I(33F) used to live with my sister(33F) from the time I was 18-20. We had a good setup for us both and her daughter. About a year or so into us living together, my sister started dating a guy who later became the father of her son. He would stay over some nights until he ultimately moved in. I didn’t care that he moved in because the space we lived in had plenty of room. Back then and now, I, like a good chunk of people, wear the basic T-shirts and boxers as my PJs. One day, I came out of my room into the kitchen in those pj’s, and he asked me not to wear the boxers around the house anymore. I told him, “I pay rent here, and I am not walking around naked, I don’t see a problem.” His response.“You’re wearing underware as clothing. It makes me uncomfortable.” Because of that response, I tried to be nice and not walk out of my room in that type of pj set anymore.
However, I still wore it. Every now and then, I would be in our kitchen in Boxers and a t-shirt just eating cereal in the morning, and he would continue to complain if he saw me. I didn’t think I should plan when I go into our shared spaces around him. Finally, I went to my sister and she agreed that he was being ridiculous. Apparently, that caused a huge fight between them, and I felt guilty that I caused it. So… AITA for still wearing boxers and a T-shirt as Pj’s even though i knew he didn’t like it? ETA: I no longer live with my sister, and she is no longer with that guy. ETA: Yes, this was a long time ago, and the problem is over. However, it’s still weighing on me, and I was hoping this would possibly help me see his side better. UPDATE: Thanks for the honesty, everyone. Seeing the various perspectives was very enlightening.
