22-year-old living at home refuses to share room with father's girlfriend's 10-year-old daughter despite girlfriend insisting: "We even have a spare room"

Welcome back people of the internet. I never had to share a room in my life, except one year during college. That one year was enough for me, sharing a room breaches on every kind of comfort. It's nearly inhumane to make two people breathe each other's air in the most vulnerable and safe space for them.

A bedroom is a sanctuary, it's where you can be yourself, laugh, cry, scream, talk on the phone, dance and sing in the mirror. Someone else witnessing those things, or just being around them at all can be jarring. At least I only had to do it for one year, and would never do it again. Luckily at the time I was very busy, and also got along well with my roommates. You pretty much have to. If you don't, things won't go so well for you down the line.

In the story below, the protagonist is a young woman who lives with her father. He started dating someone who has children, and they're all coming to move in. Despite there being an extra room, the girlfriend insists that her 10 year old share a room with the protagonist. She puts her foot down.

AITA for not agreeing to share my room with my dad's girlfriend's daughter?

I wonder what will happen in the end. She has every right to not want to share a room with a fourth grader who she barely knows. But on top of the ridiculous expectation that they'd share a room, she even says there are other options that the girlfriend just doesn't want to do.
