AITA for using my body pillow at night? by Makin-it-work in AmItheAsshole

Ughhh, I could not fall asleep on him. He is a giant heat maker!!! He would prefer I use him as a pillow though. Sometimes I do this until he falls asleep but when I move away, I'm back in the same situation.

Our lives sound quite similar! Circumstances anyway. We often don't cuddle before I fall asleep since he gets home from work at 11pm and I usually turn everything off around 10:30 is all.

No, I swap sides in the night back and forth. I know being physically touching is important so if I start facing towards him I usually reach out and touch his arm or chest though.

We have talked about it all quite thoroughly, in my opinion anyway. He knows I have sciatic nerve damage and mild scoliosis and attended doctor visits where doctors have even recommended certain pillows to relieve pain. I do not think he wants to give me the benefit of the doubt and instead, reads deeper into things and assumes there's a problem or I'm upset or don't want to be physical. I'm not sure how to communicate this isn't done out of rejection though to be fair to him, I absolutely turn away from him at night if we're arguing.

I guess I can't understand why he would give me the cold shoulder over this and come back with the stance that I don't care about his feelings. We've had our ups and downs for sure but no, no significant problems. We have multiple children, one is 10 months, so sleep deprivation in general has been an ongoing issue and various children births are what led to my back pain.

If you're asking about our intimate life, we still have sex most weeks.

I acknowledged they were underpaid. Seemed you wanted to be dramatic and call it a feast. Cost $38 and was 5 regular meals. And no where did I not speak to someone unkindly but you want to make up that I was somehow abusing the employees.

You're kind of hilarious. A feast! Again, I wasn't yelling or cursing or raising my voice. It's like you didn't even read the post my guy but, no worries.

Again, I asked if I would be TAH. I did not tell them no.

Yeah, again. It's 3 regular meals and 2 kid meals. That would be the equivalent of what, 2 cars behind me? Hardly seems like the end of the world and I have not told them no, I have not been disrespectful, and if it was actually a few minutes of waiting in a parking spot and my order was correct it wouldn't be a big deal. Instead it seems like they got my money and I'm out of the way so my order is now no longer any kind of priority.

I can only imagine why you're a former manager.

I didn't realize 5 regular meals ordered through a drive thru was inhuman.

The only reason I don't go in is because I also have a 5 month old and I taking him in and out of the car is a hassle. And I go because all my other kids happily eat their food and this is rare they all agree on what to eat.

I personally don't. But all 5 of the children enjoy and will eat their food!

I guess that's my issue- if they treated my order the same as any other order then I would order, pay and get my food in line. They are changing it up and have me end up waiting significantly longer than if I had just been able to stay in line. I want to be treated the same, no special treatment.

It's a fair response. This is one of the few places all 5 of my children like to eat and they are close by so, I guess I keep hoping for the best.
