A lack of quality sleep can bring out the worst in anyone, especially while traveling.

This husband knew his wife was particular about her sleep.

However, when he refuses to comply with her request for him to room with her mother, longstanding tensions boil over.

Read on for the full story!

AITA for refusing to share room with my MIL during family trip while my wife sleep with her sister?

I recently went on a family trip with my wife, her mother, sister and our 2 year old son.

For context, my wife never shares a bed with me since we have our son and she claims my snoring is interrupting her sleep.

Since she is already very tired from taking care of baby, I have no choice but comply.

Trouble continued when the couple went on a trip with their family.

So during our family vacation, my wife asked me to share a room with my MIL because she wants uninterrupted sleep as she will be driving for few hours for the next day.

He didn’t feel this was a reasonable request.

I felt extremely uncomfortable with the request and refused to do so no matter what.

Needless to say it caused a big fight.

I even told off my wife and her sister.

He decided to chose his own fate and sleep elsewhere.

For the rest of the holiday, I have been sleeping on the couch bed in the living room.

AITA?

This situation seems far from resolved.
