Imagine coming home from work late at night and expecting your spouse to unlock the door for you since you didn’t bring a house key with you. What would you do if your spouse didn’t answer the door or their phone?

In this story, one woman finds herself in this situation, and she’s pretty upset about it. However, her husband isn’t sure if it’s really his fault or not.

Let’s read the whole story.

AITA for falling asleep and my wife not being able to enter our house?

My wife works shifts till late at night. Usually she comes home between 11:30 pm and 12:00 pm.

She didn’t bring a house key with her, which I already expected.

I send her chat message about it to make sure, but before she even answered I already fell asleep together with our 1 year old.

He was really tired.

This particular day I was extremely exhausted.

I had only slept 6 hours per night or less for the 3 nights before.

Apparently, she came home but I didn’t wake up from the door bell (isn’t very loud anyway) and my phone was on silent mode.

He points out that there was still a way for her to get in the house.

Though, she couldn’t enter via the front door, the back door was unlocked. So if she wanted she could have climbed the fence and enter the house via our backyard.

But instead she went back to her work (hotel) to sleep there and blames me severely.

So my question is: AITA based on this situation?

Hopping a fence to get in your own home isn’t ideal. Why didn’t she bring a key with her to work?

I’d be upset if I were in his wife’s situation, but I always bring a key with me, so I wouldn’t be in that situation.

Let’s see what Reddit thinks about this story.

This person thinks he really messed up, but there’s also an easy solution.

Another person thinks they’re both to blame.

When you put it that way, they both really look bad.

Yeah, I wouldn’t climb the fence either.

Bringing a house key to work is not that hard!
