Some things you only get to experience once. Like the first phase of your marriage with someone, for instance.

But what if that phase were to get interrupted?

Is it worth giving up to some degree, like this couple is being asked to do?

Let’s get all of the details.

AITA for choosing my marriage over helping a family friend

I have been married to my husband for 6 months now.

I personally feel that the first couple of years of marriage are very precious even though we have been living together for 4 years now.

This is the foundation of our relation as a married couple.

Completely understandable so far. Then in comes a friend in need.

So my husband has a friend who needs a house for the next 5 months.

Initially when he asked us I thought it was okay as he is a good man and been a real great friend to my husband.

But as it is becoming a reality I am feeling very anxious and started having regrets on this decision.

I am scared the honeymoon phase of the marriage will be without privacy as we live in a two bed tiny flat.

I want as much private time as possible with my husband.

Is three going to be too much of a crowd?

On the other hand as someone who was homeless for 15 days in the past and seeking help from friends to stay at their place I feel guilty to say no to him.

But again feel like 5 months is too long and my one year anniversary will be come around by then.

I really don’t know what to do….any suggestions are welcome.

Let’s see what the comments have to say:

On the other hand, what if your marriage is a whole vibe?

There’s a way to motivate the husband to motivate the friend to cut this visit short.

Speak now or forever hold your piece. For five months.

Best of luck!

This is a tricky situation for sure.
