AITJ for telling my roommate I won’t adjust my sleep schedule because her boyfriend visits on weekends?
I (24F) live with my roommate Kayla (26F) in a two bedroom apartment. We’ve lived together for about 14 months and generally get along fine.
I work an early shift, I’m up at 5:30am on weekdays and usually on weekends too because my body just does what it does at this point.
Kayla works later hours and her boyfriend Tyler visits most weekends, usually arriving Friday night and leaving Sunday. I have nothing against Tyler, he seems like a decent person.
The issue started about six weeks ago when Kayla asked if I could try to be quieter in the mornings on weekends because Tyler is a light sleeper and my morning routine, which is just making coffee and getting ready, was waking him up. I said sure, I’d try to be more careful.
I started tiptoeing around my own kitchen at 6am, skipping the coffee grinder, not running the dishwasher. It felt a bit odd but I tried.
Then last weekend she came to me and said Tyler was still being woken up and asked if I could maybe push my wake up time to 8 or 8:30 on weekends.
I told her honestly that I wasn’t willing to do that. I explained that this is my home too and I have a routine that works for me and I don’t think it’s reasonable to change my sleep schedule permanantly so her boyfriend who doesn’t live here can sleep in.
She got pretty quiet and said she thought I was being selfish. I felt bad about it but I also feel like I already made concessions and there’s a limit. So, am I the jerk?
TL;DR: Roommate asked me to change my weekend wake up time for her visiting boyfriend. I said no after already adjusting my routine, she called me selfish.
