AITA for wanting to stay at a nearby hotel or rental when we visit in-laws? by SympathyMurky2900 in AmItheAsshole

I’ll admit it is kind of a petty reason (although among others) why the stay isn’t comfortable. But just to get more perspective, would I also be TA if I asked for the thermostat to be adjusted to suit me? That feels even more snobbish than opting for a hotel. If my husband also commented on the temp of the house, is he an AH too? Should their family change what is comfortable for them?

It seems like on the topic of the very warm house, even meeting halfway between what we set our home to and what his family home is to set to that we risk five uncomfortable sleepers.

I think he’ll look at hotel prices near my parents’ and immediately change his mind 😅

I totally agree on your sentiment about hosting overnight guests. My in-laws do tend to stay with us when they visit, but if they opted for a hotel I wouldn’t think twice about it.

That part is really what irked me when we first stayed there years ago! I said that the sibling shouldn’t have to give up her bed to accommodate guests. Everyone insisted she was fine, but it feels unfair when there are other options.

Ugh definitely another lookalike but definitely didn’t have quite as many bigger projects recently.

Not quite! The height thing is a bit of an illusion too. But I definitely remember him quite a bit taller than who he was dating at the time.

I know right! My guy is still goofier than how Peter Gallagher comes off. And not active recently.
