I work from home most of the time and during my lunch breaks I’ll tend to quickly make lunch and then go for a walk to get some fresh air. My girlfriend sometimes works from home and sometimes works in the office. She was off work sick today so was spending most of the day in bed. The weather was really bad so I decided not to go out on my lunch break.
I made my girlfriend a hot drink and asked if she needed anything and she said she was fine. I sat with her for a while when I ate my lunch and then went into the living room. I put a video game on and thought I’d go on it for 30 mins before I get back to work. My gf came into the living room and asked if I was being serious. I asked what she meant and she just said she’s feeling really unwell and I’m in here gaming.
I mentioned that I had asked if she needed anything and spent time with her so it’s not like I was ignoring her. She said it’s just rude that I’m sitting on a video game when she isn’t well. I asked what else she wanted to me to and she just shrugged, repeated that I’m being rude and not really caring and went back to bed.
AITA for playing video games during my lunch break?
