there. AITA if I don't let her use my room for her dad? EDIT: My boyfriend, my roommate, and I all pay the university the same amount for our housing. EDIT 2: Apparently he can't sleep in her

Her lack of planning is not your emergency, and the idea of a stranger sleeping in YOUR bed should rightly disgust you. You need to put your foot down and make sure your landlord is aware of what Mary is asking in case she lets her dad in to take your bed when you aren't home. 17.1k Reply Share •.. notatypicaltaurus OP · 19 hr. ago This is something I am concerned about, beca

    Font - notatypicaltaurus OP · 18 hr. ago I can't, and even if I could it wouldn't change anything because we have ID cards that give us access and we are both RAS (resident assistants) so we have master key cards that can access any room on the floor. 3.3k Reply Share ...

    Font - Studoku · 19 hr. ago Asshole Enthusiast [5] NTA, it's your room and your roommate is insane. If he can't sleep on an air mattress for whatever reason, she sleeps on the mattress and he sleeps in her bed. This is not difficult. 6.5k Reply Share •.. SigSauerPower320 · 19 hr. ago NAVY Certified Proctologist [24] Agreed. I'd also argue that it's actually debatable whether or not roommate was out of line for not even asking if he could stay. I mean, if I share a place with someone and I'm plan

I'm not sure why your roommate believes she's entitled to be able to kick someone out of a room that they pay for to make room for her father, but this is a life lesson that she's gonna have to learn. Tell her straight up that you will not be letting her father stay in your room and that she's more than welcome to borrow your air mattress so they can bunk in her room together. She'll just have to get over it. 2.3k Reply Share •.. fl

    Font - immi_cookie · 19 hr. ago NTA - why can't she make her Dad stay in her room or the common area? Also, both your names are on the lease and expenses split 50-50. How can she ask you to leave for that period of time? 744 Reply Share •.. SigSauerPower320 · 19 hr. ago Certified Proctologist [24] NAVY The worst part is, roommate didn't even ask.... She told her "You have to leave". As in, OP didn't even get a say in the matter. Talk about a sense of entitlement! 431 Reply Share •..

    Font - Realistic-Airport775 · 19 hr. ago Partassipant [4] NTA Her lack of planning is not your problem to solve. She has a room and he can stay in that room. Tell that that her rent payment allows her the use of the her bedroom and bathroom and living room so she can pick one of those to use, it does not give her the right to give away what she doesn't pay for as that is theft. I imagine there is more going on here, like if he needs "babysitting" then she might not want him around people which i

    Font - PeggyHW · 19 hr. ago Pooperintendant [69] NTA! WTF? If her dad really needs a bed (say back issues?) then he can use her bed and she can take the couch or air mattress. Do not give way on this. And consider fitting a lock if you don't already have one. 314 Reply Share
