    I (26M) recently went on a trip with a group of friends. We booked a nice hotel, and everyone was happy-until my friend Jenna (27F) decided that her room had "bad energy." She said the moment she walked in, she felt off, like something was wrong.

    At first, I thought maybe it smelled weird or had a bad view, but no-she said it was the "vibe." She even Googled the hotel to check if anything bad had happened there.

    Then she asked if we could swap rooms because mine "felt lighter." I said no because I had already unpacked, and honestly, I didn't want to deal with moving just because of her imaginary haunted-room theory. She got frustrated and said, "It's just a room! If it doesn't bother you, why not just switch?"

    I told her if it was that bad, she could ask the hotel for another room. She actually did, but they were fully booked. So now she's been cold toward me the whole trip, and a couple of our friends think I was being stubborn over "something that wouldn't have hurt me."

    The resident psychologist has entered the chat.

    NTA. Making people do pointless. or unreasonable things is a self-centred attempt at exerting control. This behaviour is also very common among unskilled managers.

    By refusing her request, you rightly showed her that you were not going to be controlled by her.

    On the other hand: if you had agreed to switch rooms, then you could expect to receive further unreasonable requests/demands - and refusing those would lead to an even bigger b fit because you would had already set the expectation that you can be controlled.

    Why specifically your room. Let the others trade with her. And when you get home write her out your life because now you'll be the "bad vibe" Nta geez people s k these days.

    NTA. Let me get this straight.... she thinks her room has negative energy. Why does she think it is OK for her to force YOU to sleep in a 'negative energy' environment?!? That is cruel. I mean, if she truly believes the crop she is spouting, it makes her seem dastardly to inflict such a space on a friend.

    She got mad because she didn't get her unreasonable way. She is selfish and entitled.
  • 16
    Why didn't one of the other people in your group offer to change rooms with her?
  • 17
    Did she ask the hotel for a new room due to the "vibes" or did she say another reason for wanting a different room? Curious about their reaction to that weird request lol. NTA.

    Nah, this was a tactic... she knew, even if it was only $50 your room was more valuable and she was trying to stinge a free upgrade. or the view was better. whatever it was, full dog act move from her

    People are the worst >:(

    NTA. My best vacations have always been solo. When you take a trip with anyone else, it is no longer just your vacation, and you often deal with crop like this.

    Sometimes, this is all that needs to be said.

    Your friend is a loon.
