Woman enrages husband after turning his ‘gaming room’ into an office: ‘He needs to grow up’

A woman is wondering if she shouldn’t have turned her husband’s gaming room into an office.

She asked Reddit’s “Am I the A******? (AITA)” forum for advice. There are only two quiet rooms in her home, the gaming room and their bedroom. When she was forced to work from home, her husband refused to let her work from the bedroom. So she decided to take over his gaming room.

“My husband is out of a job, has been for months now and doesn’t have any money because he spent it all on gaming gears and animals,” she explained. “I’m the breadwinner right now and recently was given a work-from-home job. We have two kids that understandably make a lot of noise. So there’s not a quiet spot in the house except the bedroom, but my husband refused to let me work from there and said that it makes me look unprofessional and that he doesn’t want to be restricted from this space.

“I asked if he’d let me take his gaming room and turn it into an office temporarily, and he said no. I had a fight with him and ended up moving his gaming stuff into the bedroom. He found out and lost his temper. I told him he left me no choice, especially after I offered a compromise to share the room, but since he plays at random times, he said no.”

No matter how much she tried to reason with her husband, he refused and escalated things further.

“He kept yelling at me, calling me irresponsible and a dictator,” she wrote. “I firmly told him that this is part of the house, which is my space too. But he said, ‘No, no, no!!! Your space is the kitchen.’ This pushed me to lash back at him, and he left but said by the time he got back, everything needed to be put back.

“He came home drunk, so I didn’t wanna fight with him. He then kept ranting about wanting his room back, even after I tried to convince him to play in the bedroom all he wants. Yet he’s not having it and wants the ‘atmosphere’ his gaming room has. AITA for this, or is he being unreasonable?”

Redditors sided with the wife on this one.

“He needs to grow up. He isn’t entitled to a game room,” a user wrote.

“Can’t work in your room. Can’t work in his gaming room. I hope things improve for you both,” another said.

“He’s extremely immature. He should be job hunting, not playing games,” someone commented.
