I work from home pretty much every day and my partner has recently started a new job where she works from home around 50% of the time. We live in a 3 bedroom apartment so we use the 2 spare rooms as offices so we each have our own space. My gf is working from home today and told me she had a 4 hour long meeting this morning and was planning to work from the living room.
She said this means I’ll only be able to come into the living room in the last 10-15 mins of my lunch break. I pointed out she has an office that is supposed to be for work and that she can’t just expect me not use my living/dining room over lunch. She just said I could always have lunch in the office or go out for an hour.
I disagreed and told her she has an office specifically for work and that she can’t just take over the living room whenever she feels like it. She just said she doesn’t want to spend all morning in the office so I just asked what the point of having it is. I said that if she was actually in an office instead of working from home, she wouldn’t be able to just take over communal areas.
She said I was being inconsiderate and that the chair in her office can get uncomfortable after being in it for a while. I pointed out she should get a more comfortable chair then instead of kicking me out of the living room but she just said I was being unreasonable. AITA for wanting to use my living room during my lunch break?
