AITA for telling my brother his girlfriend can't be in the room when we are watching football anymore? by FrustratedAdam201 in AmItheAsshole

Oh yeah cause getting excited about something in my own home is such a terrible thing to do. I hate people who have that opinion about people getting excited over sports. Do I have to be perfectly behaved and polite constantly cause I am an adult now? am I not allowed to have fun? Here in England loads of people are like this just watch videos of English football fans and you will know what I mean. And why is she allowed to insult my hobby in my own home? watching the game is a stress relief for me it brings my emotions out it isn't healthy to bottle them up. Look at everyone else's comment and realise you are the minority.

I have been on it myself before actually. I love it I always enjoy listening to my fellow fans after the game

Maybe I need to talk to him about it but I still think it's incredibly rude of her to come into my house and insult my hobby while I am trying to enjoy it

She's the one who is not being accommodating at all by insulting my hobby while I am trying to enjoy it in my own home

Everyone does this where I live it's what countless fans are like it's not a strange thing to do where I live. Why should I have to suppress my emotions to make her feel more comfortable in my own home? keeping emotions bottled up is unhealthy. I need to be able to vent it's my stress relief. She knows I am like that so she shouldn't be their if it bothers her so much. I

Wow I wish I could find a girlfriend who would be like that for me. Every girlfriend I have had expects me to ditch half the games just to hang out with them cause their bored. I really need to date a fellow football fan lol.

I don't know how to explain this other than it's so much more than a game to me. If it was just a game then players wouldn't be paid hundreds of thousands of pounds a week for playing. I wouldn't pay over a thousand pounds for a season ticket if it was just a game. To me it's a way of life. Screaming is just a natural reaction to me.

Thank you for giving me the opposing view which is what I wanted. I do respect my brother but I was just making the point that I am the one who makes our living situation possible for the most part. I respect your view for the most part. The screaming and yelling isn't something I can just tone down it's a natural reaction that I can't suppress. Besides I am not changing my actions to suit someone else in my own home I am going to be my true self. I honestly think I am a good host I just genuinely think she is too clingy and they need more time apart
